Moving from WodBuster to Wodmark
What to take out of WodBuster, how to import your athletes and keep direct debits, and how to pick the day so nobody is charged twice.

Why some boxes look elsewhere
WodBuster is the most widely used software among boxes in Spain. Its App Store page says more than 3,000 centres use it, so your athletes probably know it already. If you are thinking of switching, it is likely because of something you hear at the front desk. We read and counted the reviews of its app on the Spanish App Store, and these are the complaints that come up most:
- The app stopped opening on iPhone. Of 124 reviews, 72 had one or two stars, and 38 of those arrived on 4 and 5 November 2026, after a version that would not open on iOS 27. WodBuster fixed it in version 1.25.
- Booking opening time. One athlete calls it «the hunger games». Others say the app freezes right when places open.
- The waitlist. It shows how many people are on it, but not your position. «It makes you remember what your place was», one athlete writes.
These are athletes' reviews, not box owners', and the broken version inflates the count. They are still the complaints that end up at your desk.
What to take out of WodBuster
We could not see from outside what WodBuster's dashboard exports or where each button is, because it is only visible with a centre account. Look in your dashboard for a download of the athlete list. If you cannot find it, ask their support. What you need:
| Data | What for |
|---|---|
| Athletes: name, e-mail and phone | Creating their accounts. The e-mail is required |
| IBAN, reference and date of each mandate | Collecting through the bank with no new signatures |
| Each athlete's plan and renewal date | So nobody pays twice or ends up without a plan |
| Outstanding debts | Not losing what you are already owed |
| Marks and results | Keeping them. The importer does not bring them today |
| Invoices issued, as PDF | Your records. An issued invoice is never issued again |
If you get an Excel file, open it and save it as CSV. If there is no way to download something, you are entitled to ask for it. Your box is the controller of the data and the platform is its processor: at the end of the service it must return or delete the data, as you choose (Article 28(3)(g) of the General Data Protection Regulation).
Importing into Wodmark
- In the dashboard, open Import and upload the CSV.
- Tap Check file. You see who will come in and the problems: a row with no e-mail, an IBAN that does not check out, a mandate with no reference or date.
- Tap Import. Nothing is created before that. If you upload the same file again, what was there is updated and nothing is duplicated.
- When you are ready, tap Send invitations. Each athlete gets an e-mail in your box's name to choose a password.
Columns are recognised by name, in Spanish or English, ignoring case and accents. The full list is in importing from another platform. The importer brings athletes and their direct debit details. Plans and the schedule are created in the dashboard.
The day of the switch
You can try Wodmark with everything for 30 days before moving anyone. Once you are sure:
- Two weeks before: import, check what is missing and get the schedule and plans ready.
- One week before: final import and a notice to your athletes that bookings move to the new app.
- The day: right after a batch, so no month is charged twice. The following weeks are booked only in Wodmark.
- First batch: Wodmark builds the pain.008 file for your bank. Check it before uploading it.
- Afterwards: keep WodBuster open for a month in case something is missing, then ask them to delete your data.
If some athletes pay with a card saved in the current app, that card does not move. In Wodmark you collect by bank batch, card terminal at the desk, cash, Bizum or transfer. The detail on mandates is in how to switch software without losing direct debits.
Frequently asked questions
Do I have to ask my athletes to sign again?
No. The mandate is an agreement between the athlete and your box. As long as you keep each one's reference and date and collect with your creditor identifier, it stays valid. Wodmark sends every debit as recurring (RCUR).
Do my athletes lose their marks?
What they have in WodBuster does not move to Wodmark by itself. Keep the export. In Wodmark each athlete enters their maxes and the app works out their kilos from them.
What if an athlete also trains at a box that stays on WodBuster?
They keep using WodBuster for that box. In Wodmark, one account works for every box that is on Wodmark.
