WordPress plugin · Version 1.1.3
ABeCe Booking
Manage facilities, bookings, prices and memberships in one place. Start for free and choose the edition that suits your venue.
Lite 1.1.3 is available on WordPress.org. Starter, Club and Pro add customer online bookings.
Experience in development and daily operations
A booking system needs to work for customers and for the people running the venue. Through development, hands-on operation and long-term work with venue operators, we deal with regular training sessions, memberships, schedule changes, pricing exceptions and outstanding payments.
ABeCe Booking is built around those lessons.
Record bookings, set opening hours, manage prices and check availability directly in WordPress. To let players book online themselves, choose Starter, Club or Pro.
ABeCe Booking goes beyond tennis courts. It is designed for sports clubs and venues that need to book courts, lanes, tables or other facilities for specific time slots.
ABeCe Booking runs directly on your WordPress website, with booking data stored in your own WordPress database.
Lite · Free
Staff enter bookings received by phone or in person. The calendar, opening hours, prices and payment records are in one place. There is no limit on managed facilities or staff-created bookings.
Visitors can view occupancy. Lite does not let customers create their own bookings.
Starter, Club and Pro
Customers sign in with a WordPress account, choose an available slot and book. The system checks availability, pricing and conflicts. Customers can manage their bookings and cancel under your venue’s rules.
For example, Starter can manage 12 facilities and offer four of them for online booking. Club and Pro have no online facility quota.
From booking to daily operations
From Starter
Starter lets customers book on up to four selected online-bookable facilities. Club and Pro have no such quota. All paid editions include customer booking management and online cancellation.
Every edition
Set individual opening hours, sport types and other settings for each facility. Use schedule exceptions for public holidays or special opening days, and block time slots for tournaments, club events or maintenance. Outdoor facilities can also follow sunrise and sunset times.
Lite basics · Price bands from Starter
Lite covers facility rates, payments and unpaid balances. Starter adds off-peak and peak pricing plus bank instructions with QR codes. Pro supports credit payments.
From Club
Club and Pro manage members, seasons and member pricing based on who is playing. Imports, bulk renewals and playing-time limits simplify club administration.
From Starter
Staff create a recurring series with conflict checks, then edit individual or following dates as needed. Several facilities can be blocked together for tournaments, club events or maintenance.
Every edition · Financial reporting in Pro only
Staff book for customers and handle cancellations and no-shows under club rules. Every edition includes change history, basic statistics and privacy tools; Pro adds financial reporting.
Manage facilities, visibility and availability in one place. Internal management is unlimited in every edition; in Premium, you separately select facilities for customer online bookings.
Built around club operations
From Starter, vary prices by time of day, facility or date range. In Club and Pro, you can give members a 100% discount on their share: two members play free, while one member playing with one guest pays half the standard booking price. This is an optional setup; your club decides the rules.
Lite includes payment and receivable records. For staff-managed bookings, the operator can review debts and confirm an exception with a reason. From Starter, the system can reject a debtor’s further self-service bookings after a grace period.
A player has CZK 1,000 in credit and selects credit payment for a CZK 300 booking. Pro deducts the charge, leaving CZK 700. If the booking is cancelled, the system calculates any refund under the configured cancellation terms. All transactions remain recorded in the credit history.
For training every Tuesday at 5 pm, staff create one series. From Starter, the system checks for conflicts before creating the bookings. If a training session is cancelled or needs to be rescheduled, the manager can update that booking without changing the remaining sessions in the series.
Four editions, room to grow
Lite is free with no time limit. Paid editions have an annual license for one production site. Every edition includes unlimited internally managed facilities.

Privacy tools in every edition
Records stay in your WordPress database. Every edition includes export, erasure and retention tools. The operator is responsible for the purpose and legal basis of processing; an erasure request does not itself delete bookings or outstanding obligations.
From choosing an edition to your first booking
When switching from current Lite, back up the site and database first. Upload Premium, deactivate Lite and activate Premium; do not run both editions at once. The supported procedure retains operational data. Historical test versions may require individual migration.
Practical answers
Yes. Install the plugin on your own hosted WordPress website. Booking management and the public calendar run as part of that website.
Lite is free with no time limit, paid license or mandatory Freemius account. Staff can create unlimited bookings across unlimited facilities, for example by phone. It includes a calendar, opening hours, blocks, basic pricing, payments and receivables, basic statistics, emails and privacy tools. The public can view availability; customers cannot book online themselves in Lite.
Every edition lets you manage unlimited facilities internally. Starter adds customer online bookings for up to four selected facilities, recurring bookings, price bands and bank/QR instructions. You can manage twelve facilities and offer four online. Club and Pro have no online facility limit; Club adds memberships and member pricing, while Pro also adds credits and financial reports.
Yes, in Starter, Club and Pro, after signing in with a WordPress account. Customers choose from the facilities enabled for online booking by the operator. In Lite they can view occupancy and contact staff to book.
The facility remains in administration and existing bookings are retained. New customer bookings for that facility stop. In an edition with self-service, customers can still view and cancel their existing bookings under your rules.
The supported move from current Lite to Premium or between plans retains bookings and other operational data. Back up your site and database and follow the installation instructions; historical test versions may require individual migration. Paid features depend on the license. Moving from Club to Starter with more than four online facilities pauses new online bookings until an administrator reduces the selection. Internal management continues.
The listed paid edition price covers one year for one production site. Subscription and renewal terms are shown in the Freemius checkout before purchase. Purchased features remain active after normal expiry; updates and support require a valid license. License revocation or a refund can change paid access. A license change does not itself delete operational data.
Every edition lets you set a basic price for each facility. Starter adds price bands by time of day, day or period. Club and Pro let you manage memberships and account for member pricing and mixed groups of members and non-members.
Every edition includes manual payment and receivable records. From Starter, provide bank/QR instructions and reject new self-service bookings under your debtor rules. Pro adds credit accounts with deductions and refunds. Bank/QR instructions are not a card gateway or automatic bank reconciliation; staff confirm receipt.
Staff can cancel bookings under your configured terms in every edition. From Starter, customers can cancel their own bookings online and see the calculated fee before confirming. In Pro, eligible credit refunds return to the credit account; staff make and record bank refunds.
Yes. All editions, including Lite, ship with 12 language variants. The public interface follows the site or current page language determined by WordPress; administration follows the user’s profile language. Your own website content is not translated automatically.
Records are stored in your WordPress database on your hosting. Every edition has personal-data export, erasure and retention tools. The operator is responsible for backups, access, legal bases and privacy policies. The plugin alone does not ensure GDPR compliance.
Lite receives standard updates from WordPress.org. Premium receives updates through Freemius in the WordPress administration with a valid license. Back up the site and database before updating. For historical test versions, arrange a supported upgrade procedure first.
