5 Best Teamup Alternatives for Sports Facilities in 2026

Teamup is a shared calendar, and a good one. It is not a booking system: there is no rate against a space, no payment at the point of booking, and no approval step. These alternatives close that gap.

Why facilities look for a Teamup alternative

A calendar records bookings; it does not take them
No pricing attached to a space, so every rate is quoted by hand
No card payment at the point of booking
No approval step between a request and a confirmed slot
Sub-calendars stand in for venues, which stops scaling around a dozen spaces

FAQs

Can Teamup take payments for a booking?

Not as a booking transaction. Teamup is a calendar, so payment happens somewhere else and gets reconciled by hand. If taking money at the point of booking matters, that is the line where a calendar stops being enough.

What is the closest thing to Teamup that actually books spaces?

Anything built around a bookable space rather than an event entry. The practical test is whether you can attach an hourly rate to a court and have someone outside your organisation book it without an account.

We use Teamup sub-calendars as venues. Does that scale?

It works for a handful and gets unwieldy past that, because a sub-calendar has no pricing, no availability rules and no approval state of its own. Those are the three things that turn a calendar into a booking system.

Is there a free Teamup alternative?

For hourly facility hire with payments and approvals, not really — the free tools are calendars. Our own plan is $79/mo flat for unlimited venues with a 30-day money-back guarantee, so it can be evaluated on your real spaces.

Will you raise my price?

No. We will not raise prices on customers who sign up at the current $79/mo Pro rate — even if our public pricing increases later.

Will you retire my plan?

No. We do not retire old plans. Your plan tier stays valid; we never force you onto a new tier to keep the same features at a higher price.

What does grandfathered mean?

You keep your signup rate and plan tier forever. Sign up at $79/mo Pro today and that is what you pay — always grandfathered in.
