Booking behaviours and habits

Beavers Community Primary School partnered with Playfinder to maximise the utilisation of facilities during out of school hours. As a result of the partnership, Playfinder managed to average 30 extra bookings a month on their 7-a-side 3G pitch which is after school hours and at weekends.

Managing online bookings with Bookteq also grants venues a listing on the Playfinder app, allowing players to view availability and book on the go.

As a result of this:

  • 28.2% of new bookings at Beavers Lodge are made through the Playfinder app
  • 35% of bookings at Beavers Lodge are made on an ad-hoc (1 booking) basis through Playfinder

Payments & breakdown

Before the relationship started the primary school were logging payments manually (cash, POS terminal, bank transfer). As a result of adopting the Bookteq software, Barbara and other staff have enjoyed saving time chasing payments and issuing invoices.

“Playfinder provides detailed breakdowns each month of bookings received and payments made.”Barbara
