asVereinbase

Club management directly inside WordPress

asVereinbase turns your WordPress website into a practical club and member management system.

Instead of maintaining your website in WordPress and your member data in a separate system, asVerein lets you manage both in one place.

Manage your members, organize membership fees, accept online membership applications and provide your members with a protected member area – directly from your existing WordPress installation.

Your club data stays within your own WordPress environment instead of being stored in a separate external club management platform.

This allows your public club website and your internal member area to work together in the same WordPress installation.

Why asVerein?

Many clubs use several different tools:

WordPress for the website
spreadsheets for member lists
separate software for membership administration
email for internal communication
additional services for club organization

asVerein is designed to bring club administration and your WordPress website closer together.

One WordPress installation. One member database. One place to manage your club.

Built for clubs already using WordPress

If your club already has a WordPress website, you don’t necessarily need another completely separate platform to manage your members.

asVerein integrates club administration directly into WordPress.

That means your club can use the WordPress installation it already knows while adding dedicated functionality for member administration.

Sports clubs

It is particularly useful for clubs that already operate a WordPress website and want to manage their members without introducing another completely separate platform.

Privacy and data ownership

Member data can be sensitive.

asVerein is designed so that your member administration remains part of your own WordPress installation.

This gives your organization more control over where its member data is stored and how its WordPress environment is operated.

Please note that the actual privacy and data protection compliance of your website also depends on your WordPress hosting, configuration, installed plugins and how your organization processes personal data.
