Sportivity alternative: REQUR vs Sportivity compared
Sportivity is a Dutch player that clearly targets fitness centres, with a strong focus on member management, access control and debtor management. For larger clubs and chains that is a logical choice.
But not every gym is a chain. If you run one or two sites, you mainly want a system you understand in an afternoon and that costs the same every month. In this article we put REQUR and Sportivity side by side.
In short
- Sportivity aims at fitness centres and chains, with an emphasis on access control and debtor management.
- REQUR is built for smaller gyms, studios and trainers who want everything in one place without fuss.
- REQUR has one public price of €39.99 a month; Sportivity works with tailored packages.
- Both offer member management, scheduling and payments; REQUR also delivers a POS with card terminal and AI scheduling in the same plan.
Who it is built for
Sportivity emphasises fitness centres, multi-site management and features for chains. Think central management across sites, access with QR codes and extensive debtor management. That is exactly what you want if you have five sites and a finance department.
REQUR is built for the owner who is on the floor themselves: gyms, fitness studios, personal trainers, boxing and martial arts schools, yoga and pilates studios. Unlimited locations are included as standard, so growing along is possible, but the system is designed to be understood without a manual.
Price and transparency
Sportivity works with packages that are put together per situation; rates are not on the site. You get in touch and receive a proposal.
REQUR takes a different stance: €39.99 a month, every feature included, unlimited members and unlimited locations. Transaction fees are a fixed amount, from €0.07 for card payments and €0.20 for iDEAL and SEPA direct debit. No percentage of your revenue and no set-up fees.
Access control and check-ins
Access control is a strong point of Sportivity: members check in with a QR code, which works nicely in an unstaffed or busy club.
REQUR supports check-ins and access as well, and links that directly to the member's membership and payment status. So you not only see who is training, but also whether the membership is still running. If you run an unstaffed gym with complex turnstiles, put your exact hardware to both parties.
What REQUR brings on top
Two things are included in REQUR's plan as standard that are often separate or more expensive elsewhere. The first is the POS: you link a card terminal and ring up shakes, class passes and new memberships straight at the front desk, after which everything lands in your administration automatically.
The second is the AI planner. It proposes a schedule based on demand and attendance that you only need to approve. For an owner who puzzles over the schedule every week, that saves noticeable time.
