LANCASTER, PA – ClimbTime, a mobile app built to strengthen indoor climbing communities, has officially relaunched and is now offering full access to climbing gyms at no cost. Originally launched in 2021, ClimbTime has been updated and relaunched to give gyms better tools to connect members, run leagues and clubs, and keep climbers engaged—all while streamlining how community information is shared.
“Most gyms have a strong community—they just haven’t had an easy way to manage or scale it,” said Brandon Coder, co-founder of ClimbTime. “We built ClimbTime to centralize everything: partner finding, clubs, gym news, climb logging, events, and feedback. And now, we’ve removed the cost so every gym in the world can use it.”
ClimbTime is already being used by thousands of climbers and is designed to fit into a gym’s existing operations without requiring complicated onboarding. Once a gym claims its profile (already pre-loaded in the app), it can start promoting events, running clubs, tracking routes, and engaging climbers in minutes.
