Lobby vs Playbypoint

All-in-one club platform
or flat software under your brand?

Playbypoint markets an all-in-one club platform with court scheduling, a pro shop, payments, and a white-label app. Lobby is newer club software for clubs that want a flat monthly fee, a custom domain, and a controlled migration.

When Playbypoint may be better

  • -You already run scheduling, the pro shop, and payments in one Playbypoint account and staff know it well.
  • -A branded native app in the app stores is a hard requirement for your members today.
  • -Your contract terms are clear and the invoice matches what the club actually uses.

When Lobby may be better

  • -You want to check every per-booking or module line against one flat Lobby software fee.
  • -You want the booking site on your own domain with emails and receipts under the club brand.
  • -You want a source review of your export and a verified week before public launch.

Questions

Decide with
current facts.

Is Playbypoint bad for clubs?
No. A single platform for scheduling, the pro shop, and payments suits clubs that use all of it. The question is whether your club pays for more than it uses.
Does Lobby have a white-label app?
Lobby runs on the club’s own domain with the club brand on the site, emails, and receipts. It is not a separate app-store listing.
What should we verify before switching?
Verify the invoice lines, export rights, what happens to the app and member accounts when the contract ends, and how future bookings can be carried over.
