Switch to gym software built for martial arts — no exit fees, no per-location pricing, and no monthly subscription that spikes as you grow.
A flat monthly floor — $49/mo + 1% on payments, or $149/mo — runs whether it's peak season or a slow January.
One price rule for every gym: 2% on memberships ($2 minimum), 3% on seminars/merch/drop-ins, $0 on POS. No tiers to decode, no quote to chase.
The member app is branded BJJLINK Connect, not your gym's own brand.
Every feature included — white-labeled member app, AI churn alerts, waivers, training journal. Nothing is sold back to you as an add-on.
Payments are brokered through their integrated processing, so the merchant relationship isn't a Stripe account you own.
Done-for-you migration, included in the one-time $499 setup: we import your roster from your current software, set up Stripe Connect with you on a call, and theme the app to your brand.

ComparePhilosophically close — both reject generic gym software for jiu-jitsu, both offer flat-ish pricing, both are built by people who train. Mechanically different in three ways. (1) BJJLink is BJJ-only; OLM is multi-discipline with portable per-discipline ranks. (2) BJJLink runs payments through their own processor; OLM uses Stripe Connect Standard so you own the merchant relationship. (3) OLM has a training journal + AI coach for members; BJJLink doesn't. BJJLink has a curriculum builder; OLM doesn't yet.
Depends on your size. At a 50-member gym charging $150/mo, OLM is ~$150/mo (50 × $3) vs BJJLink BLACK at ~$124/mo ($49 + 1% of $7,500) or CORAL at $149/mo flat. At 200 members, OLM is ~$600/mo vs BJJLink BLACK ~$349/mo or CORAL $149/mo flat. BJJLink CORAL becomes a clear winner at scale; OLM's pay-as-you-grow wins at the bottom and during slow months. Run your own numbers — there's no universal answer.
OLM. BJJLink is BJJ-only by design — one rank per member, BJJ-belt-shaped progression. OLM treats every discipline as a first-class rank with its own promotion lineage. A muay thai pra-jiad goes in the muay thai rank; a BJJ blue belt goes in the BJJ rank; both belong to the same member.
BJJLink has a curriculum builder tied to belt progression — that's a real feature gap on OLM today. It's on the roadmap. If a structured curriculum-LMS is core to how you teach, BJJLink is more ready out of the box. If you teach from a flexible week-by-week class plan and don't need a built-in LMS, OLM works fine.
OLM uses Stripe Connect Standard, which means you (the gym) are the merchant of record on Stripe. Your bank account, your customer payment history, your dispute relationship. If you ever leave OLM, Stripe and the customer payment data stay yours. BJJLink's integrated processing means the merchant relationship is brokered through them. Some gyms prefer the simplicity of one bill; others prefer keeping their Stripe account portable.
Yes via CSV export. Member roster, contact info, and active subscriptions migrate cleanly. Curriculum and rank progress typically need to be recreated since the data shape differs. Belt rank itself is a single field per discipline — straightforward to bulk-import.
