# Swift vs Sports Booking Management: The Swift Alternative for Facilities That Just Need Bookings

> A Swift (runswiftapp) alternative focused on bookings rather than a full operations suite. $79/mo flat, unlimited venues and spaces, pricing published up front.

Canonical: https://sportsbookingmanagement.com/compare/swift

Swift runs the whole business — payroll, retail, memberships, a branded app. If you only need the calendar and the bookings, that is a lot of platform to buy, and its price is not published.

**Always grandfathered in**

- We will not raise prices on customers who sign up at the current rate.
- We will not retire old plans — your plan tier stays valid.
- You are always grandfathered in at the rate and plan you signed up for.

## Our three-pillar promise

1. **No price hikes**: We will not raise prices on customers who sign up at the current rate.
2. **No plan deprecation**: We will not retire old plans — your plan tier stays valid.
3. **Always grandfathered**: You are always grandfathered in at the rate and plan you signed up for.

Locked at signup. Never hiked. Never deprecated.

## Sound Familiar?

- No pricing published anywhere — every conversation starts with sales
- An operations suite spanning payroll, retail and marketing you may not need
- Breadth means a longer setup before the first booking goes through
- Paying for memberships, access control and a branded app you might never switch on

## Frequently Asked Questions

### How much does Swift cost?

Swift does not publish pricing — the site offers a demo and a sales chat rather than plans. We publish ours: $79/mo flat with unlimited venues and spaces.

### What does Swift do that you do not?

Swift advertises staff payroll, retail and product sales, memberships, email marketing, liability waivers, access control and a branded mobile app. We do none of those. If they are on your requirements list, Swift is the better fit and we would rather say so.

### What do you do that is comparable?

Online bookings and payments, a public booking page with no account required, an approval workflow, multi-venue support, duration-based pricing tiers, recurring series, staff roles and invoicing.

### Can I move my schedule across?

Yes. Export your bookings, and our support team helps import them. Most facilities start taking new bookings here immediately and let existing ones finish on the old system.

### Is there a trial?

A 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can set up your actual venues and compare properly.

### 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.

Switch from Swift to Sports Booking Management at $79/mo — grandfathered forever. Pro at $79/mo — always grandfathered in.
