Players mid-rally at a UK padel club

The team

Meet the Founders.

We started PingPadel after one too many evenings watching booked courts go unused. Players wanted to play. Venues wanted them filled. The fix was already in everyone's pocket — WhatsApp.

What We Stand For.

01

Players first

If it takes more than one tap to claim a court, it's too slow. We build for the way players already behave — on WhatsApp.

02

Venues keep control

Your courts, your players, your data. No commission, no middleman owning your relationships.

03

Speed is the product

An empty court is perishable inventory. Every second matters, so everything we ship is measured in seconds.
