Managing memberships shouldn't be difficult - but for many clubs, it is.
Bowls clubs have long relied on spreadsheets, paper records, and generic software to track memberships, payments, and bookings. These outdated methods can often lead to lost records, missed renewals, and poor communication. These typically contribute to administrative headaches, frustrated club managers, and disengaged members.

It's a purpose-built solution made for the unique needs of bowls clubs. Bowlr takes care of subscriptions, rink bookings, and club communications.

1. What is a membership management system, and why do bowls clubs need one?
A membership management system helps clubs track member details, subscriptions, and payments. It also makes operations easier, like rink bookings and scheduling competitions. Bowls clubs benefit as they reduce admin time, automate renewals, and improve communication. Manual processes can lead to errors, missed payments, and poor record-keeping. A dedicated system like Bowlr ensures all club information is centralised, secure, and easy to manage. This allows administrators to focus on growing their club rather than handling paperwork.
2. How does Bowlr simplify membership renewals and payments?
Bowlr simplifies membership renewals by sending reminders before subscriptions end, resulting in fewer missed payments. It also includes a real-time payment tracking system. This helps administrators track which members have paid and who still owe fees. The platform integrates with secure UK payment systems so members can pay online without hassle. This lowers the need for manual follow-ups and enhances financial stability. Clubs can focus on giving their members a great experience instead of chasing late payments.
3. Can members book rinks and competitions online using Bowlr?
Yes, Bowlr offers an online booking system. This system lets members book rinks and enter competitions from any location. It updates availability in real-time, preventing double bookings and scheduling conflicts. Members can also view upcoming fixtures, tournament brackets, and match results--all in one place. This cuts out phone reservations, sign-up sheets, and manual scheduling. As a result, club operations are smoother and more efficient for everyone, from players to administrators.
4. Is Bowlr's membership management software compliant with UK data protection laws?
Yes, Bowlr is fully GDPR-compliant. All member information, financial data, and communications are stored safely and kept secure. The system uses role-based access control. This means only authorised club administrators can handle sensitive data. All information is encrypted and backed up, reducing the risk of data breaches or accidental loss. According to the ICO, clubs handling member data must follow strict data protection regulations. Bowlr ensures compliance, helping clubs avoid fines and maintain member trust.
5. How does Bowlr compare to generic membership management software?
Unlike generic membership management software, Bowlr is explicitly designed for bowls clubs. It offers features such as rink booking, competition management, and automated membership renewals. These are things that standard systems usually don't provide. It has also been approved by Bowls England and the EIBA, ensuring that it meets the unique needs of UK bowls clubs. Many generic systems need a lot of customisation. Bowlr, on the other hand, works right away. This makes it the best choice for clubs that want to simplify their operations without added complexity.
