Look for software with built-in digital waivers, including parent-signed waivers for minors, so guardians can sign online at sign-up and every document is stored against the student's profile. 1club captures parent-signed waivers for minors and keeps them tied to the family account, so you always know who has signed and what's outstanding.
What is martial arts software?
Martial arts software is one system that runs a dojo day-to-day. It handles student sign-ups, attendance, belt and stripe tracking, billing, and class scheduling in one place.
Why martial arts academy owners choose 1club
Zero-friction automated billing
Automated billing collects tuition for you. 1club flags expiring memberships and failed payments, then sends students a secure link to update their details in seconds.
