About this place

Manifold Chess Club started as an in-person club in 2022–2023; today it's the chess wing of the broader Manifold services umbrella. We build small operational tools that make hosting real in-person tournaments easy: Swiss pairings via the FIDE-endorsed bbpPairings engine, paper outputs, persistent rating pools for clubs that want their players' progress tracked over time.

Manifold Chess Club operates under 624984 B.C. LTD., a small BC corporation. Privacy and refund policies are linked below.
