Clubspark players download a shared Clubspark-branded app. Book & Go gives you a white-label iOS/Android app published under YOUR club name — zero ads, zero transaction fees, zero federation ties.
Book & Go is the best ClubSpark alternative if you want your own fully branded app, operate outside the UK, or need features beyond court booking. ClubSpark is UK-LTA focused; Book & Go is international with POS, memberships, and tournaments.
The four biggest reasons sports clubs are switching to Book & Go.
Clubspark players download "Clubspark Booker" — a shared app used by all clubs. They see the Clubspark brand, not yours. Book & Go publishes a native iOS/Android app under YOUR club name on the App Store and Google Play. Players see only your brand, your logo, your colors — zero Clubspark visibility.
Clubspark charges 0.8–1.4% + 5p on every transaction (on top of payment processor fees). If you do £50,000 in monthly bookings, that's up to £8,400/year in platform fees. Book & Go has zero per-booking commission — flat subscription only. All booking revenue stays with you.
Clubspark's £15/mo Basic plan includes advertising on your website and doesn't include court booking. You need Standard (£30/mo) just to get booking functionality. Book & Go includes booking, zero ads, and a white-label app on all plans — no gated features, no third-party promotions.
Clubspark is UK tennis-first with LTA federation ties. If your club is padel-focused, multi-sport, or operates outside the UK, Clubspark lacks the flexibility you need. Book & Go was built padel-first with full support for leagues, open matches, ranked results, tournaments — plus tennis, pickleball, squash, and badminton across any market.

If your club is LTA-registered in the UK and qualifies for free LTA Clubspark, the entry barrier is zero (subject to transaction fees). For small UK tennis clubs just getting started, this is a strong option.
LTA Clubspark clubs benefit from the LTA Play directory, which drives player discovery for UK-based tennis players. If your revenue model depends on walk-in UK tennis traffic, this marketplace effect is valuable.
Clubspark Premium (£75/mo) includes SmartAccess for lighting and door control. If court access automation is a priority and you're comfortable with the UK tennis focus, Clubspark has built-in hardware integrations.
