BJJ gym software: belts, stripes, mat hours & memberships

BJJ gyms: every stripe earned, every mat hour counted. Belts, stripes, check-ins and billing in one.

Stripes on a whiteboard, mat hours in a coach's head and promotions that sneak up on everyone. We build jiu-jitsu gym systems that track every student's journey from white belt up and handle the billing while you're rolling.

Looking for BJJ gym software or a jiu-jitsu academy management system?

Most martial arts software is built for kids karate with a BJJ skin bolted on. Jiu-jitsu runs on mat hours, stripes, gi and no-gi classes, open mats and competition teams. We build a system around how your academy actually runs, from the trial class to the black belt.

Wollopit builds membership systems, grading trackers, apps and websites for BJJ gyms around how your gym actually runs. We connect the tools you already use, replace the ones charging you per member and look after the lot on our own servers, so you can stay on the mats.

01The problems

What we hear from BJJ gyms

Does your BJJ gym have these problems? Here's how we'd fix them.

Most BJJ gyms we talk to are paying monthly fees for gym software that doesn't understand belts, gradings or fight teams, then patching the gaps with whiteboards and group chats.

06How we work

The process

Some people dip their toe in. We turn up in a rebreather.

We get properly below the surface of your BJJ gym: the systems, the busy days and the jobs everyone hates. Then we fix the bits that matter most first.

  1. 01

    Think

    We spend time with the people doing the work, see where the hours go and work out what's actually slowing you down.

  2. 02

    Archi-tech

    We plan it before writing code: your data, customers, payments, the tools you keep, hosting and cost.

  3. 03

    Build

    Real engineering, shown to you early and often. Usually the most painful bit first, so you get a win quickly.

  4. 04

    Look after

    We host it, maintain it and keep improving it. When something breaks you call the people who built it.

07Questions

FAQ

Things BJJ gyms ask us.

Something else on your mind? Ring 0423 011 252 and ask the people who'd build it.

Can it track gi and no-gi separately?

Yes. Classes are tagged by type so mat hours can be counted separately or together. Coaches see a student's real history before a promotion instead of relying on memory.

How much does it cost?

It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand your BJJ gym. No surprise invoices, no lock-in and you own what we build.

We already use gym software. Do we have to switch?

No. If it's working we build around it: the website, grading tracking, the missing features and the integrations. If the per-member fees or limits are holding you back we'll show you what your own system would look like first.

Can members book classes and check in from their phone?

Yes. Everything is built phone-first: class bookings, check-ins, payments, progress and timetable changes in a couple of taps.

Who looks after it once it's built?

We do. We host it on our own managed servers and keep it updated and secure. When you need something you ring the people who built it.

We already have systems. Can you upgrade them instead of starting again?

Usually, yes. Most BJJ gyms we work with keep what's working and upgrade the rest in stages. We move your data across, connect the old and new while we switch and retire the old system only when the new one is proven.
