playdesk for billiard clubs
Know your regulars, not just your tables
A billiards club lives on the people who come back every week. playdesk keeps a profile for every customer with their visits, what they played and what they spent. You can see who your best players are, and who used to come in every Thursday and hasn't been seen for a month.
On the floor it works the way you'd expect. A table is booked online or started for a walk-in, the timer runs, bar orders attach to the table, and it all comes out as one bill. At closing, the day's takings are already split into table time and bar sales.

Before & after
What changes when you switch
The usual headaches at billiard clubs, and how playdesk deals with each one.
Old way
Online bookings in one place and walk-ins in another, so a table gets billed twice or not at all.
With playdesk
Every table, booked or walk-in, runs on one calendar with one timer.
Old way
No idea which regulars come in every week and which have drifted off.
With playdesk
Customer profiles show each regular's visit history and total spend.
Old way
Table time and bar takings that never quite match at the end of the night.
With playdesk
One bill per table, and the daily report splits takings into table time and bar.
Old way
Unpaid tabs on scraps of paper behind the counter.
With playdesk
Pay-later credit, with a running balance for each customer.

FAQ
Questions about playdesk for billiard clubs
How much does playdesk cost for billiard clubs?
$14 a month for each table, with every feature included. A venue with 8 tables pays $112 a month. There's no setup fee and no contract, and in some countries the price is lower.
Can I charge different rates at different times?
Yes. Set peak and off-peak rates by time of day and day of week, and playdesk applies the right rate to every minute played.
Can I see which billiard tables earn the most?
Yes. Reports show revenue and occupancy for each table by hour and by day, so you can check whether the tables by the window really are the popular ones.
Can customers book billiard tables online?
Yes. Customers with an account can book billiard tables themselves, and your front desk adds phone bookings and walk-ins to the same calendar. Everyone sees the same availability, and two people can't take the same slot.
Is session time billed automatically?
Yes. The timer starts with the session and bills the time actually played at that space's rate. Paused time isn't charged, and you can set a minimum charge. Nobody needs a stopwatch.
Does it include a point of sale?
Yes. Food, drinks, retail and add-ons go through the same POS and onto the same bill as the session. Kitchen orders show up in a live queue on the kitchen's screen.
Can I try playdesk before paying?
Yes. You get 14 days free, and you don't need a card to start.
