Looking for a TidyHQ alternative?
TidyHQ is an Adelaide-born administration platform that has become the Australian default for community groups — membership, finances, meetings and comms in one tidy place.
Competitor details last checked 24 July 2026 from public information. Spotted something out of date? Tell us and we'll fix it promptly.
TidyHQ earned its place in Australian community life. Scout groups, service clubs and associations run their membership, meeting minutes and finances through it, and its committee tooling is genuinely mature. If your organisation is a general community group and TidyHQ is humming along, there may be no reason to move.
Sports clubs are where the fit gets tighter. TidyHQ is a general-purpose admin tool — it has no competitions, teams, fixtures or match-day story, and its website capability is a smaller part of the product. ClubHelix was built sport-first: a real website platform with the club admin, comms and commerce behind it.
If you are a sporting club that adopted TidyHQ because it was the local default, this comparison is for you.
| TidyHQ | ClubHelix | |
|---|---|---|
| Public website | Websites are a lighter part of a product focused on administration. | A website-first platform: drag-and-drop canvas editor, theme system in your colours, templates, custom domain and SEO tools built in. |
| Committee & governance | Mature meeting and committee tooling — a genuine strength, refined over years with community groups. | Governance meetings with agendas and minutes, role-based access, council positions and a full audit log. |
| Sport features | General-purpose by design — no competitions, fixtures or match-day tooling. | Competitions with ladders and finals, team management, live match centre, RSVPs and attendance built in. |
| Pricing model | Free plan plus a Pro plan at US$69/month (about A$89) with unlimited contacts and admins (as at July 2026). | Free tier to start; transparent published pricing on a 28-day cycle you can leave any time, or pay yearly at a discount — see /pricing. |
| Communications | Member email included, with a generous monthly send allowance on Pro. | Email broadcasts from your own club domain, SMS, push notifications and safeguarded member chat. |
Why clubs switch
Sport is first-class, not bolted on
Teams, fixtures, ladders, finals and match-day tools are core ClubHelix features, not workarounds in a general admin tool.
Your website carries its weight
A modern public site with your branding, news, events and sponsors — the thing new members actually see before they join.
Commerce under the same roof
Registrations, event tickets, a club shop with tax handling, raffles and donations — no third-party checkout tools to stitch in.

Frequently asked questions
- We’re a community group, not a sports club — is ClubHelix still a fit?
- Often, yes. ClubHelix works well for community organisations that want a strong public website with membership, events and payments behind it. If your needs are mostly meetings and light admin, TidyHQ remains a fine choice.
- Can we move our member data across?
- Yes — export your members to a spreadsheet and import them with ClubHelix’s bulk import, or let our done-for-you service handle the whole migration including your website content.
