Smoothcomp alternative: Fitofan

Smoothcomp is known for combat sports events, widely used in BJJ, grappling and other martial arts. 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 Smoothcomp is used for

Smoothcomp is a well-known event platform used by organisers of combat sports tournaments for online registration, bracket generation and live results, and it is familiar to a large community of BJJ and grappling competitors.

Organisers usually reach for it at the level of a single event: publish the tournament, take entries, build brackets, run the mats.

Fitofan covers that event workflow too, and then adds the federation layer around it — membership and licence registers, multi-event seasons, national and regional rankings, ticketing and payments in one record.

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.

Questions

Is Fitofan a Smoothcomp alternative for BJJ and grappling events?

Yes. Fitofan runs registration, weight classes, brackets, mat scheduling, judging and live results for grappling and striking events, and keeps the athlete record for future seasons.

Can we move an existing event to Fitofan mid-season?

Yes. Clubs, athletes and past results can be imported so rankings and eligibility history continue instead of restarting.
