Hi, Andrés
Your academy today
Sound familiar?
You start collecting on the 10th and it's already too late — some families are already gone without paying.
You send 30 individual WhatsApp messages every time it rains.
Attendance sheets are on paper and get filled in at the end of the day.
Only your staff knows which courts are free — and they don't rent them out often.
You don't find out someone stopped coming until they stop paying.
People look for classes or court rentals on Sunday at 10pm and can't find you.
What Cancha solves
Your staff stops chasing payments and cross-checking spreadsheets. The system bills automatically, sends reminders at every stage, and blocks bookings if a family doesn't pay — without anyone having to be the bad guy.
Today you find out a student left when they stop paying. With Cancha you see who's drifting away before they leave — real data, not a hunch.
A new parent can open an account, enroll their kid, and pay — all in minutes, from their phone, without calling you. Families already enrolled can book courts, schedule makeups, and pay whenever they want.
The transformation
Does it pay for itself?
Three facts about your academy is all it takes to find out.
24/7 online booking — someone books at 11pm for tomorrow, without calling you.
Your time valued at $5 USD/hour — typical admin staff cost.
Conservative estimate: academies recover ~3% of monthly billing with automatic staged reminders and booking blocks for unpaid families.
One platform. Any court sport.
Courts, classes, levels, billing, attendance — the flow is the same. Cancha adapts to your sport.
Run both? Cancha handles them from one place.
Built with real academy owners
We designed it alongside a real academy — watching up close how they bill, how they schedule, and how students slip away without anyone noticing. A few findings changed how we built Cancha:
Pricing
Cancha doesn't add its own fee. Mercado Pago charges its standard rate (~3.5–4.5% depending on payment method). You get paid directly — we never touch your money.
Frequently asked questions
They don't need to download anything. Cancha is a website that opens on their phone — like opening a WhatsApp link. And online payment is optional: you can keep collecting by transfer and log it in the system. But you'll be surprised how many clients prefer paying with one click at 10pm from their couch.
Cancha notifies them at every stage: when early payment opens (with a discount if you offer one), when it moves to on-time, and when it's late — always with the exact deadline and what happens if they don't pay (new bookings blocked until they catch up). No one finds out late, not you, not them.
That's exactly the problem Cancha was designed to solve. A student's profile, their billing account, their attendance, and their makeups are connected from day one. They're not two systems you have to cross-reference — it's one.
We help you migrate your data and set up your academy. After that, the system saves you time instead of costing you more. Checking off attendance on a phone is faster than filling out a paper list.
Cancha runs in the cloud — your data is backed up at all times, with nothing for you to do. Checking off attendance takes seconds, even with a weak signal at the courts.
That fee isn't a new cost — it replaces the hours your staff spends chasing payments over WhatsApp. The system collects for you, automatically, without anyone feeling awkward about it. The real question: how many monthly payments a year do you lose because nobody collected on time?
Cancha works for any court sport. The enrollment, classes, levels, bookings, billing, and attendance flow is the same. You set up your court type and you're ready to go.
