Online court booking in the Philippines

Online court booking takes a minute: see the price, the hours and whether a court is covered, then book it. Venues get every booking on one calendar, without a Messenger thread or a phone call.

No booking fees at launch. Pay by GCash, Maya, bank transfer or cash.

How online court booking works

  1. Find a venue in the directory and pick a court.
  2. Choose a time. Leftover time under an hour is sold at a pro-rated price, so 20 minutes costs a third of the hourly rate.
  3. Read the cancellation policy, which is shown before payment.
  4. Pay by QR or bank transfer and upload the receipt, or choose cash at the venue.
  5. Receive a confirmation, then reminders 24 hours and 2 hours before the start, by email and in the app.

Every sport, in one booking flow

Badminton, pickleball, basketball, tennis, table tennis, volleyball and football courts are booked the same way, and so are mats for martial arts. Each court, mat or table is its own row with its own hours and prices, so a venue with four badminton courts and two pickleball courts shows six choices side by side. Browse courts by sport and city, from Makati, Pasig, Taguig and Quezon City to Cebu, Davao and the rest of the country, as venues list.

  • Only hours you can still book are shown, so you never pick a time that has passed
  • Today full? The page moves to the first day with a free hour
  • Times are always the venue’s own clock, even if your phone is set to another country
  • Prices show per hour before you choose, in pesos or the venue’s currency

Good to know before you book

Changes and cancellations

By default, you can cancel or reschedule up to 2 hours before the start time, and each booking can be rescheduled once. A venue can set its own policy, and it is shown before you pay. Refunds are arranged directly between the player and the venue.

Booking for your child

Book a court for your child from your own account, the same way as for yourself. A child needs their own profile only for tournaments, where age divisions apply and a parent or guardian gives consent for anyone under 18.

Double bookings and unpaid bookings

The database blocks double bookings, so two people cannot hold the same court at the same time. No booking can hold a court indefinitely: unpaid bookings release automatically, and receipts waiting for review are flagged to the owner. The platform also tracks no-shows.

Running an event instead? See tournament software.

Pickleball games

Once a pickleball game is full and everyone accepts, a lobby opens. Players pick a court and time from real availability, and the host books it. Each player's share of the court fee is shown, and players settle with the host directly. See pickleball open play.
