Playgeko’s plan boundaries put feature access ahead of court count

There is no dated release or pricing change to assess in the product information available for this month’s digest. The useful signal in Playgeko’s published offer is its plan boundary: the step from Standard to Professional unlocks operational modules, not just room to add branches, courts and staff.

That distinction matters to clubs comparing management systems. A facility may fit within a lower tier by location and court count but still need features that sit above it. Capacity is only one part of the upgrade calculation.

The plan split is about operations

Playgeko lists Standard at $31 per month, billed annually at $372 per year. It covers one branch, three courts and one staff seat. The plan includes a dashboard, bookings, customers, payouts and a marketplace listing.

Professional is listed at $76 per month, billed annually at $912 per year. It allows up to five branches, ten courts and four staff seats. The published feature list adds coaching, leagues, tournaments, CRM, POS, a club admin mobile app, inventory tracking, analytics dashboards and a dedicated account manager.

For an operator, the practical question is therefore not simply whether the club will exceed three courts. It is whether the team needs the Professional feature set. A small site that wants to manage tournaments or coaching through the platform may face an upgrade decision before it reaches the Standard capacity ceiling. A larger operator should compare both the location limits and the staff allowance with its actual setup.

The Custom plan is for operators that need unlimited branches, courts and staff. The listed additions include white-label options and API integrations. Its price is custom, so the public tier table does not allow a direct comparison with the two fixed annual prices.

Count the workflow, not just the courts

Playgeko’s broader scope spans court reservations and automated scheduling, online and point-of-sale payment processing, competition management, member-facing white-label apps, operator tools, CRM and marketing automation. Its stated AI tools cover routine tasks, customer follow-ups and sales recommendations. Those capabilities describe a broad operational bundle, but the pricing table still determines which parts are available at each fixed tier.

That makes a feature-by-feature inventory more useful than a headline comparison. List the tasks the club handles today: bookings, payments, coaching sales, league administration, tournament operations, member communications and reporting. Then mark which tasks the team expects the platform to handle, and check the published tier for each. The pricing page places CRM and POS at Professional, for example, even though a club may want to assess those workflows early.

Readers comparing plan boundaries may also find our earlier breakdown of how court limits, staff seats and feature access affect tier decisions useful background. The same discipline applies here: price the plan against the work it replaces or consolidates, not against a single monthly figure.

Put the annual terms in the comparison

Both fixed prices are shown with annual billing. The published figures are in US dollars and exclude VAT; Playgeko says the subscription is billed at the rate for the club’s country. Buyers should use the relevant country rate and tax treatment in their comparison. The public information provided does not establish a monthly-billed price, so it should not be assumed from the annual rate.

Operators should also test the limits against the whole team, not just the person who owns the account. Standard includes one staff seat; Professional includes four. If several employees need access, that limit can matter even when the club has only a few courts. For multi-branch groups, Professional’s allowance of up to five branches may fit the footprint, but the number of staff seats and desired modules still need checking.

A packaging read, not a release note

There is no basis in the available information to call these tiers a new launch or a recent repricing. For this month’s category digest, the actionable point is the structure already shown: Standard covers a narrower set of functions, while Professional groups several revenue and administration tools with higher capacity. Custom pricing moves the discussion to scale, branding and integrations.

Clubs evaluating the platform should confirm current country-specific terms and map required workflows to the plan before comparing vendors. The monthly price is easy to spot. The harder question is whether the features the club needs are included at the tier its size suggests.
