Why Sports Clubs Choose Book & Go Over Mariana Tek

The four biggest reasons sports clubs skip Mariana Tek and choose Book & Go.

Built for Fitness Studios, Not Sports Clubs

Mariana Tek was designed for boutique fitness studios — pilates, yoga, barre, cycling, and group fitness classes. Sports clubs need court-specific scheduling, tournament management, player rankings, and open-match coordination — features Mariana Tek does not offer because it was built for fitness classes, not court-based sports.

No True White-Label App

Mariana Tek offers a custom-branded app with the studio's logo and branding, but it's published by Mariana Tek. Sports clubs need a fully branded white-label app published under the club's own name on the App Store and Google Play. Book & Go includes a true white-label app on all plans with no extra charge.

No Tournament or Competition Features

Mariana Tek has zero tournament management, brackets, or player ranking features. These are core features for sports clubs but irrelevant for fitness studios. Book & Go includes full tournament and league management with automated draws, brackets, and rankings.

Fitness Studio Business Model, Not Court-Based Sports

Mariana Tek is optimized for fitness studio scheduling with features like class check-ins, gamification for studio challenges, and feedback suites. Sports clubs need court-specific features, tournament systems, player matching, and competitive sports management. Book & Go was purpose-built for court-based sports clubs.

What exactly does a club get with Book & Go?
