Club setup
First-time onboarding - branding, your subdomain and custom domain, timezone, currency and which features are switched on.
When your club is first created you're walked through a short, three-step setup. Nothing here is permanent - everything can be changed later in Club Settings - so don't worry about getting it perfect first time.
You'll need to be an Admin to run setup or change these settings later.
The three steps
Branding. Set your club name and upload a logo. Choose your brand colours and a default light or dark theme, and add links to your club's social accounts. This is what members see across the app, in emails and on your public pages.
Settings. Pick your slug - the short name in your web address. Your club lives at
{slug}.rowbot.app (for example lorc.rowbot.app). Choose your timezone (so outing
times and deadlines are correct), your currency and your language.
Supported currencies: GBP, EUR, USD, AUD, NZD and CAD. Pick the one you'll invoice members in - see the note below before changing it after go-live.
Features. Switch features on or off for your club. Announcements and Directory are recommended for every club. Optional features include Equipment, Coaching, Photos, Documents, Memberships, Certifications, Journal and Reports.
Turning a feature off simply hides it - you can switch it back on at any time without losing data.
Using a custom domain
Once you're set up you can point your own domain (for example members.myclub.org) at
Rowbot instead of the rowbot.app subdomain.
{slug}.rowbot.app address keeps working too.Choose your currency carefully. Changing currency after you've started invoicing members affects how new charges are billed. Set it correctly during setup, and if you need to change it later, talk to support first.
Changing settings later
Everything above lives under Club Settings, reachable from the admin area. Branding, domain, timezone, currency and feature toggles can all be revisited whenever your club's needs change.
Going live with memberships
Move your club onto Rowbot memberships and billing without members noticing until you're ready - including carrying across existing Direct Debits.
Members & invites
Invite members individually or in bulk, assign a role on invite, and manage statuses, custom fields, membership numbers and the directory.
