BJJLINK vs Gym Admin

BJJLINK is paid academy-management software for Jiu-Jitsu schools, combining student records, scheduling, billing, curriculum and marketing on Android, iOS and the web. Students can reserve classes, track attendance and follow belt progress, while scheduling also covers seminars, belt tests and competitions. Academy tools handle membership renewals, check-ins, waivers and documents, plus recurring payments, family billing, in-app purchases and failed-payment recovery. The marketing suite supports website lead capture, automated email follow-ups, referrals, and embedded forms for leads and class signups. Instructors can build structured lesson plans, customizable syllabi, technique flowcharts and video libraries. BJJLINK Connect adds schedules, announcements, attendance, belt tracking and training history for grapplers. The BLACK plan costs $49 a month billed monthly plus a 1% service fee; CORAL costs $149 a month billed monthly with no service fee. A 30-day trial, guided onboarding, migration assistance and 24/7 setup support are advertised.

Gym Admin manages gym billing and payments, class schedules, attendance, self check-in, rank progression, and student communications. The maker describes it for martial arts academies, dojos, boutique academies, and gyms. Memberships can bill weekly, every two weeks, or monthly.

Digital liability waivers can be signed on a phone or front-desk tablet and stored in the cloud with student profiles. Gym Admin connects to Stripe and supports cards, ACH direct debit, Apple Pay, and Google Pay. Transactions carry a 1% fee plus Stripe processing fees, with ACH fees capped at $5. The free Starter plan covers up to 50 active students. Pro costs $59/month and includes unlimited students, up to 1,000 emails monthly, and kiosk mode with a custom logo.
