About us

Less admin,
more sport.

Collecting fees and keeping everyone informed should be easy for any club or team, in any sport. That is what BuPay is for.

Mission

End the payment chase.

Clubs and teams are usually run by parents and coaches who volunteer their time. Collecting cash, checking who still owes, messages that go astray. BuPay hands that work to an app, so you can focus on what really matters.

Our story

Built from
experience.

BuPay was born from the stress of collecting group payments in Japan: chasing cash, maintaining spreadsheets, awkward conversations about money. So I decided to build the tool I wished I had.

Before BuPay, I built TeamPay, a team-payments app in Australia. I solved exactly this problem there, and that experience now goes into clubs and teams in Japan.
