The problem
Small clubs handle memberships, fees, schedules and attendance with spreadsheets and scattered messages, which exhausts volunteers and loses money.
The solution
A simple web app: online registration and payments, class scheduling, attendance tracking, member messaging and a financial dashboard.
Your customers
Clubs and associations of 30 to 500 members: sport, dance, martial arts, music, theatre, often run by volunteers.
How you make money
Subscription of 20 to 80 € per month depending on members, with an optional small percentage on online payments.
Competition
Free spreadsheets and messaging, large association management suites, generic booking tools and federation-built solutions.
Who has an edge
A developer who has run a club, or a club manager plus developer duo, knows the real pain points and can target a precise niche.
The risks
Competitive market with small budgets; slow sales cycle with volunteers; protecting member and minors’ data; time-consuming support.
The first 3 steps
- Interview fifteen club managers about their current tools
- Build a no-code prototype for three pilot clubs
- Set a price and charge from the pilot onwards
How the numbers are calculated
Example in a high-income eurozone country, at month 12: revenue €2,550 − costs €750 = €1,800 net per month. Revenue: 55 clubs × €45 + €75 of payment commissions. Costs: hosting, development tools, advertising, payment fees, social contributions. For other countries, Mundyo adjusts the starting budget to the price level (World Bank) and the income to prices and customers' purchasing power, then converts at the day's exchange rate.
