Martial arts dojos

Belt progression, class packs, family memberships. One card handles all of it.

A digital membership and loyalty card in Apple Wallet for martial arts schools. Sell sessions upfront, track attendance automatically, and keep students progressing.

Belt tier visible on the membership card

A membership card that displays current belt level alongside membership status gives students a persistent reminder of where they are and where they're going.

Family memberships across multiple cards

Issue individual cards to each family member. Track attendance per student. Renewal reminders go to the parent's phone.

Grading milestones deserve a push notification

A broadcast push to all students approaching their next grading requirement drives attendance in the weeks before the assessment.

Push notifications

Your card talks to them. You set the rules once.

Win-back fires automatically when a card holder goes quiet. Geolocation nudges fire when they're within 100 meters of your door. Transaction confirmation fires on every scan. None of it requires anyone on your team to do anything.

  • Win-back push — 28-day silence trigger, always running
  • Geolocation push — 100m proximity, zero staff input
  • Transaction push — confirmation fires on every scan
  • Free, unlimited, on every plan

You're 2 stamps away from a free reward

A martial arts student who earns their next belt didn't just train. They committed. The card documents that commitment.

Martial arts loyalty is progression loyalty. Students don't come back because of a discount or a reward — they come back because they are working toward something. The dojo that makes that progression visible, acknowledges each milestone, and maintains communication when attendance lapses creates a retention dynamic that no other loyalty mechanic can replicate. A membership card that shows current grade, a push notification before a grading, and a win-back message when a student has been absent for a month are the digital equivalent of the instructor who knows every student by name. The infrastructure that makes a dojo feel like a community.

Digital membership and loyalty cards for martial arts dojos

Martial arts schools operate a loyalty model built on long-term student progression rather than short-term transaction frequency. A student who joins a Brazilian jiu-jitsu or karate school is not making a month-to-month decision — they are committing to a multi-year journey from white belt to black belt. The commercial value of each student compounds significantly over time, making retention at every stage of the progression the primary financial priority for dojo owners.

Digital membership cards for martial arts dojos deliver student status — including current belt or grade level — to Apple Wallet and Google Wallet alongside membership tier and renewal date. Students scan their phone at the dojo entrance. The Hardcards scanner app processes the check-in and logs the attendance automatically. Family memberships with multiple cards under one account allow parents to track all children's attendance from a single dashboard.

Attendance tracking is particularly valuable for martial arts schools where grading eligibility is tied to a minimum number of training sessions. A stamp card running alongside the membership tracks session attendance toward grading milestones, creating a visible progress indicator that motivates consistent attendance between belt assessments.

Push notifications serve multiple functions in the martial arts context: grading reminders when a student has accumulated sufficient sessions, renewal prompts before membership expiry, and win-back messages when a student's attendance drops below their historical pattern. For students who are between belts — the longest and most difficult phase of any martial arts journey — a consistent nudge from the dojo is often the difference between persisting and quitting.
