Welcome to StepBridge Australia

Welcome to StepBridge, the only Australian based internet bridgeclub. StepBridge is like any other bridgeclub in Australia, the difference is that we're open 24/7 and our venue is the internet.

You can play whenever you like in our social competition room or join our daily sessions at 8pm EST (weekends also at 4pm EST) with ABF masterpoints.

At the moment StepBridge has over 3000 registered members enjoying a serious but social game. We like to call it 'seriously social'.

To ensure the respect our members deserve, all daily session have a director who takes care of our Zero Tolerance policy: no rudeness or disrespectful behaviour is accepted.

ABF members
To join StepBridge is free for all applicants with an ABF membership number. You get 5 free standard sessions without any obligations before you decide on which plan you like to continue the tourney sessions. The social competition room will stay free of fees.

Non-ABF members
Applicants without an ABF number can also have a try-out of 5 tourney sessions. If you like to continue you need to apply an ABF number.

StepBridge charges $17.50 per annum, the absolute minimum for ABF and state fees, and you'll have StepBridge as your official home club. With the ABF number you can play at any club or congress in Australia and redeem all the ABF masterpoints you've won.

If you don't want to have an ABF number you can still play unlimited boards for free in our social competition room.

StepBridge is seriously social, it's fun and worth a try. Sign up now and you'll discover how good bridge at StepBridge is.
