Direct payments
Take card payments at the moment of booking, straight into your own Stripe account, so you are the merchant of record and the money is yours from the start.
Direct payments
Direct payments for sports clubs mean players pay by card at the moment of booking, straight into your own Stripe account. You stay the merchant of record, no-shows tend to fall, cash handling disappears, and you, not a platform, control payouts, refunds and disputes.
Because the money never passes through a marketplace wallet, there is no platform cut. Only Stripe's standard card fees apply, billed to your account, and RocketCourt charges 0% commission on a flat monthly fee. See how it fits the wider product on the club platform, or weigh it against the marketplace alternatives.
