- Members expect a modern native app, while staff need a responsive CRM on phone, tablet and desktop.
- You want Stripe-powered checkout and renewals alongside family profiles, scheduling, attendance and progression.
Choose the alternative when
European combat-sports gyms that want one unlimited plan, multi-currency support and built-in tax and invoicing workflows.
What the alternative does well
- Unlimited members and all features in one plan
- Combat-sports ranks, waitlists and no-show workflows
- European invoicing, tax, multi-currency and six-language support
What to budget or plan for
- The lowest price requires annual billing
- Online payments carry a 1% MAAT fee plus Stripe fees
- There is a seven-day trial rather than a permanent free plan

Switching
Moving from MaatApp to MatSync
You do not have to do the migration yourself. Send the MatSync team whatever data you can get out of MaatApp, in any format, and we rebuild your club inside MatSync for you.
- 01
Get your data out of MaatApp
Whatever you can export is enough — a CSV, a spreadsheet, a PDF report or an admin export. You do not need to clean it up or match any template.
- 02
Send it to the MatSync team
Hand the file over and tell us how your classes and plans are organised. This is the only step that needs time from you.
- 03
We rebuild your club
We import members, recreate your class schedule and set up subscription plans to match what members already pay, then hand it back for you to check.
- 04
Invite your members
Members download the app and set a password. Payment mandates held by MaatApp have to be re-authorised by each member, because payment details cannot legally be transferred between providers.
Setup help is included, and the free plan means you can have your club fully rebuilt and verified before you pay anything.

Questions before you switch.
01Which costs less to start, MatSync or MaatApp?+

02Does MaatApp support belts and progression?+

04Are the prices and features guaranteed?+
No. This comparison was checked on 20 August 2026 using the official sources linked on the page. Prices, taxes, processing rates, regions and product packaging can change, so confirm the final quote before purchasing.

MatSync can help you plan the move. Confirm export access, the fields you need, payment-token limitations and the migration scope before cancelling your current service.
