Membership CRM: all your member data in one place
Kananas is a membership CRM designed to help organizations work more efficiently by bringing contacts, memberships, payments, documents, events and communication into one secure online database.
Instead of managing your association with separate spreadsheets, payment tools and email platforms, your team can access one shared member management system built for membership-based organizations.
Import your existing member records easily and customize profiles with additional fields that match the way your organization works.
Multi-user access for managers and a dedicated member portal help your team collaborate while giving members more autonomy.
Fully configurable, Kananas adapts to your workflows, your membership structure and the specific needs of your association, club or nonprofit.
A mobile app for your members
The Kananas Member Area app, branded with your club’s colors and icon, is an all-in-one mobile solution for managing your community, events, purchases, payments, conversations and documents directly from a smartphone.

Create an online ticketing page for your events in just a few minutes, with descriptions, images, prices and secure online payment. Participants can buy their tickets online and access them at any time.
At the entrance, use the Kananas app to scan ticket QR codes and manage check-in smoothly on the day of the event.
Managers get a dedicated dashboard to track bookings, capacity, participants and manual operations from a single event management system.
Online payments and financial management for associations
Kananas simplifies payment collection, financial tracking and accounting preparation for your organization.
Online payments are automatically linked to your financial records, helping your team save time, reduce errors and keep a clear view of incoming payments.
All online transactions are secured through our payment partner Stripe, making it easier to collect membership dues, event fees, donations, invoices and online store payments.
Testimonials from membership-based organizations
Kananas has completely transformed the way we manage our diving center. The app sends reminders, tracks student progress and manages memberships. We finally have more time to teach and dive.
Before Kananas, our dance school team spent hours managing attendance and payments. Now everything is automated, from scheduling to invoicing. We save time and no longer rely on Excel spreadsheets.
For our alumni network, the member map was a real breakthrough. We were able to identify local groups and organize regional meetups, strengthening connections between former students in a very practical way.
Our basketball club moved from a disorganized system based on scattered spreadsheets to a structured and automated platform. Coaches can now focus on training instead of administrative tasks.
