Drop-In Sessions & Partner Play
Per-session fees for drop-in leagues, fixed partner registration with an invitation flow, and smart match generation that keeps partners together.
Per-session pricing
Not every league charges a full season fee up front. With drop-in session pricing, players pay per week — show up when you can, skip when you can’t. Organizers set a session fee and the platform handles the rest.
Player self-pay
Players pay from the app with a saved card or by entering new card details. The fee breakdown shows the session fee, platform fee, and processing fee.
Club billing
The club adds players to the session and handles payment collection separately. Platform fees are tracked as invoice line items.
Cash payments
Admins can mark players as paid in cash. The platform fee is still recorded for club invoicing.
Refunds
Full refunds process through Stripe with automatic invoice line item reconciliation. No manual cleanup required.
Fixed partner registration
In doubles leagues, some formats need consistent partnerships. Fixed partner mode lets players invite a partner before the season starts. Once accepted, you’re locked in together — same team, every session, all season.
Auto-roster. When an admin adds one partner to a weekly session, the other partner is added automatically. Remove one, both come off. No manual tracking required.
Invitation flow — invite by name, accept or decline from the app
Push notifications — partners are notified instantly when invited
Re-invite on decline — if a partner declines, invite someone else
Division assignment — both partners placed in the same division
Smart match generation
Match generation respects partnerships. In fixed partner mode, partners are always on the same side of every match. Opponents rotate between rounds so every pair gets a variety of matchups throughout the session.
Partners stay together
Fixed partners are never split across teams. Every match has your partner by your side.
Opponent rotation
Each round brings a different opponent pair. The algorithm maximizes matchup variety across the session.
Bye handling
With an odd number of pairs, byes rotate fairly. No pair sits out twice before everyone has taken a turn.
Minimum pair check
The system requires at least two partner pairs to generate matches and warns you if the roster is too small.
Three participation modes
Cumulative series leagues now support three ways to play. Choose the mode that fits your league’s format.
Singles (Individual) — every player competes on their own
Doubles (Fixed Partners) — invite a partner and play together all season
Doubles (Rotating Partners) — partners change each session for variety
Drop-in or season — combine any mode with per-session or full-season registration
Frequently asked questions
Not in the same league. Each league is configured as either drop-in (per session) or season registration. You can run two leagues side by side if you want both options.
Your partner slot is cleared and you can invite someone else. You can send as many invitations as needed until someone accepts.
An admin can dissolve a partnership and allow new invitations. Past match results are preserved.
Both partners are removed from the session roster together. They won’t be charged for sessions they don’t attend. If only one partner needs to skip, an admin can handle it manually.
The player sees a full breakdown: session fee, platform fee, and Stripe processing fee. You choose whether the club absorbs or passes through each fee component.
Yes. When a session payment is refunded, the corresponding platform fee invoice line item is automatically waived.
