Introducing our newest CourtReserve features & updates
Get ready to discover the latest updates and features we’ve rolled out – designed to simplify operations, boost efficiency, and enhance your overall club experience.
See our February Launch webinar covering all of January’s releases:
🆕 Brivo integration: Smarter access control for your club
We’ve partnered with Brivo, a cloud-based access control solution, to bring you a brand-new CourtReserve integration for entry management and facility security. In other words, the Brivo integration allows you to manage your members’ access to courts, doors, and restricted areas.
With the CourtReserve x Brivo integration, you can:
- Grant unique PIN codes: Each member is assigned a secure PIN code, automatically linked to their CourtReserve account for effortless management.
- Ensure time-based access: Access is precisely timed with booking and registration schedules, so members can only enter during their reserved times.
- Enhance security and operational efficiency: Safeguard your facilities by restricting unauthorized access and streamlining access management processes.
Designed to provide smooth management of facility access, our new Brivo integration eliminates manual entry processes and creates a more secure environment for your members.

🆕 API Access: Connect and enhance your systems
For those who may not be familiar, an API (Application Programming Interface) is a set of rules or protocols that creates a ‘digital bridge’ between applications – enabling them to communicate and share data automatically.
By using APIs, you can centralize your essential tools and information in one place – reducing the need to switch between multiple systems. This helps to streamline workflows and enhances the overall functionality of your platforms.
Which brings us to our new API access integration…
CourtReserve’s new API Access integration empowers you to easily connect our platform with external systems – providing secure access to key features like membership management, reservations, event scheduling, and transaction handling.

CourtReserve’s API Access enables you to:

- Streamline operations: Improve functionality and workflow efficiency by connecting external systems to CourtReserve.
This integration is available for our Scale and Enterprise tier subscribers – helping you simplify and scale operations with ease.
And, this integration is available in 2 versions:
- Organization API: Ideal for localized control at individual locations.
- Enterprise API: Perfect for multi-location management, offering centralized reporting and insights.

🆕 Preset Filters on Sales Summary for quick insights

- Save time on reporting: Instantly apply pre-configured filters for common reporting needs.
- Access targeted insights:
- Cash Basis (End of Month): Review month-end cash-based revenue.
- Individual Instructor Revenue (Last Week): See how much each instructor earned over the last week.
- Revenue Generated (Last Month): Track total revenue generated during the previous month.

Enterprise Navigation Updates: Simplifying multi-location management
Managing multi-location operations just got easier with our Enterprise Navigation Updates. These enhancements are designed to provide a more intuitive experience, streamline workflows, and set the stage for future improvements.
Specifically, the Enterprise Navigation Updates bring:
- New Enterprise Dashboard: A dedicated space accessible via the Enterprise link, replacing the previous drop-down menu. This dashboard centralizes key tools and makes managing multi-location operations more efficient.
- Enhanced user management: Enterprise Managers can now add and manage additional team members through the new dashboard. Easily grant permissions, assign roles, and control access across all locations without affecting system-level users.
- Expanded reporting tools: Access two additional high-level summary reports across all locations and dive into detailed location-specific insights without the need to navigate between accounts.
These updates simplify navigation, improve user management, and provide powerful tools to help you oversee your enterprise-level operations with confidence.

5 other notable CourtReserve features & updates
In addition to our larger releases, we’ve rolled out a handful of smaller enhancements that pack a punch. Here’s a quick rundown of 5 notable additions you won’t want to miss.
1. Automate membership cancellation notices
We’ve introduced 2 new notification features to ensure both system users and members stay informed about membership cancellations – improving communication and clarity.
- Auto-Cancellation Membership Notification: System users and members will now receive notifications when memberships are auto-canceled due to lack of payment.
- Membership Cancellation Notice: Members are notified when their memberships are canceled, with a new setting available under Player Notifications > Membership. (Excludes free memberships and transitions between paid plans.)
2. Require payment profiles for free events
Admins can now require a payment profile for event registration, even if the event is free. This update ensures flexibility by separating the logic of payment profiles from event pricing – making it easier to manage registrations for free events.
3. Offer Pre-Authorized Debit with Stripe (Canada-only)
Canadian organizations using Stripe can now offer Pre-Authorized Debit (PAD), similar to ACH/eCheck in the United States. Currently in Closed Beta, this feature will be available to all Canadian Stripe customers this spring.

4. Free to paid reservations now trigger payment
When a member edits a reservation from free to paid, upfront payment is now required if the organization enforces this rule. Members will receive a timer notification and be redirected to the payment screen. If payment isn’t completed within the required window, the reservation will be canceled.
5. Pre-purchased memberships included in membership totals
A new setting under Memberships allows pre-purchased memberships with future start dates to be included in the Total Assigned Memberships and Total Accounts counters.
