The WhatsApp poll is not event management

You post in the group. Half the members miss it. Someone says "maybe". Three people ask "what time is it again?" the day before. And you have no idea who has actually paid.

Lost in the chat

Event details get buried under 47 messages about car parking. Members who muted the group never see the announcement. You end up sending the same information five times.

Cash on the night

"I'll pay next week" is the last thing you want to hear from someone holding a pint. Chasing small amounts from multiple people is exhausting and awkward, especially in a community setting.

No idea on numbers

You book a room for 40 and 15 turn up. Or you cater for 20 and 35 arrive. Without proper registration, you are always guessing — and guessing costs money.

Event creation

Create an event in under two minutes

Give it a name, set the date, add a description, and publish. That is genuinely all it takes. Your event gets its own page that you can share anywhere — your website, social media, email, or a WhatsApp message. Members can see the details and register in a couple of taps.

  • Rich event details — date, time, location, description, images, and any custom information
  • Shareable event page — each event gets a public URL that works on any device
  • Members-only or open — restrict events to current members or open them to the public
  • Event categories — training, social, competition, AGM. Organise your calendar your way
Registration & capacity

Know exactly who is coming

Set a capacity limit and ClubPlaces handles the rest. Members register online, the attendee list fills up in real time, and when the event is full, a waiting list kicks in automatically. If someone cancels, the next person on the list gets notified.

No more counting WhatsApp thumbs-ups. No more turning people away at the door because you did not know the event was oversubscribed. You get a clean attendee list with names, contact details, and payment status — ready to print or share with your team.

  • Capacity limits — set a maximum number of places and stop accepting registrations when full
  • Automatic waiting list — overflow goes to a queue. Cancellations promote the next person
  • Registration deadline — close registration at a specific date and time
  • Attendee management — view, export, and manage your attendee list from the dashboard
  • Cancellation handling — members can cancel their own registration. Admins can remove anyone
Paid or free

Collect payment at the point of registration

Running a quiz night with a fiver entry? A coaching session at three pounds a head? A gala dinner at forty pounds a ticket? Set a price on your event and members pay when they register. The money goes straight to your club's bank account via Stripe.

Pay on registration

Members pay online when they sign up. No chasing, no IOUs, no awkward conversations. Payment is confirmed before the place is booked.

Automatic tracking

Every payment is logged against the member and the event. Your treasurer gets a clean record without lifting a finger.

Free events too

Not every event needs a price tag. Training sessions, committee meetings, social gatherings — set the price to zero and just collect registrations.

Payments are powered by Stripe Connect. Your club is the merchant of record, so money goes directly to your bank account. Stripe's processing fees plus a 1.5% ClubPlaces platform fee apply. Learn more about how payments work.

Recurring events

Weekly training? Monthly socials? Sorted.

Most clubs run the same events on a regular basis. Tuesday night training. The monthly committee meeting. The annual presentation evening. ClubPlaces lets you clone events with a single click — or set up recurring events that create themselves automatically.

Clone an event and everything comes with it: the description, location, capacity, pricing, and settings. Just update the date and publish. It takes seconds instead of minutes, and you never forget to include important details.

  • One-click cloning — duplicate any past event and just change the date
  • Recurring schedules — set up weekly, fortnightly, or monthly events that create themselves
  • Event calendar — members see a calendar view of all upcoming events at a glance
  • Past event archive — view attendance and financials from previous events anytime

Stop guessing. Start registering.

ClubPlaces is just £10/month with a 30-day free trial. Create your first event in minutes and see who is actually coming.
