MMA.INC (NYSE American: MMA), a leader in martial arts technology,
has announced a strategic partnership with the New Zealand
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Federation (NZBJJF) to integrate BJJLink, the
premier gym management tool, into its network of Brazilian Jiu
Jitsu (BJJ) academies. This collaboration and MMA.INC’s
foundational federation partnership we believe will streamline
academy operations, enhance student engagement, and accelerate the
growth of New Zealand’s Jiu-Jitsu community.
As part of the agreement, affiliated gyms will
receive exclusive pricing for BJJLink, along with a revenue-sharing
model that benefits both individual academies and the NZBJJF.
Referred gyms will gain access to BJJLink’s cutting-edge management
tools, including automated billing, attendance tracking, curriculum
planning, timetable optimization and student performance
monitoring—all designed specifically for BJJ academies.
MMA.INC CEO: “The Future of Martial Arts
is Digital”
Nick Langton, Founder and CEO of MMA.INC,
emphasized the significance of the partnership:"Jiu Jitsu is one of
the fastest growing martial arts globally, but many academies still
struggle with outdated digital systems and software not designed to
meet the unique needs of their sport and member base. Our
partnership with NZBJJF and the rollout of BJJLink marks a major
step in digitizing the industry by providing academies with
best-in-class tools to help grow their academy and enhance
connection and engagement with their student base. For academy
members, BJJLink provides a suite of features delivered through a
mobile app, to track their progress and connect with their coaches
and training partners, which elevates their training experience
both on and off the mats. It really is a win win for gym owners and
members alike.
"This foundational partnership paves the
way for deeper engagement with national federations that oversee
thousands of gyms worldwide across multiple martial arts
disciplines. By aligning with these governing bodies, we can
rapidly scale our footprint, strengthen our community, and drive
unprecedented growth in global participation."
Empowering New Zealand’s Jiu-Jitsu
Community
Through this partnership, MMA.INC and NZBJJF
plan to:
- Deliver hands-on business support
to academy owners, leveraging industry expertise.
- Provide advanced software solutions
to optimize gym operations and student management.
- Create a sustainable financial
model that benefits both individual academies and the NZBJJF as an
organization.
- Strengthen the Jiu-Jitsu community
through technology-driven operational improvements.
NZBJJF leadership expressed confidence in the
platform’s impact:
"After more than two years of evaluating gym
management solutions tailored to the New Zealand market, we are
proud to introduce BJJLink—the ultimate app designed specifically
for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu academies. BJJLink empowers gym owners with
advanced features, including custom curriculum creation and video
uploads to personalized galleries, streamlining academy management
like never before. This partnership will support both small and
large academies, enhancing operational efficiency and elevating the
student experience."
Unlocking New Revenue Streams in a
Growing Market
The partnership aligns with MMA.INC’s broader
vision to unify and digitize the combat sports industry. With over
640 million MMA fans globally and 11.8 million active participants
in the U.S. alone, the market is highly fragmented. MMA.INC’s
technology bridges this gap, aggregating the martial arts economy
into a seamless digital ecosystem.
As part of this initiative, affiliated gyms will
gain access to MMA.INC’s Integrated Community and Commerce
Platform, launching in Q2 2025. Currently in closed beta, this
mobile-first, multi-device application will connect fans, fighters,
coaches, and gym owners—offering training resources, social
engagement, and commerce opportunities in one centralized hub.
A Business Model with Multiple Revenue
Streams
MMA.INC’s monetization strategy is designed for
scalability and high engagement, leveraging multiple revenue
channels:
✔ Subscriptions – Premium access to social
community features and business tools.✔ Transaction Fees – Earnings
from class bookings, gym memberships, e-commerce sales, and event
ticketing.✔ Advertising & Sponsorships – Direct access to a
highly engaged combat sports audience.
With an established foundation of 5 million
social media followers, 530,000 user profiles, and 18,000
registered gyms, MMA.INC is positioned for rapid expansion. Backed
by high-profile investors and ambassadors with a combined social
reach of 60 million, the company is set to drive mass adoption at
an unprecedented scale.

milestone in MMA.INC’s mission to redefine how the martial arts
community connects, grows, and thrives in the digital era.
