Facility Booking Software for Spaces People Actually Book by the Hour
Halls, courts, studios, rooms and pitches — published on a public page, requested against live availability, approved by you, priced by duration.
The generic-tool trap
Facilities usually start with whatever is already to hand: a spreadsheet, a shared calendar, a form that emails the office. It works until two people want the same Tuesday, or until the person who keeps the calendar goes on holiday.
The next step is often an appointment scheduler built for salons and consultants. Those are excellent at booking a person for thirty minutes and poor at booking a space for three hours, on a rate that changes with the block, across a dozen rooms.
What you get
Spaces, not appointments
The unit is a bookable space for a block of time, not a staff member for a slot. Pricing, constraints and availability all attach to the space.
A shareable public booking page
One link shows live availability and accepts requests, with no account needed from the person booking.
Duration-based rates
Per hour, half day, or a custom rate for any block — set once against the space rather than quoted by hand each time.
Optional approval workflow
Requests can queue for review so a public booking page never means an unattended calendar.
Several venues in one account
Each venue keeps its own operating hours, pricing and constraints while sharing one calendar view and one bill.
Recurring bookings
Weekly hirers get a series rather than a booking a week, and it can be released in one action when the term ends.
Count your spaces before you compare prices
Per-space pricing looks reasonable at the point of sale and gets expensive quickly, because facilities almost always have more bookable spaces than they first count. Rooms that are sometimes combined, courts that split, a hall that is one space on Saturday and three on Tuesday — each of those is a line item on a per-space plan.
A flat $79/mo with unlimited spaces removes the arithmetic. Model the building accurately and the price does not move.
By facility type
Questions
What counts as a facility here?
Anything bookable as a space for a period of time: sports halls, courts, pitches, studios, meeting and community rooms, cages, simulator bays. If it is booked by the hour rather than by the appointment, it fits.
How is this different from an appointment scheduler?
Appointment tools book a person for a fixed-length slot. This books a space for an arbitrary block, with rates that vary by duration, constraints that vary by venue, and approvals in between. The data model is different, and it shows once you have more than a handful of spaces.
Can we take payment at the time of booking?
Yes. Card payment can be collected up front, with the slot held only once the payment lands. Invoicing on account is also supported for regular hirers.
Do the people booking need an account?
No. The public booking page works from a shared link, which is what makes casual and one-off bookings actually happen.
Is there a limit on spaces?
No. Spaces are unlimited on the flat plan, so the number of rooms or courts you list has no effect on what you pay.
Can we try it on our real venues first?
Yes, and that is the intended way to evaluate it. There is a 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can set up your actual spaces rather than a test one.
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.
