Exclusive Member Management
Clubnest gives syndicate owners and managers full control over membership access. Whether you run a lake with 20 anglers or 200, you can manage every applicant, renewal, and suspension in one place. Set limits on capacity, manage private waiting lists, and grant access based on custom eligibility rules such as catch history, referrals, or regional location.
Each member gets a secure login to a private dashboard showing their profile, permits, payment status, and any assigned responsibilities like maintenance or rota days. As an admin, you maintain visibility over all activity, ensuring transparency while preserving privacy.
Smart Waiting List & Vetting
Many syndicates maintain a waiting list for years. Clubnest digitises this experience — you can automate responses, assign application windows, and filter candidates based on availability, preferences, or application notes. Optionally charge a holding deposit or registration fee, and communicate with applicants through your integrated message centre.
Admins can review applicant profiles in real-time, check for duplicates, and promote candidates to full members with one click when slots open. Each status change is logged and timestamped for full transparency.
Permit Access & Syndicate Rules
Create different types of access — full, night, guest, probationary — and assign rules to each. Clubnest lets you link digital permits with member IDs, QR codes, and custom terms. All permits are tracked, timestamped, and reviewable by the syndicate owner at any time.
You can also attach documents such as lake maps, rule sets, conservation agreements, and waiver forms — all signed digitally and stored securely. No paperwork, no scanning, no headaches.
Private Invoicing & Subscription Billing
Issue one-off invoices, request deposits, or set up annual subscription payments — all powered by Stripe. Whether you charge £100 or £1000 a year, Clubnest keeps every transaction trackable and secure. Members receive instant receipts and renewal reminders via email.
Optional payment plans, refunds, and VAT settings are all built in. Never chase bank transfers again — Clubnest handles the admin so you can focus on running your waters.
Clubhouse & Rota Coordination
If your syndicate has a clubhouse, rota system, or maintenance calendar — Clubnest helps you assign duties and log attendance. Members can volunteer for work parties, view who’s fishing when, and check rota gaps from their mobile.
No more messy spreadsheets or group chats — everything is synced with your membership tools and exportable for records or insurance needs.
Compliance, Privacy & Digital Logs
For high-value fisheries, compliance and safeguarding are paramount. Clubnest allows you to log incidents, monitor catch records, track night fishing activity, and store patrol reports. You can control access to sensitive data and ensure GDPR-compliant communications.
Whether you operate as a private limited company or community interest club, we provide the tools to demonstrate responsible lake stewardship and defend your members’ privacy.
Built-in Promotion for Exclusive Syndicates
Even private syndicates need discoverability — and Clubnest gives you the option to show limited public pages to attract vetted enquiries. Set your website to “invite-only,” “closed,” or “open with vetting,” and customise your landing pages with SEO-rich profiles, testimonials, gallery sliders, and video embeds.
You control what’s visible, and to whom. Let the right anglers find you — while keeping the wrong ones out.
