When Matfact is a better fit
- You want attendance as the source of truth with QR, kiosk, and coach fallback.
- You need configurable ranks without sport-specific lock-in.
- You want transparent SaaS pricing around 49€/gym/month instead of stacked modules.
Is Matfact a full Kicksite replacement?
Matfact focuses on attendance, progression, and academy operations — not a full CRM/marketing suite. Choose based on whether you need Engage-style automation or mat-floor clarity.
Can we migrate from spreadsheets?
Yes. Most academies start from roster CSV and configure ranks in an afternoon.
