ClubManager Accelerates UK Expansion with Worldpay’s Embedded Payments
LONDON, December 3, 2025 – Worldpay® has announced an expanded partnership with ClubManager, a leading software provider to health and fitness clubs, to power the company’s embedded payments as they continue to grow in the United Kingdom. Since launching in 2008, ClubManager has rapidly expanded its footprint, bringing its intuitive club management platform to over 950 sports and fitness clubs. As part of its UK growth strategy, ClubManager has integrated Worldpay for Platforms’ embedded payments to deliver secure, scalable payment experiences directly within its software.
“Worldpay has been a key partner for our operations in Australia and New Zealand, delivering simple, flexible payments to our clubs and their members. As we continue to expand across the UK, extending our strong relationship with them was a natural choice,” said Brett Porter, chief executive officer of ClubManager. “Electronic payments - across card and direct debit - are essential for the health and growth of our clients’ member bases. It’s critical for us to partner with a trusted, well-known brand that delivers secure, flexible solutions that enables members to pay the ways they want. As we focus on our growth across the UK, the simple integration makes it easier than ever for us to suit the needs of our clients while expanding our services and tapping into the potential of payments as a powerful driver of revenue.”
“Worldpay has been at the forefront of embedded payments in the U.S. for more than two decades and we couldn’t be more excited to be expanding our platforms offering in the UK with ClubManager,” said Alison Morris, senior vice president and general manager, UK and Australia of Worldpay for Platforms. “Together, we’re making payments easier for clubs and unlocking new opportunities as payments fuel growth for software providers like ClubManager. At Worldpay, we are powering the possible for our platform partners and their customers with our innovative solutions, our consultative, white glove approach and our drive to help them transform into the everything platform to the clients they serve.”
Worldpay for Platforms is integrated seamlessly into ClubManager’s software and will enable them to offer critical payments capabilities to their growing base of UK clubs. Through a streamlined user experience, ClubManager’s clients will be able to handle all their payments needs including direct debit and recurring card payments. By eliminating the complexity of multiple providers and integrations, clubs can now enjoy reliable, streamlined payment tools collectively managed through one streamlined setup.
By leveraging Worldpay’s cutting-edge payment infrastructure purpose built for software companies and ClubManager’s deep expertise in club management, both companies are poised to accelerate digital transformation across the UK sports and fitness industry. Worldpay launched Worldpay for Platforms in the UK earlier this year.
