Unclaimed venues
Some paid courts and every golf course are listed from public information before they've partnered with us. You organise there on Courta and pay the venue directly. Courta charges nothing.
Refunds
Leave a paid game at least 24 hours ahead for a full refund. If the host or coach cancels, everyone is refunded in full.
Payouts
Coaches and venues connect a bank account once through Stripe. Their share of each booking is transferred automatically after the game.
Why a fee at all
It's what runs Courta: the site, payments, support and adding new courts. We keep it small and capped so it never changes whether you play.
