DojoMesh

What DojoMesh is

DojoMesh is an academy management platform for martial arts schools, bringing together billing, attendance, belt tracking, messaging and a website. It supports recurring billing and payment tracking through Stripe, Square and PayPal, as well as cash, checks, bank transfers and Interac e-Transfer. Communication features include two-way SMS and email conversations, automated follow-up and win-back campaigns, and payment reminders. Academy tools include configurable belt and grading ladders, attendance and AWOL alerts, class scheduling, a combat timer, pro-shop inventory and event registration. The service offers API access for custom integrations, and members, payment history, attendance and belt records can be exported to CSV, including after cancellation. The signup page says Stripe handles card details and DojoMesh does not see or store card numbers. Its site labels the service PCI compliant, SSL secured and at 99.9% uptime. The member portal runs in a phone browser, but a branded App Store app is not available. The monthly plan costs $50.00 per month after the first 60 days free; a $75.00 per month plan adds a custom-designed website with hosting and managed updates.

Who it suits

DojoMesh is aimed at martial arts academies, including BJJ, karate, taekwondo, judo, wrestling, kickboxing and MMA schools. It suits schools seeking tools for membership payments, attendance and belt progression.

Limits

There is no free plan. The standard plan is $50 a month after its first 60 days free; the 75.00 USD monthly plan adds a custom-designed website with hosting and managed updates.

Verdict
