About
ClimbManager is a modern, all-in-one software solution purpose-built for climbing gym operators. It combines a powerful Manager Panel for real-time business oversight, a dedicated member-facing mobile app, an online booking platform, and a full-featured POS system into a single unified platform. Key capabilities include automated marketing workflows that handle repetitive customer service tasks, self-service kiosks for new and existing member onboarding, tablet applications that improve customer independence, and access control automation that separates paid zones and limits unauthorized entries. The platform also supports digital waiver signing, enabling clients to accept liability terms online before arriving at the gym. ClimbManager integrates with payment services and payment gateways to enable secure, automated financial transactions. It supports multi-location management, making it ideal for growing chains like the Spanish SHARMA gym network. With 24/7 helpline support and a track record of tens of millions of recorded entrances and millions of euros in processed transactions, the platform is trusted by climbing gyms across multiple countries. The software is designed for gym owners and managers who want to automate routine tasks, boost revenue, lower operational costs, and deliver a better customer experience — all without being tied to a physical reception desk. ClimbManager is available in multiple language versions, reflecting its global reach.
