Keeping members
Joiners, leavers, family rates, honorary members, divisions. The exceptions are the everyday case, and that is exactly what a standard form does not know.
For clubs and associations
Club software that fits your club — not the other way round
Custom club management software, designed in conversation and operated in Germany.
Members, fees, treasury, teams, volunteer duties: every club runs them differently, and every off-the-shelf product asks you to adapt. Here it works the other way — you describe how your club actually works, and Verja builds your own application from it.

A finished club application — usable, not a picture
This is not a matter of taste and not a mockup, it is a real output of the platform. SV Eintracht Birkenfeld is invented, the application is not: the member column, the cash bar with its open items, club life beside it. Click around in it.
Open in its own windowBuilt and mechanically verified like any customer application. Yours will look different — it grows from your description, not from this template.
What actually needs doing in a club
Not a vendor's feature list, but the work someone ends up doing as a volunteer — usually in the evening, usually alongside a day job.
Collecting fees
Who has paid, who still owes, what is reduced. The treasurer needs the year as one picture, not as a total line.
Planning club life
Training, tournaments, work duties, helper lists. Who is scheduled when has to be right at a glance — otherwise nobody turns up on Saturday.
Being able to prove it
Charitable status, audits, the general meeting. What you file here you have to find again a year later.
Why not simply use a toolkit
There is plenty of off-the-shelf club software, and for many clubs it is enough. These three reasons speak against it — if they apply to you.
Your exceptions stay exceptions
In a toolkit you bend your fee rules until the form accepts them. Here the software gets bent instead.
Member data stays in Germany
Operated on our own hardware in Falkenstein, European language models during the build. No third-country transfer you have to explain at the general meeting.
Operations are included
Hosting, updates and backups sit with noalen. Club boards change — the software should survive that without anyone having to look after it.
Frequently asked
What does custom club software cost?
The honest answer: the price is not set yet. FRIDGARD is still being built, and naming a figure before day-to-day operations exist would be guessing rather than costing. What is set is the standard it will have to meet. On the market, custom software typically starts in the four-figure range and reaches five figures with classic development, because every hour is handwork. For a club living on membership fees that is not an option — which is precisely why noalen exists. Here the platform takes over the handwork, and that difference is meant to reach you. Everyone on the waitlist hears the terms first.
Is this GDPR-compliant, even with member data?
The applications run on our own hardware in Germany, each customer workload in its own micro-VM with its own kernel. Only European language models are used during the build. A data processing agreement is in place for the start of operations.
Can existing member data be imported?
Yes, as long as you can export it — usually CSV or Excel from your previous club software. The import is part of the build and is agreed in conversation, not improvised afterwards.
Does the club own what gets built?
Yes. Your content, your member data and the source code of your application belong to the club; noalen provides the source code on request. A change of board makes no difference to that — and you are not tied to anyone who would otherwise keep it.
Does someone in the club need to be technical?
No. You describe what the club needs, Verja builds it, and FRIDGARD operates it. No programming knowledge is required at any point.
Your line of work has a page of its own
For makers and small shops
Range, provenance, orders, courses.
For startups
Product launch, pre-orders, the application behind it.
And the questions that come before the line of work: What does custom software cost? and Is it GDPR-compliant? — the honest guides to read before you commission.
