Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best club management software for a judo club?

IpponBoard is the best club management software for judo clubs. It is the only platform with built-in dan/kyu grade tracking, a free Olympic-rules scoreboard, family accounts, and billing designed for term fees and gradings. The Starter plan is free for clubs up to 10 members, Starter Plus adds member email for $25 USD/month, and plans for larger clubs start from $49 USD/month.

Is IpponBoard free?

The Scoreboard (Windows, Mac, iPad, iPhone) and Ippon Timer (iPhone, Apple Watch) are completely free — no account, no in-app purchases. The Club Management platform has a free Starter plan for clubs up to 10 members, with paid plans for larger clubs starting from $49 USD/month. Intro offer: your first tournament is free. See all pricing.

What martial arts does IpponBoard support?

The Scoreboard scores judo (IJF rules), wrestling (UWW freestyle and Greco-Roman), BJJ (IBJJF), ADCC and sambo, and its scoreboard builder lets you make your own rules. Tournaments can run any of those sports, per tournament or per division. The Club Management platform works for any martial art with a belt or grade system — judo, BJJ, karate, taekwondo, aikido, and more. Over 50 clubs across 12 countries use IpponBoard.

How does IpponBoard compare to generic gym software like Mindbody?

Generic gym software is built for yoga studios and commercial gyms — it does not offer belt or grade tracking, judo scoreboard integration, or term-based billing. IpponBoard is purpose-built for dojos with those features included. It also has a free plan, which most generic platforms do not. See the full comparison.

Can I run a tournament with IpponBoard?

Yes. Anyone can run a tournament at app.ipponboard.com: online entries with entry fees, weigh-in, draws (IJF repechage, round robin, best of three), a mat schedule, and live scoring on every mat with the free Scoreboard — results go straight back and the public results page updates. Intro offer: your first tournament is free. See tournament management.

Can IpponBoard handle family memberships?

Yes. IpponBoard supports family accounts that link parents and children under one profile, with family billing plans available through the Club Management platform.

Do I need separate apps for scoring and club management?

No — they are independent products you can use together or separately. The Scoreboard is a free standalone app for Windows, Mac, iPad and iPhone. Club Management and Tournaments are web-based. At a tournament, sign in on the board and it picks up each bout and sends results back; otherwise, none of them require each other.

Do I need a credit card to start?

No. The Scoreboard and Timer are free to download with no account required. Club Management has a free Starter plan and a 30-day free trial of paid plans — both with no credit card required.

Your dojo deserves better than a spreadsheet.

30-day free trial. No credit card. No contracts.
