What Pulse does

One system for operations, players and growth.

Pulse connects WhatsApp with Playtomic to answer players, organise your player data and turn quiet courts into booked ones.

01 · Operations

It doesn’t just reply. It resolves the request.

Pulse handles the questions your team sees every day, then completes the work in Playtomic—from booking links and player swaps to refunds and entry issues.

  • Replies instantly, in the player’s languageAround the clock, without adding to the front-desk queue.
  • Takes action in PlaytomicHandles swaps, refunds and booking changes players cannot make.
  • Hands over with contextWhen staff judgment is needed, your team gets the conversation and next action.

02 · Players

Playtomic stores your players. Pulse wins them back.

Your Playtomic data already shows who played, when they last booked and what they spend. Pulse turns it into a live player lifecycle, identifies who is drifting and builds the audience you can win back.

  • Every player automatically classifiedActive, lapsing or lapsed, based on booking behaviour.
  • Prioritised by revenue at riskSee who stopped booking and what their return could be worth.
  • From segment to campaignPulse drafts, sends and attributes each returning booking.

Pulse

Okay, checked your data. Tuesday and Wednesday 1 to 4pm ran at 24% occupancy. I found 184 quiet players who used to play those exact times but haven’t been back in the last 60 days.

I’ve built them into a segment and drafted a WhatsApp message you can send.

Hi, thanks for messaging Apex Padel. Ask me about courts, prices, bookings or coaching and I will sort it.14:54

Apex Padel is a demo club. On a call we show you this running on your own courts, prices and policies.

How it works

Live in days, not months.

01

Fill in the onboarding form

A simple onboarding site walks you through it. Add your clubs, courts, prices, policies and opening hours in a few minutes. Nothing for your staff to learn.

02

We connect Playtomic and WhatsApp

We plug into your Playtomic data and your WhatsApp Business number. Pulse builds a live picture of how your club really runs.

03

We test it, then switch it on

We test common questions, handoffs and booking flows against your club. Once you are happy, Pulse goes live on your WhatsApp number.

The bots have significantly improved our customer experience, streamlined internal operations, and allowed us to handle a much higher volume of enquiries with consistency and speed. The end product has exceeded our expectations.

See it running on your club's numbers.

A 30 minute call. We show you Pulse live, answer everything, and map it to your club.

Questions clubs ask

The things you are wondering.

Does Pulse work with Playtomic?

Yes. Pulse reads your Playtomic data and acts inside it - issuing refunds, swapping players into bookings and sorting court changes automatically. You keep Playtomic exactly as it is; Pulse sits on top of it.

Will it sound like a bot to my members?

No, and you don't have to take our word for it. The bot on this page is the same one that answers players every day, so message it and judge for yourself. We tune the tone, the phrasing and how formal it is to match the way your club already talks to its members, so it reads like your team rather than like software.

How much does Pulse cost?

Pricing depends on how many clubs and courts you run, so we quote it on a call. The 30 minute demo is free, there is no contract to sign to see it, and the first win-back campaign at Vida Del Padel returned £5,368 on £98 of WhatsApp spend.

Is player data secure and GDPR-compliant?

Player data stays your club's. Pulse acts as a data processor on your behalf under a Data Processing Agreement, handles messages over the official WhatsApp Business API, and is built to GDPR standards, both UK and EU. Clubs in the UAE are covered for its Personal Data Protection Law too.

How long does setup take?

Days, not months. You fill in a short onboarding form with your clubs, courts, prices, policies and opening hours, we connect Playtomic and your WhatsApp Business number, and Pulse goes live. There is nothing for your staff to learn.

What languages does the bot speak?

It replies in whatever language the player writes in, including Arabic and Spanish. You do not configure it or pick a language per club - a player messages in Portuguese and gets Portuguese back.

What if it gets a refund or a booking wrong?

Pulse only takes actions your club has authorised, and every one is logged against the player so you can see exactly what happened. Anything unusual or outside those rules is escalated to your team instead of guessed at, and a human can step into any conversation at any point.

What happens to my front-desk staff?

They stop doing admin, not their jobs. Pulse absorbs the repetitive message traffic, the refunds and the booking changes, which frees your team for coaching, events, members on site and the calls that actually need a person.

Does it work for clubs outside the UK?

Yes. Nothing about Pulse is tied to one country: it needs Playtomic and a WhatsApp Business number, and clubs run both right across Europe, the Middle East and beyond. The bot already answers in whatever language the player writes in, so a club in Spain gets Spanish and a club in Dubai gets Arabic without you configuring anything. We are live in the UK today and opening up to clubs elsewhere.
