You teach padel. You shouldn't have to run a front desk to get paid for it. Describe how you work and the chat builds your booking page, packs, policy, and payments.
Coach is software for the solo padel coach. You describe how you work in a couple of sentences and the chat builds your booking page, your packs, your cancellation policy, and your payments. After that you run the whole thing from your phone. A card is saved when a player books, so a no-show charges itself per your policy, and lesson packs draw down on their own when a player shows up. You keep the lesson money, 0% platform fee.
A marketplace like Playtomic is built around courts and clubs. That's a fine way to fill a court. It's not a way to run your coaching. Coach works the other way: no court inventory, no club to sit under, no fee on your lessons.
You describe how you work in a couple of sentences. The chat builds the booking page, wires up the pack, and sets the cancellation policy. A minute later you have a link to share.
You run the whole thing from your phone, between sessions. The screens for calendar, clients, and money are there when you want the overview.
You can still get court time wherever you get it now. Coach handles the part that's actually your business: who's booked, who paid, who owes you.
| Coach | Court-booking marketplace | |
|---|---|---|
| Built for | one solo coach | clubs, courts, players finding open slots |
| Who owns the client | you | the platform |
| Platform fee on lessons | 0% (Stripe processing still applies) | a cut of the booking |
| Court inventory to manage | none | central to the product |
| No-show fee | saved card, charged automatically per your policy | varies, usually a court-level deposit |
| Lesson packs | sold once, one deducted when a player attends, balance visible to the player | not the point of the product |
| Run it from your phone | yes, the chat is the remote control | court search, not a coach back office |
We've spent 15 years building and running booking systems for service businesses: online booking, payments, inventory. We took what we learned from all of that and built one thing for one person: the solo coach who lives on the court.
The 14-day trial needs a card so your booking page can take real payments from day one. First 50 coaches lock in $15/mo for life. WhatsApp messaging is a paid add-on. Platform fee is 0%, you keep the lesson money. Stripe's processing fee still applies, same as anywhere you take a card.
No. Coach runs your lessons, your players, and your money. You book court time however you already do. There's no court grid to keep up to date.
A court marketplace is built to fill courts and owns the player relationship, usually for a cut. Coach is built for you, the coach. Your players book you on your own page, you keep the lesson money (0% platform fee, Stripe processing still applies), and the client list is yours.
Yes. The chat is the remote control. "Invoice Marco," "move Thursday to 7pm," "who owes me?" The screens for calendar, clients, and money are there when you want the overview.
$19/mo or $190/yr, with a 14-day free trial (a card is needed to start). The first 50 coaches get a founder rate of $15/mo for life. WhatsApp is a paid add-on. There's no platform fee on your lessons; Stripe's processing fees still apply.
A card is saved when a player books. You set your cancellation policy once, and the fee charges itself when someone misses. You can also take a deposit or full prepay at the moment of booking.
