The Coacha alternative for UK clubs.
Coacha is UK sports club software covering 25-plus sports including martial arts, with a low flat subscription and per-transaction payment fees on top. OurClub works differently. There is no monthly fee, just one all-in percentage of what you process, card fees included, with every feature and the member app in the box.
You pay nothing until your club takes money.
At a glance.
- OurClub
- UK-built club management for any sport: memberships, payments, class scheduling, attendance, safeguarding and a native member app, plus gradings and licensing where the sport uses them. You pay a single rate from 4.25% of what you process, tapering as your volume grows, with no fixed monthly cost.
- Coacha
- Premium £36/month (£18 for the first three months for new customers); Custom £60/month adds branding, B2B invoicing and the store. Payments cost extra on top of the subscription: card at 2.5% + 20p per transaction, Direct Debit at 2.2% + 24p. SMS is billed at 4.9p per text.

Switching questions.
How does OurClub pricing compare with Coacha?
Coacha is £36 a month plus their payment fees of 2.5% + 20p on card collections - so a 100-member club taking £3,000 a month pays roughly £36 + £95 in fees. OurClub has no monthly fee and one all-in percentage with card fees included, which works out at about £91 on the founding ladder for the same club.
Coacha covers 25 sports - does OurClub cover as many?
Breadth is not what separates us: OurClub has 41 club types, each opening with the vocabulary, grade ladder and starting timetable its own sport uses. The difference shows after setup. Licence records, kiosk check-in, a club shop and safeguarded messaging are in the OurClub rate, where Coacha holds its store and branding back for the £60 Custom plan and bills texts at 4.9p each.
Can I switch from Coacha to OurClub?
Yes. Export your member data and our structured importer brings across members, plans and classes. Members securely re-authorise payments at first login.
