The first half of 2026 has been the busiest in Rubic’s history. We have passed 600 customers, launched Rubic Event and renewed Rubic Lokasjon — and Rubic Admin arrives after the summer. Here is all the news from Rubic, and what it means for your organisation.
Not because we have run faster, but because more and more organisations have discovered the same thing: one system that does the job beats five tools that almost do.
Summer is almost over and autumn is approaching — and here at Rubic we are running at full speed towards the start of the season. Support is open as normal, so you get answers just as quickly now as at any other time of year.
Here are the highlights — and what they mean for you.
Rubic has passed 600 customers
In June alone, five larger organisations with an average of 8,000 members each signed up — organisations that have compared, done the maths and made their choice.
Why do they choose Rubic?
- Everything in one system — members, payments, activities, booking and volunteers. Clubs use an average of five systems that don’t talk to each other. Rubic brings everything together in one database.
- Your own adviser all the way — one adviser handles the entire onboarding, including import from your current system. We move everything for you — at your pace, with no downtime.
- ECIT behind us — Rubic is part of ECIT, with 3,500 colleagues in 11 countries. A partner that will still be here in ten years.
Is your organisation still using old systems or an expensive mix of tools that don’t talk to each other? Then autumn is the perfect time to switch — and these last quiet weeks are the perfect time to have a chat with one of our advisers. They know the day-to-day reality of Norwegian clubs, associations and organisations, and will help you find the set-up that fits. Book a no-obligation chat here.
Rubic Lokasjon: No more double bookings and manual invoicing
The facility calendar has had a visual makeover — and three new features that remove the most common time-wasters in facility management:
- Changing rooms and facilities follow the booking — Link changing rooms, kitchens or other rooms directly to a booking. No more clashes, no more “who has changing room 2?” messages.
- Booking with approval — Let anyone book or submit a booking request online, but stay in control: an administrator approves before the booking is confirmed. Openness without chaos.
- Regular tenants straight to invoice — Do you rent out pitches, clubhouses or other venues? Register the tenant, create the invoice basis in Rubic Lokasjon and send it straight to the accounting system. Zero manual data entry.
Coming this autumn: Extended lock integration with Inlet, with support for offline locks and NFC unlocking — Salto locks are first. The door opens for the person who booked, and only for them.
And one piece of news we are especially proud of: The first municipalities are now up and running with Rubic Lokasjon. Do you manage facilities in a municipality? We are ready for Norway’s municipalities.
Rubic Portal 2.0: One login for everything
Portal was launched in January. Now version 2.0 is here — and it makes Portal the one place your members need:
- Team fund — via Rubic Regnskap and Catacloud, or via the Iizy integration, which opens up more accounting systems. Team managers no longer need private accounts and manual records.
- All events in one place — over time, end users will get access to all Organizer and Event events directly in Portal.
- Simpler navigation and more functionality for managing activities.
Fewer places to log in = fewer questions for you as an administrator.
Rubic Connect: The app the whole club actually uses
After the summer, a solid update to the Connect app is coming — built on feedback from users:
- Team account in the app — the team’s finances where the team already is
- Simpler activity flow — fewer clicks to create and invite
- New group screen — new tabs and shortcuts; switch between subgroups in the blink of an eye
- Improved home screen with group widget
- Contact sharing for the family — click on people to see the email address and mobile number of those who have shared them in the group
- Smarter notifications — the count resets when you click the tab, while unread notifications still appear in the list
- Shift overview in the search field when writing a new message
- Copying text works again on posts, messages and activity descriptions
- Better navigation after creating and editing activities — plus further fixes for logout issues
Every improvement has one goal: that coaches, team managers and parents spend less time on logistics and more time on what they are actually there for.
New: Rubic Event — registration without the headache
Our new registration solution has launched and is available to all customers today. Rubic Event replaces Rubic Påmelding — with everything you had, plus what you have been asking for the longest:
- Team registration and registration of participants on teams. Perfect for cups and tournaments.
- Sports, disciplines and classes — host meets with registration directly for disciplines and classes, all within one and the same event. No more three forms for one weekend.
Coming this autumn: An academy solution in Rubic Event — for those of you who run an academy and want registration, payment and follow-up in one place.
Planning your autumn event now? Set it up in Rubic Event today — and registration will be in full swing when the season kicks off.
Rubic Admin: The biggest upgrade in Rubic’s history
We are relaunching the old Rubic Medlem. Rubic Admin is now in beta and will be rolled out to our customers after the summer.
This is the module for those of you who lead at the top level — club management, association leaders, general managers and section leaders in multi-sport clubs and associations. And it is worth looking forward to:
- Built from scratch — but on the existing database. You can use Rubic Medlem and Rubic Admin side by side until you are confident everything you need is in place. Zero risk, no big bang.
- Designed on 12 years of experience — everything we have learned from thousands of administrators since 2014, built in from day one.
- The foundation for what comes next — the new platform lets us build functionality that was difficult to offer on the old one.
With Rubic Admin, the rewrite project is complete. All modules are on the new platform — and now it is all about building further. That is good news if you are choosing a system for the next ten years, not just the next one.
Rubic Organizer and Accreditation: Sharpened during peak season
Summer is peak season for Norway’s events sector — and we are using it to improve the solutions continuously, based on feedback from the customers who are right in the thick of it.
Already planned: an update that improves the communication experience with Rubic Connect, so that volunteers and participants get a better overview in the app and portal. The improvements will also benefit sports clubs and associations.
Are you organising something this autumn — a cup, festival, meet or volunteer work (dugnad)? Norway Cup coordinates 1,700 volunteers and 4,000 shifts with Rubic. Read the customer stories.
We are growing — join the team
600 customers means more to do, and we are now looking for two new colleagues who want to help build Norway’s leading platform for clubs, associations and event organisers.

Ready for an autumn with less admin?
Autumn is just around the corner — and the last quiet weeks before the season starts are the best time to switch systems. If you switch now, everything will be in place when everyday life gets going again. Your own adviser handles the entire onboarding and moves the data for you — at your pace, with no downtime.
