Boxing club software: guide to managing and developing

Why boxing club software has become essential

A well-managed boxing club is first and foremost a running schedule, full classes, and returning members. Boxing club software centralizes your operations and reduces the mental load. You save time and better transform your prospects.

• A single tool to reserve, collect, schedule, track and communicate.
• Fewer absences, more recurrence, better predictable income.
• Decisions guided by data, not by feeling.

Discover EKKLO to see how a single platform aligns your planning, your offers and your growth.

Centralize daily life without friction

No more going back and forth between spreadsheet, messaging and payment app. The boxing club software links your offers, your planning and your collections. Members book in seconds, you control everything from a clear interface.

A member experience that builds loyalty

Automatic reminders reduce no-shows. Waiting lists fill your slots. Training history and messages strengthen the coach-athlete bond. Result: more retention and positive word of mouth.

Decide with reliable figures

Fill rate, cancellation rate, average basket, lifetime value: boxing club software provides you with the right indicators. You adjust offers, schedules and staff knowingly.

The decisive criteria (1/2): planning, payment, coaching, communication

Before choosing, validate the fundamentals. Good boxing club software must be solid on these four pillars.

Hassle-free reservations

• Recurring slots and one-off events in just a few clicks.
• Automatic waiting lists and intelligent notifications.
• Configurable cancellation policies, to protect your time.
• Capacity by zone (ring, bag room, mobility zone) to avoid overloads.

Collections that follow your model

• Subscriptions, session books, drop-ins, paid courses and sparrings.
• SEPA direct debits, cards, Apple/Google Pay, recurring payments.
• Promo codes, sponsorship and reduced rates (students, families).
• Compliant invoices, accounting export, VAT managed painlessly.

Coaching and progress monitoring

• Boxing programs and physical preparation: rounds, EMOM, AMRAP, bags, shadow, mobility.
• Load, RPE, cardio zones, histories per athlete.
• Internal video library, links to your VODs or lives.
• Recurring tests (lactate, Cooper, CMJ jump) and seasonal comparisons.

Integrated communication

• Messages 1-1 and groups (beginners, competitors, U18).
• Push and email for reminders, internship announcements, new offers.
• Dynamic segments: inactive 30 days, new 7 days, top attendance.

The decisive criteria (2/2): data, brand, automations, compliance

The best boxing club software goes further: it helps you grow without adding of complexity.

Useful analytics, not gimmicks

• Filling by hour/day/week and by coach.
• No-show rate, trial → subscription conversion rate, churn.
• Cohorts by offer to see which ones resonate best.

Brand and experience

• Customization of colors, logos and registration pages.
• Clear showcase for your offers and events.
• Fast and intuitive mobile journey for members.

Time-saving automations

• Welcome sequences: registration, advice, first lesson.
• No-show reminders, birthdays, inactive reactivation.
• Contextualized upsell: move from notebook to monthly, or add PPG.

Integrations and compliance

• Calendar connections, CRM, newsletter if necessary.
• GDPR, SCA (payment), double authentication.
• Data backup and portability in the event of a change of tool.

In the middle of the choice, stay the course: technology must remain at the service of coaching. To go further, here is how use technology to optimize your sessions.

• Time freed: ~3h/week, reinvested in local prospecting.

Leisure program vs competitors
