- Make sure they integrate the member app with the club’s management system into a single platform.
- Make sure it supports reservations, subscriptions, attendance tracking, workout programs, and progress tracking.
- Choose a company that builds with custom code and grants you full ownership.
- Ideally, it should be able to integrate the app with a website as part of a fully integrated digital ecosystem.
