What a tennis club needs from court booking software
One calendar, every court
Add Court 1, Court 2 and as many as you have, each with its own hours. Players pick a court or take the first free one, in hourly slots on the hour.
Paid before they play
Once you connect Stripe, court hire is paid in full by card when it's booked, into your own account, and the booking confirms itself. A no-show has already paid.
Members, casuals and the pro shop
Put your booking page behind a members' passcode, ask whether they need racquet or ball hire, and know how many are playing before they arrive.
A court booking page, with your courts already on it
Pick Courts & sports hire at sign-up and these services, prices and booking questions are pre-filled. Change anything, or let AI draft them for you.
One court booking, start to finish
Tuesday night, from the couch
A player opens your link, picks Court 2 for Thursday at 7 pm, says there'll be four of them and that they need two racquets. Slots start on the hour, so 7 pm is 7 pm.
$35, paid as they book
Court hire — 1 hour is $35, paid in full by card into your own Stripe account. The booking confirms on the spot and the court is blocked on your calendar.
The reminder and the inbox
A free email reminder goes out the day before. Any message between you and the player is kept with the booking, not lost in someone's phone.
Thursday, 7 pm
They turn up and the court's theirs; the money was yours on Tuesday. The invoice went out on its own when they paid, a GST tax invoice if your club is registered.
You do the work.
We'll handle the money.
Take a card deposit when they book — through your own Stripe account, so the money lands with you, never with us. Settle the rest by card, bank transfer or cash and the invoice goes out on its own — a GST tax invoice if you’re registered. No monthly fee: 1.5% on card payments, 50¢ when you record a cash or bank payment.
Questions tennis clubs ask us
Can players book a specific court?
Yes. Each court is its own resource with its own hours. A player picks Court 2 at 7 pm, or chooses any court and gets the first one free.
Do we have to take payment online?
No. The Courts & sports hire setup starts with court hire paid in full by card at booking, once you connect Stripe, which cuts no-shows. You can switch a service to pay on the day; those bookings then come to you as requests to confirm.
Can we keep bookings to members only?
Yes. A passcode can keep bookings to members only: put your booking page behind it and share the passcode with your members.
Can we hire out racquets or balls?
The booking asks whether they need racquet or ball hire, so you have it ready at the desk. Hire is settled there; GoBookka doesn't add priced extras to a booking.
Does it work for squash, badminton or futsal courts?
Yes. The setup is the same for any court or pitch hired by the hour: name the courts, set the hours, and players book by the hour.
How much does it cost a club?
There is no monthly fee. GoBookka charges 1.5% on card payments and 50c when you record a cash or bank transfer payment, and every new business gets $20 of launch credit at signup.
