Understand the CourtBeam payment flow

What happens between a player choosing a time and your club seeing a successful payment.

Read the payment method before checkout

The player reviews the activity, required waiver, selected payment method and amount. Online card payments use the available payment-provider flow. Pay-at-club, club credit and no-charge activities have different outcomes; do not treat every confirmed reservation as a card payment.

Verify both activity and payment

After checkout, check that the booking, registration or membership exists and inspect its payment status. A pending checkout or temporary card authorization is not a completed charge.

For an at-club payment, staff record the money actually collected. For an offline membership, use the cash or bank-transfer membership flow; it does not start recurring online billing.

Reconcile the right records

Use CourtBeam for the activity and payment record, Settings → Online payments for the club’s connection, and Stripe for the corresponding online transaction and payout. Settings → Plan is your separate CourtBeam software subscription.
