Für Vereine

Vereinssoftware for a Verein that actually meets

Chapters in three cities, a membership list in a spreadsheet, a door nobody can staff twice, and a cancellation button the law now requires. IRL.OS runs all of it from one system — under your Verein's own name, in your Verein's own app.

Ein Verein, viele Chapters

Chapters let each city team run its own events and members while HQ keeps the full picture: one platform, many cities.

Mitgliedschaften ohne Tabelle

Membership tiers built from capability toggles, member pricing and early booking windows on events, pause-instead-of-cancel so a break isn't an exit. One-off tickets stay a valid use: ticketed events, free formats and members-only formats live in one calendar, each with its own pricing, capacity and access rules.

Die Tür am Vereinsabend

Attendance is tracked automatically at check-in by QR or a geofence around the meeting point, no-show rules are configurable per event, and walk-ins can be charged at the door. Door volunteers get event-scoped access — check-in for their event, not the member list.

Deutsches Recht, eingebaut

GDPR consent trails, self-service account deletion, per-category notification opt-outs, and Germany's legally required cancellation button (Kündigungsbutton) — standard, not a lawyer's invoice. This system operates a real German community under real German law today.

"Can't I just use…?"

You can. Communities do — until the community part starts to matter.

vs · Eventbrite & Luma

They sell tickets to strangers.

They end at the ticket. IRL.OS sells tickets too. It also runs the community around them (door, matching, memberships, your app, your Stripe, no per-ticket toll).

vs · Meetup & Heylo

They rent you an audience.

Your group lives inside their brand, their app, their inbox. IRL.OS puts your app in the App Store — your icon on the member's home screen, your push notifications, your data. When you leave a rented platform, your members stay behind. Here, they were never anyone else's.

vs · Circle & Skool

They're built for the internet.

Forums, courses, cohorts — great for online communities. IRL.OS is built for rooms: doors, tables, no-shows, city chapters, and the awkward magic of strangers actually meeting. The software follows people into real life instead of trying to keep them online.

vs · custom / vibe-coding

White-label, not a science project.

It's white-label, not custom development: your name, icon, colors and store listing are configuration, the build and submission pipeline is automated, and fixes ship over the air the same day. You get a flagship-quality app without hiring a mobile team.

Vereinssoftware — fair questions

Can one Verein run several chapters?

Yes — chapters let each city team run its own events and members while the main Verein keeps the full picture.

What about GDPR and German consumer law?

Built in, not bolted on: consent trails, self-service account deletion, per-category notification opt-outs, and even Germany's §312k-compliant public cancellation button. This system operates a real German community under real German law today.

Do all members have to be paying members?

No. Ticketing is one of eight modules and one-off tickets are a valid use — mix ticketed events, free meetups and members-only formats in one calendar, each with its own pricing, capacity and access rules.

We're a small Verein — is it overkill?

Everything scales down: door tools work for 15 guests, memberships work at 50 members, and you adopt module by module. What doesn't scale down is duct-taping five tools together.
