Mat Track offers:

✅ 0% per-transaction fees
✅ Purpose-built BJJ/MMA attendance & trial workflows
✅ Multi-location tools that scale
✅ Family accounts + group billing
✅ Deep Stripe sync
✅ Predictive retention analytics

All in one streamlined platform.

1. No booking required — perfect for BJJ, MMA, and Muay Thai

bsport requires members to book every class and expects:

• A branded app

• Time-slot selection

• Capacity rules

• Attendance tied to bookings

This is perfect for:

• Yoga

• Pilates

• Spinning

• HIIT

• Barre

But martial arts doesn’t work this way.

Mat Track removes all friction:

• No reservations

• QR check-in

• Manual FOH check-in

• Kids/teens logic

• Family check-in

• Attendance heatmaps

• Front-desk simplicity

One tap → student is checked in.
That’s martial arts.

2. True trial → member conversion funnel (bsport doesn’t have one)

bsport was built for pre-booked intro classes — not martial arts trials.

Its trial flows are based on:

• Discounts

• Introductory class packs

• App-based booking

This doesn’t match BJJ or Muay Thai.

Mat Track has the most advanced martial arts trial system:

• Location-specific trial pages

• Auto-generated QR trial codes

• Walk-in trials (no booking needed)

• Automated confirmation emails

• Trial attendance tracking

• Trial → “trial completed” → paying progression

• FOH “next step” prompt on every trial

• One-tap payment link

• Family trial bundles under one parent

If your academy relies on trials for growth, this is non-negotiable.

3. Family accounts: a martial arts essential that bsport doesn’t handle

bsport’s architecture is built for individual fitness users.

In martial arts:

• One parent pays for multiple kids

• Kids train several times a week

• Parents want a simple check-in experience

• Kids programmes dominate revenue

But bsport:

• Has no simple family check-in

• Doesn’t offer family trials

• Doesn’t support unified billing workflows

• Doesn’t handle multiple family members elegantly

Mat Track solves all of this:

• One parent → unlimited children

• One payment method

• Family trials

• Family check-in in one tap

• Parent receives all communications

• Beautiful FOH workflows

It’s night and day.

4. Multi-location support built for martial arts — not boutique fitness

bsport’s multi-location features were designed for boutique studios that operate independently with separate timetables.

Martial arts academies are different:

• Students train across locations

• Parents move kids between clubs

• Coaches rotate between academies

• All locations share a brand identity

Mat Track handles this perfectly:

• Multiple Stripe accounts under one organisation

• Multi-location attendance and retention analytics

• Cross-location training tracking

• Location-specific trial pages

• Staff permissions by club

• Unified or location-specific memberships

You can scale from 1 → 2 → 5 → 10 academies without friction.

5. Retention intelligence that bsport lacks

bsport offers basic analytics — but nothing customised for martial arts retention, especially kids.

bsport gives:

• Attendance reports

• Membership status

• Revenue figures

Mat Track gives:

• Attendance frequency decay alerts

• Predictive churn scoring

• Kids retention insights

• Multi-location retention dashboard

• At-risk member lists

• FOH follow-up prompts

• Clear member status system

This is how you prevent churn before it happens.

6. Front-of-House workflows built for martial arts chaos

bsport is designed for owner-led fitness studios where staff roles are light.

But martial arts operations rely heavily on FOH staff:

• Checking in 40+ kids in 5 minutes

• Managing families

• Handling trials

• Resolving delinquent payments

• Converting walk-ins

• Supporting multiple evening classes

bsport wasn’t designed for this.

Mat Track’s FOH tools include:

• Quick check-in view

• Delinquency alerts

• “Next Step” assistant

• QR trial scanning

• Family check-in

• Family billing info

• Trial-stage status

• Payment links surfaced immediately

It dramatically reduces FOH headaches.

7. Retention insights PushPress doesn’t offer

Retention is the heartbeat of martial arts academies.

Mat Track includes:

• Predictive churn scoring

• At-risk member lists

• Behaviour-based retention signals

• Kids retention tracking

• Staff follow-up prompts

• Cross-location retention reports

PushPress offers basic attendance reports — nothing as deep.

8. Designed for real Front-of-House teams

Mat Track:

• Displays actionable next-step boxes

• Shows trial status, payment links, time preferences

• Highlights delinquent payments

• Provides clean, fast check-in views

• Reduces taps and training time

• Offers restricted staff permissions

• Gives daily to-do workflows

PushPress assumes owner-operators.
Mat Track assumes a full team.
