Sportdata alternative: Fitofan
Sportdata is known for karate, taekwondo, kickboxing and other Olympic and international federation events. Fitofan covers the same event workflow and adds membership, rankings, ticketing and payments in one platform used by 13,000+ organisations across 60+ countries and 70+ sports.
What Sportdata is used for
Sportdata is used by many national and international federations to publish events, take team entries and run competition management for karate, taekwondo, kickboxing and related disciplines.
Federations that work this way typically keep their membership register, finances and communications in separate systems and connect them by hand each season.
Fitofan puts the federation register, entries, judging, results, rankings, ticketing and payments in one place, so eligibility is checked from the same record that produces the ranking.

Why organisations switch to Fitofan
One system instead of several tools
Registration, membership, brackets, judging, results, rankings, ticketing and payments run inside the same record, so an athlete entered once stays connected to every event, result and ranking point that follows.
Built for federations, not only for single events
Fitofan keeps club and member registers, licence and eligibility status, provincial or regional structures and multi-season history — the layer a governing body needs above individual tournaments.
Any sport, any judging model
Bracket sports, mat sports, scored and judged disciplines, timed and distance events and league formats are all configurable, with judging models set per event instead of hard-coded per sport.
Revenue in the same place
Entry fees, membership dues and ticket sales are collected through the platform, and Fitofan Pay handles card processing in Canada and the United States.
