Paak is the management software of your affiliated clubs. When a club chooses to share
its figures with you, you see its licensed members, its checked coaches and how it keeps
its accounts, as totals, with no names. Your federation's own system stays in place: Paak
adds to it.
Free for the federation · Hosted in France · The club decides to share, and can stop at any time
A sample federation, with made-up clubs and names.
What you see
An overview when you open Paak, then one screen per subject. The same screens open on a phone.
Your licensed members
The total, the share of women and girls, age bands, sports, club by club. Clubs entered by hand add to the total, and the screen says what each figure counts.
Your clubs
The clubs on Paak that share with you, the ones you follow by hand, and the invitations you sent.
Finance health
Which clubs keep their accounts in Paak and have adopted a budget, and how the territory's income breaks down.
Coach checks have their own screen in the countries where Paak follows one: France,
Germany, Switzerland, Belgium, Austria, Italy and Portugal. A view by département is
added in France.
How a club joins you
01
You invite it
You send an invitation to the club's address. Clubs already on Paak can also choose
to share with you from their settings.
02
It accepts
By accepting, the club creates its account and shares its figures with your federation.
If it no longer wants to, it stops from its settings.
03
Its figures arrive
Its members and coaches count in your totals. If you had entered its figures by hand,
they are linked to its account.
For clubs not yet on Paak, you enter their figures by hand: they count in your totals,
marked as manually entered. And to write to them, Paak's newsletter reaches the leaders
of the clubs that share with you.
What protects your members
Totals, never a name
The federation sees numbers and percentages, never a member's name.
The 5-person rule
A figure about fewer than 5 people never appears on its own, so no one can be recognised.
The club and each member decide
The club chooses to share and can stop. Each member can object to being counted
(GDPR, article 21).
Free for the federation, tailored if you want it
Each club picks its own Paak plan and can start on the free plan. The federation pays
nothing to see its clubs.

Your federation in Paak
Paak keeps a register of the federations of each country where it is available, with
their sports and, where known, the format of their licence numbers. Your clubs pick their
federation there, when they create their account or later in their settings.

Questions
Does Paak replace our federation's membership system?
No. Your clubs keep their licences, their affiliation and their competition entries in your own system. Paak is the software for their club life: members, fees, training, communication. You see what each club chooses to share with you.
What does it cost the federation?
Nothing. The overview, the invitations, the clubs entered by hand, the newsletter to club leaders and the read-only access key are free for the federation. Each club picks its own Paak plan and can start on the free plan. A tailored, paid version is possible on request: white label (your logo and colours in Paak), a set-up made for your federation, work for your own needs. The quote follows a call.
What exactly does the federation see?
Totals: the number of licensed members, the share of women and girls, age bands, sports, checked coaches where the country has a check, the clubs that keep their accounts in Paak. Never a member's name. A figure about fewer than 5 people never appears on its own.
Can a club stop sharing?
Yes, at any time, from its settings. Each member can also object to being counted (GDPR, article 21).
What about clubs that are not on Paak yet?
You enter their figures by hand: they count in your totals, marked as manually entered. You can also send them an invitation. By accepting it, the club creates its account and shares its figures with you; what you had entered is then linked to its account.
Can we connect Paak to our own system?
Yes, read-only: an access key gives your totals to your own tool, up to 60 requests an hour. The integration guide is in French for now.
A call with your team?
A video call to show you these screens on a sample federation and see what they would
change for your staff. No commitment.
