Court booking in your club's own app, with the cost split between players.
MeetScarlet is a court booking app your players download under your club's name. They book a court by the slot at your standard or peak price, split the cost so each player pays their share by link, and, at padel clubs, join open matches at their level; it comes with every plan, from $349 a month.
Courts, hours and prices
| Setting | Example |
|---|---|
| Lengths and prices | 60 minutes for one price, 90 minutes for another |
| Peak windows | Weekdays 6 to 10 pm at the peak price |
| Member discount | A percentage off for members |
| Opening hours and closures | Different hours each day, and closed dates for repairs or events |
| Time between bookings | A few minutes to clear the court |
Your front desk sees every court on one day grid, and players book the same slots from the app. Two bookings can never take the same court at the same time.
Booking rules
- Members-only courts, which only members can book
- How far ahead members can book, and a shorter window for everyone else
- The longest booking one player can make, and how late a booking can be made
- A late-cancel window, 24 hours to start with
Split payments
The player who books can split the court into 2 to 12 shares. Each share has its own payment link, so the other players pay from their phone without installing your app. The booking shows who has paid.
If the booker agrees, their saved card pays any shares still unpaid shortly before the game, by default two hours before the start, so the court is paid for before the game. Their card is never charged in the last 15 minutes before the start.
Open matches and Americano, for padel
- A player opens a match for two or four and sets a level range; others at that level join and pay their own seat
- Players rate their own level, and your staff can confirm it
- If seats are still empty when joining closes, the match is cancelled and everyone who paid gets a full refund, unless your club lets the organiser cover the empty seats
- Your staff run Americano sessions and enter the scores, and players see the draw and the table in the app
Open matches and Americano are built for padel. Tennis, pickleball and squash clubs get court booking, rules and split payments.
When it is not the right fit
- You want new players to find you on a marketplace. Your app shows only your club, so new players come through your own marketing.
- You need leagues, ladders or tournament brackets beyond Americano.
- You want people to book a court without an account. Courts are booked in your app with a player account.
