Pickleball court booking software. Three ways to play, clearly booked.

Pickleball venue bookings

Let players rent a court, join an Open Play class or book a coach. Keep each booking’s availability, accepted payment options and status clear.

Free plan includes up to 25 bookings per month, has no time limit, and requires no credit card.

Set player capacity explicitly. Court count is a different number.

Open Play as a class

Create an Open Play class and set the number of players who can book each session. Repeat a weekly session or add a one-off event. Choose the staff and resources for the class and review conflicts when setting it up; the number of courts does not automatically set player capacity.

Set up one-off class sessions

Decide what an Open Play pack can pay for.

Payment options by booking type

Choose the accepted packages and payment options for each class or service option. A pack offered for Open Play does not automatically cover a court rental or private coaching.

  1. Set each accepted credit package’s cost for the class or service option.
  2. Check usable credits and the package’s start date and expiry for the selected booking.
  3. Review booking and order status together when a player needs help with payment.

Some payment methods leave a booking pending until payment or proof is processed. Starting checkout is not the same as a confirmed booking.

Check package eligibility

Give Open Play waitlists their own clear rules.

Full sessions and changed plans

Class waitlists can help when an Open Play session is full. They do not apply to court rentals or private coaching.

Joining a waitlist is not a confirmed booking.

When a class place opens, the next waiting player receives an offer. They must review and confirm before the earlier of the response deadline or class start. Package eligibility and payment are checked then.

How class waitlists work

Cancellation and credit return are separate.

Use the applicable class or service cancellation window for automatic eligible package-credit returns. With a positive window, canceling at the deadline or later does not automatically return credits. Card and cash refunds are separate.

Review booking and cancellation settings

Check the court for a rental. Check the coach for a lesson.

Court rentals and private coaching

A rental service targets one resource, such as Court 1. A private appointment targets one staff member, such as a coach. Set the option’s durations, payment methods and weekly availability. The whole booking must fit, and existing bookings or unavailable time can remove a slot. Neither flow reserves a court and coach together.

Understand service availability checks

Test a court rental or an Open Play session first.

Start with one way to play

Configure the booking type, its availability or session capacity, and an accepted payment option. Check the player booking flow and booking status before adding the rest of your venue’s schedule.

Players can book through your website without downloading an app. This setup covers bookings and payments; it does not provide tournament brackets, player rankings or matchmaking.

Compare plans from USD 20/month

Free plan: 25 bookings per month, no credit card, no time limit. Stripe processing fees are separate for card payments.

Service availability guide

Questions from pickleball venue operators.

FAQ

How do court rentals, Open Play and coaching differ?

Use a rental service to book one court resource, a class to sell individual Open Play places, and a private service to book one coach. A private coaching appointment does not reserve a court and coach together.

Can I manage several courts?

Set up separately named resources for your courts and configure the relevant rental options. A rental booking targets one selected resource; do not treat it as a multi-court reservation. Check that resource’s bookings and unavailable time when investigating an unavailable slot.

How do I set Open Play capacity?

Configure Open Play as a class and set participant capacity for its sessions. You can create a recurring schedule or a one-off class session. Court count and participant capacity are separate; your team sets the player limit and reviews the class’s assigned staff and resources.

Does an Open Play pack cover court rentals?

Only if the rental option accepts that package and the booking meets its eligibility rules. Choose accepted packages separately for each class or service option. The selected booking must meet package start-date, expiry and usable-credit requirements.

Can players join a waitlist for a full session?

Yes, for Open Play configured as a class when class waitlists are enabled. A waiting player must accept an offered place before the earlier of the offer deadline or class start, with package eligibility and payment checked then. Joining a waitlist is not a confirmed booking. Class waitlists do not apply to rentals, private services or courses.

Why might a court or coach have no bookable times?

Check the selected service option, duration and weekly availability. The whole booking must fit the available period. Existing bookings, unavailable time and advance-booking limits can remove slots. For rentals, check the resource; for coaching appointments, check the staff member.

What happens to payment when a booking is canceled?

Automatic eligible package-credit returns depend on the applicable cancellation settings and deadline. With a positive cancellation window, canceling at the deadline or later does not automatically return credits. Card and cash refunds are separate. Contact the venue for help with rescheduling.

Can players pay online?

Yes. Configure accepted payment options for the class or service. Stripe card payments have separate processing fees. Some payment methods leave a booking pending until payment or proof is processed, so check booking and order status before treating checkout as complete.
