Club management, all of it

Your club is busy. Let the back office keep up.

Beckon Club is the complete back office for your club: members, contracts, direct-debit dues, classes and appointments, check-in and team. One system, whether you run a fitness club, a tennis club, a dance school or a sports association. You pay by member count – twenty cents excl. VAT for each of your first 250, and the rate halves with every band after that.

20 cents per member and month at most, excl. VAT, in bands · the rate halves with every band · no feature behind a higher band · cancel monthly

The Beckon Club overview: the key figures of a demo club with twelve months of history

What Beckon Club does

One place for everything that keeps a club running

From the first enquiry to the final cancellation, every step runs through the same system. The membership decides what someone may do – which classes, which dues, which hours – so you maintain the membership and everything else follows from it.

Members

One page per person, not four programs

A single record: membership, payment standing, visits, class bookings, notes, documents and consents. When someone asks at the front desk "where do I stand?", the answer is one screen, not three logins. Families, corporate deals and add-on people hang off each other, so you never maintain the same household twice.

  • Trial, freeze, notice period and rejoining are states the system knows, not notes someone wrote
  • Documents and consents live on the member, not in a binder
  • Search that survives a typo, and duplicates that announce themselves

Memberships

Memberships that cover everything you actually offer

Annual with a minimum term, rolling monthly, a ten-class pass, day passes, student and corporate rates, duo and family, a joining fee, a service charge, a promotional discount that expires on its own. Dues run monthly or yearly. Each membership carries its rules – term, renewal, notice period, which classes and which hours it unlocks – and works out the dues from them.

  • Switch, upgrade or downgrade on a given date, pro-rated without a spreadsheet
  • Freezes that push the end date out by exactly as long as they lasted
  • Signed digitally, on the tablet at the front desk or on the member’s own phone

Dues

Dues in one run – and failures you actually see

One run a month, started with a click, invoices everything due and builds the SEPA direct-debit file that you upload to your online banking: mandates, pre-notification, due dates and numbering included. When a debit comes back it does not vanish into the bank portal: with the bank statement you upload it becomes an open item on that member, with a returned-payment fee, and if dunning is switched on it enters the dunning ladder. Every month gives you one figure: what came in, and what did not.

  • Direct debit, transfer, card and cash at the front desk all land in the same ledger
  • Dunning stages with deadlines, fees and instalment plans: you start the dunning run instead of writing every reminder yourself
  • Open items per member – and a collection rate per month you can compare

Classes & appointments

A timetable that backfills itself

Series, rooms, capacity and instructors in one plan. Members book in the member area, or you book them at the front desk – full classes take a waiting list, and when somebody drops out the next person moves up without anyone being asked. Whether they may book at all is decided by their membership, not by a shout across the front desk. One-to-one sessions and consultations sit in the same calendar as appointments.

  • A waiting list that promotes on its own, cancellation cut-offs and a no-show rule
  • Entitlements: five classes a month, hall times at weekends only, off-peak until 3 pm
  • Instructor swap, cancellation or room change in one step for everyone booked, with a notification list

Member area

The member area – your members do it themselves

Your members sign in with a link sent by email, no password needed, in the browser and on their phone as well. There they see their membership, their payment standing and their visits, book classes, request new bank details (you confirm the new mandate) and request a freeze – themselves, at any hour, without asking at the front desk. New members join online and sign on their phone; you confirm the contract with one click, or let it confirm itself.

  • Online join with signature, mandate and confirmation email in one pass
  • Every member sees only their own data, never anyone else’s
  • No surcharge: the member area is in the price, at every band

Enquiries become members, and you can see where they stop

Every enquiry – from your website, from a trial session, from a member’s referral – becomes a contact with a source, a status and a task that belongs to somebody. You can see where it stalls: how many trial sessions end in a signature, which campaign brings members rather than just appointments. Cancellations get a reason, and anyone who has not been in for three weeks shows up on a list before they quit.

  • Tasks with due dates instead of sticky notes: follow up, call back, end the trial week
  • Referrals, vouchers and campaigns with a code, a run time and a measurable result
  • Win-back: former members stay reachable for as long as they allow it

How a member moves through

Captured once, and the rest hangs off it

There is no point on this path where something gets carried by hand into a second program. That is the whole trick.

  1. Interest

    The enquiry arrives from your website, a trial session or a referral, and becomes a contact with a source, a status and a task that belongs to somebody.

    Sales
  2. Signing

    Pick the membership, check the details, sign – on the tablet at the front desk or on their own phone. The mandate, the confirmation and the contract file are produced in the act, not afterwards.

    Contract
  3. Dues

    The membership works out its own dues. You start the monthly run with a click; returns become open items on the member and, if dunning is switched on, enter the dunning ladder.

    Money
  4. Day to day

    Book a class, request a freeze, ask for new bank details – the member does it in the member area. And whoever is allowed in, gets in.

    Operations
  5. Staying

    Anyone who has not been in for a while appears on a list before they cancel. Anyone who does cancel gives a reason, and that reason turns up again in the reporting.

    Retention

Access

Whoever is allowed in, gets in

For a club, access is not a technology question – it is a membership question. Beckon Club knows the membership, so it also knows who may walk in at six in the morning and who only from three in the afternoon, who is behind on their dues and who has handed in notice. You maintain the membership, not a second list by the door.

If you want the door and the administration from one hand, you can pair Beckon Club with Beckon Access – a separate product with its own price. Without pairing, Beckon Club runs your club just as completely.

The membership decides

Off-peak until 3 pm, weekends only, an area as an add-on, blocked while dues are outstanding: what a member may do is written in their membership. Change the membership and access changes with it – nobody has to go and update a list.

At the entrance, the membership counts

Many clubs open earlier and close later than they are staffed. At the terminal by the entrance, Beckon Club checks whether a member may come in right now and records the visit. Opening the door itself takes an optional pairing, see below.

You can see who came

Visits land on the member record and in the statistics: who comes how often, when it is full, which time slot has earned a second class. And who has not been in for three weeks.

Price

You pay by member – and the more you have, the less each one costs

You pay per active member and month, and the price comes in bands: with every band, the rate per member goes down. Paused and trial members count as active. The calculator shows what that means for your club.

200

Drag the slider to your member count, in steps of ten. More than 2,000? That is where the slider stops, not the rate card – write to us and we will work it out.

€40.00

Per month · excl. VAT

€0.20 per member

How that adds up

Club Management€40.00

  • 1–250 200 × €0.20 €40.00

Cancel monthly. No setup fee, no minimum term, and no feature kept behind a higher band. The licence is free until the last day of the month in which you create your club. For now, invoices are issued by Petar Beck e.U. through Beckon Billing, until Beckon GmbH has its VAT ID.

Included at every band

  • Every feature in the list above
  • Unlimited users on your team
  • Member area for your members
  • Online joining through your own website
  • Direct-debit collection and dunning
  • All reports and exports
  • An API for your own integrations
  • Import assistant for moving over from your current system
  • All updates

Why a sliding rate and not tiers?

Because tiers hurt in exactly the wrong place: signing your 251st member should not arrive as a step change on the invoice. Here every member is priced individually, the way income tax works – the rate falls band by band instead of jumping. From 1,501 members the rate then stays put, at 2.5 cents per member per month, excl. VAT.

What is not in it

Whatever your bank or payment provider charges for direct debits and card payments, you pay them – we add nothing on top. SMS to your members cost €0.10 each (up to 160 characters), excl. VAT. Door hardware on site is not part of the monthly price. And VAT: every price on this site is a net price, excl. VAT.

Questions people actually ask

Before you ask

Which clubs is Beckon Club for?

For clubs that manage members, contracts and dues and offer classes or appointments: fitness clubs, tennis and padel clubs, dance schools, sports associations. The core is the same for everyone. What only one kind of club needs comes as a package you can switch on. The first one is the Fitness package.

What does it cost at my member count?

Work it out yourself in the pricing section – the slider shows the total and every band it is built from. For orientation, all excl. VAT: 200 members cost €40.00 a month, 500 cost €75.00, 1,000 cost €112.50 and 2,000 cost €150.00. From 1,501 the rate stays put at 2.5 cents a member; above that the price keeps growing steadily. If you send SMS, they add €0.10 each, also excl. VAT. What your bank charges for direct debits, you pay them.

What happens when my club grows?

The rate per member halves with every band and stops falling at 1,501, at 2.5 cents. Going from 1,000 to 2,000 members takes your price from €112.50 to €150.00, excl. VAT. There is no hard edge anywhere where the invoice jumps – every member is priced individually, the way income tax works.

What is the Fitness package?

An optional package for fitness clubs: training plans with exercises, sets and loads, an exercise library, body measurements with a trend (only with the member’s consent) and goals. You switch it on in the club settings when you need it. Without the package you see none of it, and it costs nothing extra.

Do I need Beckon Access for this?

No. Beckon Club runs your club completely without you changing anything at the door. Beckon Access is the optional pairing for when you want access and administration from one hand: then the membership in Beckon Club says who is allowed in. It is a separate product with its own price.

Can I move off my current system?

That is the normal case, not the exception. With the import assistant you bring over members, contracts, direct-debit mandates and payment standing yourself, from CSV files: it shows you a preview first, and you can undo a run. The import assistant is included in the price. Tell us which system you are on and we will tell you what carries over and what does not.

Can members book and join by themselves?

Both, in the browser. Book a class, cancel, join a waiting list, check the membership and payment standing, request new bank details, request a freeze – in the member area, which your members open with a link sent by email. And new members join through a link on your own website, signature and direct-debit mandate included.

Does this work for a small club as well as a large one?

The feature set is the same, and several sites run under one login. A small club does not have to set up what it does not need – but it also does not pay for the absence. If you are a very large group with processes of your own, talk to us before you sign.

How does Beckon Club handle data protection?

Member data belongs to the club, not to us. Access, export and erasure are available per member at the push of a button, consents sit on the member with a date, and who on the team changed what is on the record. When you create your club, you accept the terms and conditions and the data-processing agreement under Article 28 GDPR.

What is Beckon Club not?

Not a cash register, and not a marketplace that sends your members to other clubs. Beckon Club runs your club: members, contracts, dues, classes and appointments. Your member stays your member.

One price, one system, your club.

Write to us with what you run today and how many members you have. You will get a straight answer on what the import assistant can bring over and what it cannot.
