Organisation & background
Clubforce, a trading name of Net Beo Teoranta, was founded in 2009 in Galway as an online club-lottery platform. It acquired the competition-management software Comórtais and has a large base of sports clubs across Ireland and the UK.
Functionality
Clubforce is an Irish club platform that began as an online lottery tool and covers membership, fundraising, a free club website, a companion app called Clubforce Connect, and event and ticketing tools, all sharing one member database. Membership forms handle sign-up and renewal, family memberships and discount codes. Fundraising includes online lotto, 50/50 draws and Split the Pot, with auto-renewal turning one-off entries into recurring income, and Tap to Pay takes lotto payments on an Android phone without a card reader. Fixture, competition and live-scoreboard tools support leagues and tournaments, and it connects with governing bodies’ systems.
Localised features
Syncs directly with the Gaelic Athletic Association’s Foireann system, including bulk member upload and verification, and with the Football Association of Ireland’s national registration system, reducing double entry. A Concacaf partnership covers development-programme administration outside Ireland and the UK.
Implementation model
Self-service: Vendor-run setup emphasising ease of onboarding, a dedicated account manager and bundled support/training.
Hosting
Cloud-hosted by the vendor.
