CLUBS · OPEN MATCHES Games that fill up, with a safeguard you control.
Updated on
A player has booked a court and is short of players? They open their game. It appears to players looking for a match, in your club’s app and in the Palarena app, with everyone’s level and the price per player.
Games at the right level
The organiser can limit the game to a level range and choose a friendly or competitive match. A player outside the range can ask to join, and the players already in decide.
Levels come from a quiz, then change with the confirmed results of competitive matches.
A safeguard for the club and the players
You set a deadline between 2 and 12 hours before the start. If the game is not full and paid by then, it is cancelled automatically, card holds are released and nobody is charged. The slot is free to book again.
Players see this deadline before they create or join the game.
Paid share by share, collected by you
Each player pays their share when joining the game. The amount is collected when the slot starts, on your club’s Stripe account, with no Palarena commission.
Seen beyond your regulars
Your open matches also appear in the Palarena app, to players looking for a game near them. Those who join book with you, at your prices, and join your list of players.
