playdesk for climbing walls
For walls that are booked and timed
playdesk suits climbing walls that are booked by the session: an auto-belay slot, a bouldering area hired for a group, or a birthday party on the wall. Each wall is a space on the calendar, timed and billed like any other session.
Harnesses, shoes and chalk are sold as add-ons on the same bill. If your gym runs mostly on day passes and memberships, check that this way of working fits you before you switch.

What you get
What climbing walls use most
Booking Management
Take bookings at the front desk and from customers with an account. Availability takes in your opening hours, your slot rules, other bookings and whatever is being played right now.
Point of Sale
Sell food, drinks and accessories against a running table, court or PC. Each order is linked to the right space, and can be linked to the right player too.
Session Management
The timer starts when the game does and the bill follows it. No stopwatch at the counter, and no arguing over how long a game ran.
Customer Wallet & Credit
Regulars can top up a wallet in advance or run a tab and pay later, up to a limit you set. Every top-up and payment is on a ledger.
Customer Records
See who your regulars are, what they book, how often they come in and what they spend.
Reports

FAQ
Questions about playdesk for climbing walls
How much does playdesk cost for climbing walls?
$14 a month for each wall, with every feature included. A venue with 8 walls pays $112 a month. There's no setup fee and no contract, and in some countries the price is lower.
Can I add gear hire to a climbing session?
Yes. Harnesses, shoes and chalk are sold as add-ons and go on the same bill as the wall session.
Can customers book climbing walls online?
Yes. Customers with an account can book climbing walls 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.
