Help Us Make CourtReserve Better! 🗣️
We want to hear from you! Your ideas and feedback drive the continuous improvement of CourtReserve. Submit your ideas here and vote on your favorites to help shape our platform's future. Our product team reviews the idea board and updates our roadmap every 90 days, so your suggestions can directly impact upcoming features.
The Process
To ensure that everyone understands the process the Product Team follows when reviewing/addressing submitted ideas, below is a breakdown of statuses:
- Unmarked: This is the initial status when an idea is submitted. The Product Team will review all submitted ideas to determine how best to move forward.
- Internal Review: The Product Team will review the submitted idea to determine scope of the request. A Product Owner (PO) may reach out to you for more detail.
- Not Planned: If the Product Team determines that the idea is not valid or is not something that aligns with Product goals, the idea will be declined/marked as not planned.
- Waiting on Votes: After the Product Team decides to move forward with an idea, this status will be set to allow time for others to vote on the idea. Ideas will be kept in this status for 90 days, as this will allow for enough time to garner votes and for the Product Team to better understand priority based on the number of votes received.
- Accepted for Future Development: Once the idea has been reviewed, discussed with the submitter (as needed), and prioritized by a PO, the idea will be accepted for development in an upcoming sprint. The timeframe for development will be determined based on other existing priorities/team capacity.
- In Progress: When the idea has been estimated, the idea is considered in progress.
- Beta: If the idea requires a beta testing period, this status will be set. This remains the status until Beta testing is completed.
- Completed: Once the idea is released to Production, the idea is considered completed.
Throughout the process outlined above, POs will provide updates to keep you in the loop.
Thank you for being an essential part of the CourtReserve community!
Booking restrictions that only include reservations made by the member
Schedules/Sessions inside of an Event
Ability to make the # of Guests field mandatory for reservation types that allow guests
We have a reservation type called Doubles With Guests (separate from Doubles which is for members only) that allows a minimum of 3 players and a maximum of 4 players. With any reservation types that allow guests, we want there to be at least one guest specified and accordingly, we would like the #Guests field to be mandatory. This will prevent people from bringing a guest but not specifying the guest on the booking and therefore not paying the guest fee. Given that not all clubs may want this field to be mandatory, having an option to specify whether it is or not (sort of like the fields on the CR Signup form) would be great.
Split Court Reservation
We would like to have the ability to have a reservation split up if it is not able to be booked all on one court. Example: if a reservation is for 90 minutes but court 1 has 60 minutes and court 2 has the remaining 30 minutes, for it to automatically book it and let us know.
Event Email (reorder by filtered)
When you are under an event, and you need to email a few players (usually the ones on top because I have sorted it prior) it would be nice when you click the email button if they would stay in that order.
Scenario: Pulled players off the waitlist into an event and I want to notify a small details or instructions (that the non-waitlisted players already received).
Currently I sort those by date registered, go to email button but when the list comes up, they are not in the order I sorted by.
Instead of clicking the top 4 players and going to the email I have to fish through the list a click on the players I want to include. I Love that you added how many you are sending to before sending - helps fact check your list.
add the ability to choose never played- null value for 1st visit
Would like to be able to run a report by players who have created a profile but have never visited our facility and then be able to easily send an email off the reporting function. Right now I have to run a report, sort, download then select the names manually to send an email in the CR system.
A way to put a staff alert on a client, so any staff know there is an issue to be addressed (so staff can see but client cannot)
A client without proper payment method on file. A client that is repeatedly rude or confrontational. A client that owes. Needs to be seen in the app as well, so a coach checking in a kid can know to send kid/parent back to the desk for payment info or whatever.
credit limit
Allow a credit limit to be defined for each membership type, and also allow this value to be overridden for individual members. If credit limit is exceeded, system should suspend account until paid.
Member Report - Filtering for Birth Months for Member Birthday Cards
Every month, we send out birthday cards to all of our players who are celebrating a birthday in the upcoming month. I tested the "Member Report" to see if there was an easy way to figure out who has an upcoming birthday. Although Date of Birth is a field in the report, it sorts based on the entire date (year/month/day). Aside from exporting to Excel, it would be helpful to have an easy way to isolate birth month.
note box when voiding a fee in member transactions
Can you please add a note box when we void a fee through the member's account, member transactions. Helps document reason for auditing purposes.
Thanks!
Adding Price & Payment Button to Event Registration Emails
When a member is registered for an event, have the email sent to them notifying them they've been registered show the price for the event and a button for them to pay now that would open the browser on PC and opens the even in the CourtReserve app if on mobile.
Example:

confirmation link included in email/text reminder about upcoming lessons or clinics so members can "confirm" their already scheduled session
can we include an option in the automatic reminder notifications for members to CONFIRM or CANCEL their upcoming session? could this be added to the automatic 'reminder' notifications 12 hours prior to their scheduled lesson, clinic or court reservation?
Cancellation time window unless waitlist exists
Add a Setting to restrict the ability to cancel any activity within X hours unless a waitlist exists
Copy events by week vs by event
Have the ability to copy a week's (or another designated time frame) worth of events, rather than copy event by event. For example, we have a similar open play schedule week-to-week. Instead of going into each event and copying it with new dates (or changing the end date to extend), it would be easier to choose a week to copy and have all events in that week copied for the next at once.
Auto accept members based on Membership type
Allow for some membership types to be auto accepted and other to require approval. This would allow us to accept non-members into the system quickly and allow them to start joining events. Full members need everything verified before receiving their full member discount.
Private Member Groups
Have a setting on Member Groups to only be visible on the Member Portal to members within the member group.
Billing Occurring Even Though a Member Cancels Their Membership
We set our Membership Dues Notification to be 7 days, thinking the member would get an email 7 days prior to the due date, so if they cancelled their membership, or changed it, they would not be charged on their due date. However, Justin indicated that CR has set its Membership Dues Notification date to be simultaneously the same as the Billing Cycle getting generated. As such, if someone cancels their membership, it is still going to show a balance due, and an Administrator has to go in and manually cancel the membership dues. We would prefer, that the Billing Cycle not be tied to the Membership Dues Notification. The Billing Cycle should stay as the next due date, so if a member goes in and cancels their membership within that 7 day email notification timeframe, they will not be charged for that upcoming billing cycle. This would remove the need to have to manually void that transaction.
Put the name of a saved report at the top of the report
Not sure if this is feasible, but when a saved report is loaded and run, would it be possible to show the name of the saved report at the top, so that when we have multiple tabs open with report results, we can tell them apart?
Add ability to show a custom member field on the scheduler and have a icon to depict it exists. Example (Locker #)
This would be a great feature for our front desk staff to quickly look up custom member information right from the scheduler.
Require a Minimum Amount to use Credit Card Online
Require customers to add money to their online account, versus charging lots of small amounts to their credit card. Since the current merchant account with Court Reserve charges a high PER Transaction Fee, it gets very expensive when customers are paying lots of $5 fees online for open play sessions, etc. Company should be able to set minimum amount for credit card charges. This would also go hand in hand with the proposed modification to allow customers to add their own Credit to their Online Account instead of staff having to do it for them.
if The tennis pro is blocked, the System should not allow to double book them... Thanks
If the pro is blocked for lunch, the front desk can still book lessons or double book them.
The system shouldn't allow them to do that.
Please Help.
Thanks
Available Spots to be set up at the Event set up, not all or nothing
It seems to make more sense that the ability to show Available Spots should be a set up at the event level. That way we can decide which events we may or may not want to show available spots. There are some events that we do want to show available spots and others we do not. Currently, it is an all or nothing option...that either spots available is enable or disabled for ALL events.
Add a start month to the quarterly payment option for memberships
We run quarters from Sept-Nov (Fall), Dec-Feb (Winter), Mar-May (Spring) and Jun-Aug (Summer), in line with the school systems. At the moment, quarterly payment options are codes to start Jan 1, Apr 1, Jul 1, Oct 1.. Add a 'start month' option to the quarterly payment option.
Google Calendar improvement
For lessons, when looking at my google calendar, I would very much like to see the name of the person I'm giving the lesson (and not have to click into the notes to see). so, the "title" of these calendar events that are created would say "Private Lesson, and then, for private lessons, one name)"

Add Setting - Disable Drag & Drop on Courts Schedulers - Mobile devices
It's very easy to accidentally move reservations when browsing the court reservations on the mobile app as an admin.
A separate setting to disable drag & drop on mobile, while still allowing it for the desktop web portal would be nice.
Member Name detailed invoice breakdown
Add Member Name for Family linked members on detailed invoice breakdown We often get questions from husband and wife and even more from families when an invoice arrives and they can't identify who played or bought an item.
Offer a Setting to require a court when creating events
Currently, Events can be created without assigning a court. Please add a Setting that will make court assignment mandatory (if the Setting is on) or optional (if off), as already exists for Lessons.
Exceed maximum enrollment on Full Event - permission needed
Add sub-admin permission to allow or Not Allow exceeding maximum enrollment on a Full Event. Over-registration attempt might prompt a link to Waitlist instead.
