The software for Swiss MMA clubs
Paak already manages your members, CHF and TWINT payments, and scheduling. For Swiss MMA, it tackles the real problem: no federation IT exists. No Sports-ID, no Fairgate, no API. You're on your own. Paak fills that gap with full club management.
The reality of MMA in Switzerland
The SMMAF (Swiss MMA Federation) is not a Swiss Olympic member and has no official BASPO recognition. MMA is not an Olympic sport. The IMMAF, international parent body, is still seeking IOC recognition. Concrete consequence: no federation IT platform, no mandatory registration system, no API. Swiss MMA clubs operate as independent entities — and that is exactly the situation Paak addresses.
No federation IT to replace
No Fairgate, no Sportdata, no Sports-ID on the SMMAF side. You have nothing to "replace" — you start from zero with Paak.
Fragmented scene
The Swiss MMA scene exists but remains fragmented. Clubs often operate independently, sometimes affiliated to foreign organisations. Honest position: niche market, low-priority on federation integration side.
Standalone club management
Paak is the only tool you need for club management. Membership, CHF/TWINT dues, communications, scheduling, performance, accounting.
No medical certificate enforced
Swiss norm, requiresMedicalCert: false in the SportUIConfig CH (Session 212 Commit 7). Each club can track its own medical validations and parental authorisations if relevant.
