Revenue calculator
Estimate annual processing leakage plus platform fees at your monthly membership revenue. Maat handles SEPA payments via Stripe, so Stripe-style transaction fees can still apply; CompTeam does not need Stripe for SEPA because Blue Belt includes native SEPA export for direct bank upload. This uses CompTeam Blue Belt at €49/month against Maat at €49/month.
€3,600 Stripe-style SEPA fees + €588 Maat platform (€49/month).
€0 SEPA transaction fees + €588 CompTeam Blue Belt (€49/month), using native SEPA export.
At €30,000/month, CompTeam Blue saves about €3,600 per year after monthly platform fees.
€4,188 Maat annual cost - €588 CompTeam Blue annual cost.
Choose CompTeam when you want the marketing funnel, athlete management and personal AI-supported goal planning to work together. Brown Belt includes HighLevel, lead sync and direct follow-up without a separate marketing subscription, while Purple Belt adds saved athlete goal plans for workouts, schedule fit and nutrition guidance. It is the stronger fit when growth, memberships, payments, competitions, belt history and athlete development should live in one BJJ-focused operating system.
Maat and CompTeam both cover martial-arts gym management. CompTeam's clearest edges are the marketing funnel and personal AI-supported goal planning: Brown Belt bundles HighLevel, and Purple Belt helps athletes turn goals into saved training-calendar plans.
Where CompTeam is stronger
Where Maat is stronger
Maat facts: martial-arts and gym management platform. It is GDPR-compliant and supports multiple payment methods including SEPA Direct Debit, BACS, and iDEAL via Stripe. Maat may offer CRM or marketing tools, but CompTeam's Brown Belt bundles managed HighLevel access, direct HighLevel sign-in, marketing pipelines, follow-up and lead sync into athlete management. Purple Belt also adds personal AI-supported goal planning, so athletes can save workout, schedule and general nutrition plans back into their CompTeam training calendar. Payments also still go through Stripe on Maat, meaning each membership charge can incur Stripe's per-transaction fees (0.8%–1.5% + fixed), unlike CompTeam's native SEPA XML file for direct bank upload.
