Historic Vehicle Registration Software: How Australian Car Clubs Manage HVS, CVS and Club Permit Compliance
June 25, 2026
MEMBERSHIP software for Australian clubs
Built for what your members really need
One modern platform that adapts to the real, regulated work generic membership tools treat as an afterthought. Firearms compliance, historic-rego logbooks, attendance-linked scoring, multi-tier associations. From a single club to a national peak body.
Built for YOUR HOBBY OR SPORT, Not Admin Tasks
Generic membership software treats your real work as an afterthought. We treat it as the starting point.
Most platforms give every club the same thing: a list of members and a way to collect fees. Everything that makes your club, your club - Firearms compliance, Historic-rego logbook, Attendance-linked scoring, Mooring allocation, Leader boards — gets pushed into a "custom field" and forgotten. SquadSpot is built the other way around. Your real work isn't the edge case. It's the centre of what you do, and it's where we start.
Take control of club admin and membership management.
Built for Shooters, Not Admin Tasks
One platform. Built deep for each kind of club.
SquadSpot started in shooting — our most demanding domain — and the same foundation now runs car, fishing, archery and motorsport clubs, and the associations above them. Each expressed differently. Each built around the actual work.

Genuine Reasons and licence/PTA expiry tracking, range-officer sign-in, attendance and participation compliance, and live scoring — the regulatory detail generic tools simply don't touch.

Faqs
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the monthly cost of your app?
We charge a one time setup fee to get your member database imported and organised in a way that is the least disruptive to your normal club operations. We then charge a monthly per member price for active members only.
Do you have an Australian local office?
Squadspot is a totally online business. We are run from Australia and we work from our homes. We are only new but hope to move into a combined office if our team needs to grow in future.
What do I need to get started?
Make an enquiry and speak to us about your requirements. We'll talk to you about how Squadspot can help your club and can make a plan to get you started. If you have an existing member database in software or a spreadsheet, we can import it into Squadspot and get you up and running in no time.
How can I migrate my existing data?
Yes! We can work with any format of member database as long as you have the ability to export it into a spreadsheet or CSV. We have the ability to import and map the important fields you require as well as add additional information you need to run your club effectively.
Is the service available globally?
Squadspot has been designed for Australian sport shooting and gun clubs but that is not to say the platform can not be used in other countries. If you think Squadspot can be useful to your club based outside of Australia, please enquire!
Is Squadspot for other types of clubs?
At Squadspot we are focused on sports shooting clubs focusing on Pistol, Shotgun, Rifle and Hunting. But the platform can definitely be used for other types of clubs.
Do you have iOS and Android apps?
Unfortunately no, not at this stage. We do intend to add mobile applications for iOS and Android in future when we release our amazing member login and score tracking app! Stay tuned for that one. In the meantime we do have a fully mobile responsive app that can be access form your phone web browser like Chrome or Safari.
Can I customise member types and fees?
Yes. You can setup unlimited membership types and fees. You also have the ability to add advanced tags to your member database allowing you to group and organise members how you see fit. This can be used for email marketing, renewals and reporting.
