Everything revolves around your student
Six pieces that work together so your students train more and you administer less.
Schedules and bookings
Today's classes, student bookings, and attendance in two taps from the mat.
Payments without the awkward talk
Every student sees what they owe and pays on their own, with local methods. Money stops being a subject between you.
Events and tickets
Seminars, open mats, and ticket sales with integrated checkout.
Retention and alerts
See who stopped showing up before they cancel, and message them from the same platform.
LATAM multi-language
Spanish, English, and Portuguese ready for your regional community.
Included from the free plan
A student doesn't leave the day they cancel. They leave three weeks earlier.
They stop coming, nobody notices, and by the time they tell you the decision is made. BJJTime shows you while there is still something to do about it: a message at the right time.
- Every student gets their own record: attendance this month, pace, and the disciplines they train.
- The list sorts itself — whoever booked and didn't show up ends up on top.
- It compares against the same month last year, so you know whether your student slowed down or December did.
- And your student sees their own progress too: training stops being a feeling and becomes a number.
No extra module, no extra cost: attendance tracking is there from the free plan, because the academy that is just starting out is the one that can least afford to lose students.

Academies that trust BJJTime
Real stories from LATAM academies.
Payments & admin
Wow! I used to spend countless hours manually tracking payments — delays, confusion, and overdue accounts were common. With BJJTime, reminders and payment tracking are automated: I cut admin time significantly and follow up on monthly dues much better.
Starting from day one
For me it was about staying organized and letting students track their own attendance too. It's also very useful for keeping payment records straight for everyone.
Frequently asked questions
Is there a per-student commission?
No. On paid plans you pay a flat monthly fee (Academy $45/mo, Organization $99/mo) — no per-student charge. FREE is capped at 25 active students. Events: $1/registration, max $50/event.
Do I need a card to get started?
No. The FREE plan is free forever. Academy and Organization include a 30-day trial with no card.
Which payment methods can I offer my students?
Pagadito, Stripe, and manual transfer with proof — depending on your academy configuration.
Is it for a single academy only?
Each academy has its own profile, schedules, members, and payment methods; and with an Organization account you manage 2–5 academies under a single login.
Can I sell event tickets?
Yes. Publishing seminars and open mats is free; you pay $1 per registration when the event ends, capped at $50 per event.
What is an active student on the FREE plan?
Valid membership or attendance recorded in the last 60 days. Counting is automatic; we notify you at 23 and suggest upgrade at 26.
How do I know a student is about to quit?
Through attendance. BJJTime keeps every student's history and sorts the list so whoever booked and didn't show up stays on top — you see at a glance who slowed down this month. The comparison is against the same month last year, not last month, so December and holidays don't trigger false alarms. It is included from the free plan.
What software should I use to run a jiu-jitsu academy?
Software for a BJJ academy needs to cover four things: members and memberships, schedules with bookings, attendance tracking, and monthly fee collection through local payment methods. BJJTime covers all four in one platform, with a flat fee and no per-student commission.
How do I collect monthly fees without chasing anyone?
You set up the plans once and the platform tracks who is current, whose membership expires this week and who is overdue. Students pay with Stripe, Pagadito or bank transfer with proof, and you see each status without digging through WhatsApp threads.
How much does academy management software cost in Latin America?
It depends on the pricing model. International platforms usually charge per active student, so the cost grows every time you do. BJJTime charges a flat fee: $45 USD per month per academy with unlimited students, or free up to 25 active students. At 80 students, per-student pricing costs around $80 a month; BJJTime still costs $45.
How do I fill my trial classes?
Every academy gets a public trial class page: you share the link or a QR code, the prospect picks a class that works for them and books a spot without calling you. You get the booking with their contact details to follow up from the same platform.
