Do players pay to take part in an event?

Only for a paid event. Players register for free and view schedules and standings at no cost. If you charge an entry fee, the participant pays that amount plus a 4% platform fee (minimum €0.95); you receive the full entry fee. A free event costs nobody anything.

Can I try Slams for free?

Yes. Every account starts for free on the Start plan with two simultaneously active events, up to 20 teams, and one location. If you want more, you can upgrade to Plus (€19 per month) or Pro (€39 per month).

Can players enter their own results?

Yes. Share the per-match score-entry link or put up a court QR code. Players then enter their own score, and you keep an overview in the dashboard.

This page brings together the questions we get most often, each with a link to the article where you'll find the full answer. Still stuck? At the bottom you'll read how to reach us directly.

Getting started

New to Slams? Start with what Slams is and creating an account. After that you'll quickly set up your first tournament or first ladder competition. Not sure about the setup? Read which format to choose or check the full format overview.

Participants and teams

You can add players, let them register themselves, or import a list via CSV. You'll also find how to create teams and replace an injured player here.

Registrations and payments

Share a registration link, set an entry fee and a deadline, and manage everything under managing registrations. For payments, connect a payment method (card, SEPA and more via Mollie or Stripe). If a part fills up, the waiting list kicks in automatically.

Schedule and courts

Slams creates the schedule for you. You set up your courts and plan with the day planner. If matches overlap or you need to move something, take a look at overlapping matches and rescheduling matches.

Scores, standings and rating

You enter results via the dashboard, a per-match score-entry link, or a court QR code. See entering scores and correcting a result. The standings update automatically, and for competitive formats the Slams rating adjusts after each match. Note: the Americano family and Team Clash don't count toward the rating.

Sharing and visibility

Every club has its own club page. You can show the live schedule on a TV screen, embed your events on your own website, and control who sees what under visibility and access.

Account and subscription

You start for free on the Start plan. Need more? Check the plans and pricing, track your revenue in the finance overview, or read how to cancel your subscription.
