Playfinder provides a digital marketplace making it easy to book sports facilities online. We also provide a booking system, Bookteq, and a Fully Managed service that can help facility operators fill spare capacity and streamline operations. Playfinder works with operators of all types and sizes, ranging from local community centres and schools to major leisure operators, councils, and governing bodies.
Playfinder provides an cloud-based online booking software called Bookteq. The booking software not only facilitates online bookings and payments, but also simplifies the management of multiple venues and provides a bespoke invoicing solution which helps collect payments on time.
Playfinder’s in-house developers specialise in booking software integrations, meaning there’s no requirement to change your current software as long as we can integrate with it. Please contact us to see whether this is possible. All bookings made via these integrations are fully automated and speak directly to your existing booking system, preventing any double bookings and ensuring you are paid directly.
Customers are 5x times more likely to make a booking if they can view availability and make a booking online. Playfinder’s system allows online bookings and payments to be made 24/7 without the hassle of answering phone calls or emails. A simple booking journey eliminates enquiries for unavailable times, encourages new users, and makes it easy to rebook. As a result, Playfinder partners that offer online booking calendars see a significant increase in bookings at their venue.
Playfinder processes a wide range of bookings for our partnered venues including ad hoc bookings, block bookings, events such as birthday parties and corporate days, space hire, and filming sessions.

Playfinder partners with local authorities who have kept some, if not all, facility management in-house. Our booking system, Bookteq, and Bookteam, our Fully Managed service is ideal for councils who are looking for ways to manage sports bookings. Councils such as Waltham Forest, Ealing and Bedford all benefit from choosing Playfinder as their bookings partner which has led to a reduction of time spent on sports bookings, increased accessibility by local residents and better usage of the facilities.
