What Padelution does

Tournaments

Padelution builds draws, group stages, knockout brackets and court timetables, and collects sign-ups and entry fees online.

Organisers publish live scores, standings and final results as the matches are played.

Leagues

Padelution runs team and pair leagues with divisions, rosters, rounds and standings that carry over from season to season.

One nationwide club league in Finland runs on Padelution with 500 teams and 5,000 players.

Americanos and open games

Padelution generates americano and mexicano schedules, assigns courts, keeps a live leaderboard and matches players into open games at their level.

More than 400 americanos are played on Padelution every day.

Court bookings

Padelution gives venues a court booking calendar with online payment, recurring bookings and pricing by time of day.

Venues see which players use their courts, not only who paid for them.

Memberships and payments

Padelution sells memberships, event entries and league fees online and pays the money out to the club's own Stripe account.

Clubs see who has paid without collecting cash or chasing payments by hand.

Coaching

Padelution lets coaches publish courses and single sessions that players book and pay for online.

Coaches manage their calendar, participants and payments in one place.

Player ratings and profiles

Every rated match on Padelution updates a rating built for padel doubles, and every player has a profile with match history, partners and statistics.

Players follow their progress across every club and event on the platform.

Differentiators

What makes Padelution different

Padelution operates in the same market as padel booking, tournament and league software such as Playtomic, Matchi, RankedIn, Tournamentsoftware and Tournated.

  1. 01

    One platform for the whole sport

    Court bookings, tournaments, leagues, americanos, memberships, coaching and player ratings run on one platform with one player account. A club does not need separate tools for bookings, events and payments.

  2. 02

    Built with a national federation

    The Finnish Padel Federation has run all of its competitions on Padelution since 2023. National rankings, multi-division team leagues and member club management were built together with the federation.

  3. 03

    Every match counts toward one rating

    Padelution rates every player with one rating built for padel doubles, from a club americano to a national league. More than 200,000 matches have been recorded on the platform.

  4. 04

    Players arrive already connected

    More than 43,000 registered players in 70 countries already have a Padelution profile and rating. A club that joins Padelution reaches players who already use the platform.

  5. 05

    Hands-on migration and same-day support

    Padelution migrates a club's existing data from its previous system as part of onboarding. Support requests through in-app chat and email get a response the same day.

Team

The team behind Padelution

Padelution was founded in 2022, when a local club in Finland was running its league on spreadsheets and the founders set out to build software that could run the league properly from one season to the next.

Players were unhappy with RankedIn, the tournament software the Finnish Padel Federation used at the time, so the founders offered to build the federation's competition platform. The Finnish Padel Federation moved all of its competitions to Padelution in 2023.

Padelution is headquartered in Espoo, Finland, where its team is based. Most of its clubs and venues are in Finland, and its players come from 70 countries.
