Clubessential has an official API, but teams routinely hit its limits: gated access, partial coverage, or paid tiers. Most end up supplementing it with exports or an unofficial API layer like Supergood.
Clubessential is a SaaS platform for private clubs (city, golf, yacht, racquet, country clubs and HOAs). The suite spans club management, accounting, POS, mobile ordering, member CRM, reservations, banquets, websites, payment processing, and analytics.
Vertical: POS / Hospitality (private-club management). Target market: private member-owned clubs and HOAs in North America and select international markets - golf, country, city, athletic/racquet, yacht and military clubs. Club staff use Clubessential daily for: ringing F&B and pro-shop sales on POS terminals and mobile devices; running tee-sheet, court and dining reservations; managing member rosters, dues billing, statements and minimums; banquet event orders and catering; payroll-adjacent timekeeping; GL accounting, AP/AR and bank reconciliation; member-facing mobile app and website; and marketing/CRM campaigns.
High within its niche, low overall. Clubessential is one of the two dominant private-club platforms in North America (the other being Jonas Club Software), with significant brand recognition at industry events (CMAA).
Member profiles (PII, household relationships, membership class/status, dues schedules, sponsor links). Account ledgers, statements, minimums, dues billing and AR aging. POS transactions (F&B and retail), tabs, gratuities and tax. Tee-time, court, dining and banquet reservations.

Grades measure one thing: can a customer's engineering team get their own data out programmatically? We check six things (whether a real API exists, how access is gated, data coverage, auth quality, docs and developer experience, and stability) and roll them into a letter grade. Grades get re-verified, and they only move on evidence.
Yes. Supergood maintains an unofficial Clubessential API and MCP server so AI agents and internal tools can read and write Clubessential data. See the Clubessential integration docs at supergood.ai/docs/clubessential-api.
