ABC-Ignite]-Blog_header-monthly-product-updates_Nov_

This month’s updates bring new ways to simplify your operations, connect more meaningfully with members, and strengthen the overall performance of your club. From smoother in-club payments to smarter data access and richer engagement tools, Ignite continues to support every step of your business and member journey. 

Manage Your Business 

Automated Report Delivery via SFTP 

Working with your business data just got a whole lot easier. Automated SFTP report delivery in Ignite Insights gives your team immediate access to the information they need, right where they need it. Reports arrive securely, in a consistent format, and without manual effort – helping you make faster, more confident decisions. 

Session Transfer: Secure, On-the-Spot Payments 

Support faster, more private in-club transactions with Session Transfer in Ignite Commerce. Staff can now send a secure payment link directly to a member’s phone while they are physically at the club, letting them complete the purchase on their own device. With support for Apple Pay and other contactless methods, this experience keeps lines moving, protects member data, and streamlines your front-desk workflow.

Ignite Compliance: Staying Ahead of Nacha Updates 

Nacha is the governing body that oversees the Automated Clearing House (ACH) Network, which processes electronic payments such as membership fees and other bank account transactions. The upcoming Nacha rule changes apply to all businesses and payment processors that use ACH, including clubs that collect member payments through bank accounts. To help your club stay compliant, ABC Fitness is building new bank verification services and enhanced fraud monitoring that strengthens account validation, reduces payment risk, and ensures every ACH transaction meets the latest industry standards.
