## We believe MatGoat can help your academy. Will you help us prove it?

Plenty of academies still take attendance on paper and chase fees over WhatsApp. The student who brings the tool that fixes it is someone the coach remembers.

### Your coach gets hours back

Tablet check-in at the door, automatic payments and lapsed students flagged in time. Everything they do by hand today.

### Your teammates get an app

They book classes, watch the academy's private videos and follow their belt progress from their phone.

### You get the reward

You are paid once the academy pays its first month, and you keep the credit for bringing the solution.

## How it works

Four steps. Only the first two are on you.

1

### Create your link

Enter your name and email and you get a personal link right away.

2

### Send it to your coach

We give you a message ready for WhatsApp. Copy it, paste it and add your own touch.

3

### The academy talks with us

They book a demo through your link or contact us and mention your name. They try MatGoat for 30 days and then get 1 month free.

4

### You get paid

Once the academy pays its first month we email you to send the reward. That is usually about two months after sign-up.

## What your academy gets

So you can explain it in one minute on the mats.

### Student management

All your students’ information in one place and always up to date, including their belt, payments and attendance.

### Automatic billing and payments

Set up your fees and let MatGoat collect payments for you, without chasing anyone at the end of the month, or take cash and mark the payment in the app.

### Attendance tracking

Your students book a spot from their phone, so you know who is coming to class or who attended a past class.

### Class scheduling

Publish your schedule and let students book a spot through the app, with class capacity limits.

### Student communication

Announcements, reminders and messages that reach your whole community on their phones or by email or SMS.

### Private video library

Upload techniques and training sessions for your students to review at home, and you can even charge for access.

### Demo and migration included

We run the demo, move the data and set the academy up. The coach does not have to.

### 1 month free with your link

After the 30-day trial, the academy pays nothing for 1 month.

## Frequently asked questions

### Who can refer?

Anyone who does not own or work at the academy: students, parents, competitors or friends of the coach. You just need to make the introduction.

### When do I get the reward?

Once the academy pays its first subscription month, after the trial and the 1 free month. We email you within the following 30 days to send it. In total that is usually about two months after sign-up.

### What if my coach signs up without my link?

Ask them to mention your name when they register or talk to us. If you also write to us with the academy name, we match it to your record. That is why we ask for the academy and city when you create the link.

### Is there a limit on referrals?

No. Every new academy that stays with MatGoat counts. If you know coaches at several academies, you can send the same link to all of them.

### Does the academy have to be new to MatGoat?

Yes. It applies to academies with no MatGoat account or active trial in the last 12 months. If your academy already uses MatGoat, you can refer any other one.

### Can a coach refer their own academy?

No. Owners and staff cannot refer their own academy, but they can refer other academies and earn the reward just the same.

### Which currency is the reward paid in?

The currency you see when you create your link. Pick your country above to see the exact amount. The academy gets its 1 free month whatever its country.

### What does the academy have to do?

Book a demo through your link or contact us and mention your name. We run the demo, migrate its data and handle the setup.

## Summary of terms

-   One reward per academy. If two people refer the same one, the link the academy used counts, or otherwise the first registration.
-   New academies only: no MatGoat account or trial in the last 12 months.
-   The reward is sent within 30 days of the academy's first payment.
-   Owners and staff cannot refer their own academy.
