Season totals, including an estimate of Stripe's own processing fees (cards 1.5% + 20p, Direct Debit 1% capped at £4 — Stripe's published rates, billed to your club by Stripe, the same as any card machine). PlayNow's fee is the flat rate shown on each plan, however a family pays.

Questions clubs actually ask

These are the money ones. The full FAQ covers setting up, verification and how parents register.

Is £50 a month really the whole price?

Yes. Club is £50 a month and Academy is £149, and that's the full amount — no VAT is added, because PlayNow isn't VAT-registered. If that ever changes, we'll tell you before it costs your club a penny more. Starter is free.

Who pays the transaction fees, parents or the club?

The club, and there are two lines: PlayNow's flat rate shown on this page, and Stripe's own processing fee, which Stripe bills to your club the same as any card machine. Both come off before the payment settles to your account. Parents pay exactly the price you set and never pay a fee to PlayNow.

Can we start free and upgrade later?

Yes. Every club starts on Starter, free, with up to 50 members. When you need more seats or coach timesheets, email hello@playnowclub.co.uk and we'll move you up the same day. No contract either way.

Can parents pay with Klarna, and what does it cost us?

Klarna is at every club's checkout as standard — it is part of how PlayNow works, so families always have an alternative to paying a season fee in full. Klarna is the lender — PlayNow does not provide or arrange credit — and Klarna sets its own terms, runs its own checks, and shows them to the family before they agree to anything. Your club is paid in full on day one, whichever way the family pays. PlayNow's fee is the same flat rate as any other payment, and Stripe prices Klarna at its own published rate, billed to your club like the rest.

When does money reach the club's account?

Payments settle to your club's own bank account on a payout schedule you choose, weekly by default. Your dashboard always shows what's collected and when the next payout lands.

Can we leave whenever we want?

Yes. There's no annual contract and nothing to cancel beyond the month you're in. Your registrations and payment history stay yours.

The small print, in plain English

  • Software prices are per club, cancel any time — and they're the whole price. No VAT is added; if PlayNow becomes VAT-registered we'll say so before anything changes.
  • Two lines come off each payment before it settles: PlayNow's flat rate, and Stripe's processing fee — Stripe's own bill, the same as any card machine.
  • Klarna is at every checkout as standard, and carries the same flat PlayNow rate as any other payment. Klarna is the lender — PlayNow does not provide or arrange credit.
  • No setup fee, no annual contract, no charge for parents, ever.
