********** IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ **********

We're sunsetting ClubManagerbyBMABA in favour of our all-new, modern and future proofed MyBMABA Club Manager.

The new platform has more generous capacity for free use, comes with loads of awesome and ground-breaking new features, everything offered by ClubManagerbyBMABA, and more.

As soon as our new MyBMABA Club Management Platform has caught up with the current full set of features in our Wordpress plugin, we will be sunsetting the Wordpress plugin.

We strongly recommend setting up your Club Management Platform in the MyBMABA Club Manager.

ClubManager by BMABA is a Wordpress plugin that contains within it the power to manage all aspects of your martial arts club. Be that accepting payments, managing attendance, tracking grade, logging claims or so much more in between.

There's just a couple of super-basic things you'll need to do to get started.


If you DON'T already have a Wordpress website

The first thing you'll need is a Wordpress website on which you can run ClubManager. Don't worry if you don't already have one - we can help! We offer our members WordpressbyBMABA free of charge. This is a superb Wordpress hosting setup that allows you to instantly get setup and started.

How do I setup my account with WordpressbyBMABA?

Head over to https://bmaba.club/register and setup access. As soon as you have your Wordpress site live, you can come back here to continue.

Remember to visit mybmaba.org.uk/redeem first, to access your codes needed to sign up free of charge!

Here is a super-simple guide to setting up the entire process from start to finish - WordpressbyBMABA through to ClubManager;

I've done that. How do I start using ClubManager?

Once you're logged into your Wordpress website, you'll see ClubManagerbyBMABA on the menu.

Now you have your website ready to go, with ClubManager pre-installed, you just need to activate your licence.

Click here to setup an account with ClubManagerbyBMABA to obtain your licence.

Remember to visit mybmaba.org.uk/redeem and make sure you have your premium code ready to go to redeem the correct tier of licence!

Once you have your licence key, you can enter that in your Wordpress dashboard (under ClubManager > Licence) and you're then all set and the site is fully live.

If you DO already have a Wordpress website

If you already have a Wordpress website, you can simply activate a ClubManagerbyBMABA licence for free to download the plugin and get started.

System Requirements

  1. Wordpress 6.0 or higher.

  2. PHP 8.1

  3. IonCube needs to be enabled (see below)

  4. WooCommerce plugin installed and active.
