Services · Ecommerce development · Sports membership sites
Codeeo provides sports membership website development Saudi Arabia operators can run across many cities from one platform. We build Arabic first membership sites for club groups, padel and fitness chains, academy networks, supporters' programmes and sports associations: tiers sold online, renewals through mada, Apple Pay and STC Bank, members only content, and a portal where every member manages their own plan. Underneath sit the national requirements that matter, from the PDPL to ZATCA e-invoicing.
A single venue can get by with a booking tool and a payment link. An operator with branches in several regions cannot. Rules, prices, invoices and data protection have to work the same way in every city while still allowing local plans.

What a national membership platform includes
Sport has become a national priority in Saudi Arabia, with the Quality of Life Program under Vision 2030 encouraging participation and private investment in clubs, venues and academies. That growth means more operators running several sites in different regions, and more members who expect to join, pay and manage their plan online in Arabic. The difficult part is not the join page. It is keeping tiers, prices, branch rights, invoices and consent records consistent as you open in a new city, while letting each region run its own promotions.
These are the parts we design for national operators. They are listed roughly in the order that most affects the architecture, so the early items tend to be decided first in discovery.
A central catalogue of tiers with national, regional and single branch variants. Head office defines the core plans and rules; regional managers add local offers within limits you set. Every plan carries its own benefits, branch rights, duration, freeze policy and cancellation terms. Retired plans stay valid for members on them.
New cities launch with plans already in place.
Members can hold a home branch, a regional pass or a national pass, so someone who moves from Riyadh to Jeddah or travels to the Eastern Province for work keeps training. Access status is shared with every branch's reception and gate system. Usage by branch feeds your reporting and planning.
Members follow their lives, not a single location.
For associations, competitions or plans where identity must be confirmed, the join flow can verify members through Nafath, the national single sign on, via an approved integration provider. Other plans keep a lighter sign up with mobile number verification. Verification status is stored against the member record.
Verification only where the plan truly needs it.
Checkout through a SAMA licensed gateway with mada, Visa, Mastercard, Apple Pay and STC Bank, tokenised renewals, retries and self service card updates. Tabby and Tamara instalments are available for annual plans where your provider approves the category. Receipts arrive instantly in the member's language of choice.
Members pay the way they already pay nationwide.
Every payment produces an e-invoice that meets ZATCA Fatoora requirements, issued by the platform or by your accounting system through an integration, with VAT applied correctly to plans and add ons. Corporate clients receive standard tax invoices with their VAT number. Credit notes for refunds follow the same process.
Invoicing stays compliant as volumes grow.
Privacy notices and consent records in Arabic and English, marketing preferences members can change themselves, data subject requests handled through the admin panel, and role based access so a branch manager only sees their own members. Retention periods are set per data type, and deletion requests are logged with who handled them.
Personal data handled to the PDPL from the first sign up.
Renewal dates, season starts and Ramadan timetables shown in both calendars where members expect it, with the billing engine working consistently underneath. Promotions can be scheduled around Ramadan, Eid and national holidays. Weekends follow the Saudi Friday and Saturday pattern, so reminders and campaigns never land on the wrong day.
Dates make sense to every member.
Coaching programmes, match and training video, national events and members' news gated by tier, with regional content for each city. Free registration can preview content and invite visitors to upgrade. Coaches and media teams publish through the CMS, each item tagged to the tiers and regions allowed to see it.
Content that keeps members engaged between visits.
Plan, branches, family members, invoices, freeze days, renewal date and upgrade options in one place, with Arabic as the default and English available. Members change their plan without contacting any branch. It is built mobile first, since most members will reach it on a phone, and loads quickly on mobile data.
Branch staff spend time on members in front of them.
Income, joins, lapses, freezes and renewals by region, branch, plan and payment method, with exports for finance and a view for each regional manager limited to their own area. Scheduled reports can be emailed to regional managers each week, so they act on lapses and freezes without logging in.
Head office sees the whole network in one place.
Who this is for
The Saudi sports market now includes private clubs, venue chains, academies and associations that work in several regions at once, alongside public bodies and federations. A membership platform for this kind of operator has to respect national rules while giving each region room to sell. These four situations are where a national platform pays off most clearly, and each points to a different first release. Most operators also share a common need: Arabic first pages, Saudi payment methods, compliant invoices and member data handled properly, regardless of which city a member joins from.
Padel, racquet and multi sport chains that started in one city and are opening in Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam and beyond need a membership system that scales branch by branch. We design the tier catalogue, branch rights and regional permissions so each new site is configured rather than rebuilt, and reporting compares branches fairly from their opening day. Members of an existing branch can be offered a national upgrade as soon as a new city opens. Opening order and timing are planned with you, so payment and staff setup are ready before each launch.
Each new city is set up, not rebuilt.
Football, swimming and martial arts academies running programmes in several regions sell terms and seasons to parents across the country. They need consistent rules on age groups, sibling plans and refunds, with local coaches managing their own squads. We give head office control of plans and pricing logic while branch staff handle enrolment and attendance for their own groups. Parents who move between cities can transfer a child's place to another branch without losing the term already paid. Waiting lists for full squads are handled per branch.
Central rules, local squads.
Clubs with a national following sell supporter tiers to fans in every region and abroad, combining content, priority ticket windows, merchandise benefits and events. Demand spikes around big fixtures, so we plan capacity and load testing for those moments, and pass member status to ticketing partners where they run separate systems. Fans abroad can join with international cards, and content can be released by tier so the most loyal supporters see it first. Supporter data is kept separate from ticket purchases where partners require it.
Prepared for national match days.
Associations, community leagues and recreational sports bodies sell annual memberships that often need identity checks, age categories and affiliation to a club or region. We add Nafath verification where required, clear membership certificates members can download, and renewal reminders timed to the start of each season. Regional committees can see and manage their own members while the association keeps one national register. Members download their certificate from the portal whenever a club or event asks for proof of membership, and renewals keep the register current.
Verification and records built in.
How we work together
National platforms usually start with a fixed scope build for the core platform and a pilot region, followed by a retainer or a dedicated team for the regional rollout and ongoing improvement. Our Riyadh team can hold workshops in person at your head office; teams in other cities join by video call. You get one accountable project lead, a shared board and written notes from every review, so decisions are traceable as the programme grows. Training for head office and branch staff is part of every rollout wave rather than a single session at the end.
A defined build with a deadline
We agree what the product has to do, write it down with a price and a date, and build exactly that. Changes are priced before they are made, not discovered on the invoice.
A product that keeps evolving
Named engineers who work your hours, join your standups and stay on the codebase. You direct the backlog; we own the quality of what ships.
Something live that needs looking after
A monthly block of hours for improvements, fixes and the small requests that otherwise wait months. Unused hours carry for a quarter.
Technology
We choose the stack around scale, your existing booking, access and ERP systems, and the team who will own the platform. Expect established web frameworks, a secure database, a SAMA licensed gateway and hosting agreed with you, with data residency in Saudi Arabia where your policies require it. The admin panel is built for non technical staff at head office and in the branches, with permissions that separate content, plans, pricing and payment settings.

The rules, permissions and reporting have to scale across regions.
A single venue needs plans, payments and a portal. A national operator also needs a central tier catalogue with regional variants, branch rights that follow members between cities, regional manager permissions, consolidated invoicing and reporting by region. We design these first, because adding them after launch usually means rebuilding the member model and migrating everyone twice. It also means deciding early which settings belong to head office and which each region may change, so a local promotion in one city cannot accidentally alter prices or terms everywhere else.
