KADEPAY FOR TENNIS & PICKLEBALL COACHES
You teach at the club on Tuesday, the public courts on Thursday and a backyard pickleball court on Saturday. KadePay follows you: players request lesson times, buy packs of five or ten, pay for clinics by link, and settle up by card, Apple Pay or Tap to Pay before they leave the court.
Pay-As-You-Go starts at $0 per month. Usage and payment fees apply.
Sound familiar?
Teaching pros juggle courts, weather and players who think of lessons as casual plans. Here are the money moments tennis and pickleball coaches bring up most, and how KadePay steadies them.
You held the 6 PM court, turned down another player and loaded the ball cart, and then the text arrives: something came up.
With KadePay
Have players sign your tennis lesson cancellation policy and authorize a card at the first lesson. A late cancel then becomes the fee your signed policy describes, with a receipt sent to the player.
Card on fileHalf the week washed out, and now nobody agrees which lessons were used, credited or still owed.
With KadePay
Sell tennis lesson packages and record a lesson only when it is played. A rained-out session stays on the pack, and private notes record any make-up you promised.
Packages and sessionsEight players show up for the Saturday drill clinic: three paid ahead, two have cash, and one promises to send it tonight.
With KadePay
Share one link for tennis clinic registration at $40 per player with a question for skill level. Players pay ahead, and walk-ups scan your QR code or tap a card on your phone.
Payment links and QR codesEvery lesson location is different, and at least once a month a player waits at the wrong set of courts.
With KadePay
Use a booking link for private tennis lessons and pickleball lessons. Players request a time, you confirm it, and each appointment carries its own court address on your calendar.
Appointment bookingYour junior academy has twenty kids, four sessions a year and parents who all want a different way to pay.
With KadePay
Collect junior tennis program fees through a session link or a payment plan the parent agrees to. Each parent signs the waiver on their phone, and notes keep each junior's level and racquet size.
Payment plansHow it fits your week
Your Flex Link sits on the club bulletin board as a QR code and in your social bio, pointing to lesson requests, clinic payments and lesson packs.
Players request a 60-minute private or a doubles lesson. You confirm the times that fit your court bookings and block off tournament weekends.
New players sign your policy, authorize a card and buy a five- or ten-lesson pack, so the first lesson starts with the business side already done.
Walk-ups at a clinic scan your printed QR code. Single lessons can be charged with Tap to Pay on a compatible phone before the next player arrives.
Record each played lesson against its pack, look over the week's transactions and download them for your bookkeeper at the end of the month.
Every way your players pay
Availability depends on your account setup and eligibility. You confirm Venmo and Zelle payments after checking they arrived.
Built in
Each tool writes to the same player record, from the first booking request to the receipt.
KadePay for tennis coaches
Club software is built for the facility: court reservations, member dues and league play. An independent pro needs something smaller that travels, and that is where a coaching app earns its place. KadePay handles tennis lesson booking requests, lesson packs, clinic payments and waivers from your phone.
Pickleball lessons have become a steady part of many pros' weeks, and the money works the same way. A pickleball coach app should handle a $70 private, a $25 drill session and a doubles lesson for four friends, and KadePay treats each as a service, a link or a pack.
Cancellations and weather are the two biggest leaks. A signed policy plus an authorized card lets you charge late cancels fairly, while rain days simply stay on the pack until the lesson is played. Junior tennis program fees fit a payment plan with installments you agree with each parent.
KadePay does not reserve courts or run ladders and leagues. Keep court bookings with your club or park, and use KadePay for lessons, clinics, packs and the payments that come with them. Business gift cards round it out for the spouse who wants to give five lessons as a birthday present.
CLEAR ANSWERS
For an independent coach, the best fit runs from a phone at the court. KadePay takes lesson requests, sells lesson packs, collects clinic payments by link or QR, stores an authorized card for late cancels, and accepts cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay and bank transfer.
State your notice window, such as 24 hours, in a policy players sign before the first lesson, and ask them to authorize a card. If they cancel inside that window, charge the fee your signed policy describes. The player is notified and receives a receipt.
Yes. Create separate packages, such as five pickleball privates for $300 and ten tennis lessons for $650, and record each lesson as it is played. A pack does not book the lessons; players still request each time.
Create a fixed-price payment link for the clinic and share it by text, email or a QR code on the court fence. Add a question for level or partner name. KadePay does not cap sign-ups, so keep an eye on the count for your court space.
No. KadePay handles lesson requests, packs, clinic payments and waivers. Court reservations stay with your club or park system, and each lesson appointment can carry the court address so you keep track of where you teach.
Pay-As-You-Go starts at $0 per month for a pro teaching on their own; payment and usage fees apply. Coaches who add assistant pros or monthly junior billing can move to Team at $10 per month or Pro at $35 per month, both listed on the pricing page.
