What is VenueGlide
Sports venue booking and management software
VenueGlide is cloud-based operating system software for sports and recreation venues in Melbourne and across Australia.

The problem
Engineered for Sports Venues
Powerful Features Designed for Modern Sports Facilities
Secure Online Payments
Card payments through Stripe with instant, branded confirmation — card details never touch VenueGlide's servers.
Digital Waivers & Staffless Access
Waivers signed before play and a unique door PIN for every booking, so venues can open self-service hours.
Staff Operations Portal
One live screen to run the day: what's booked, who's coming, what's been paid and what needs attention.
Coaching, POS & Inventory
Coaching sessions, retail and the pro shop run through the same system as your bookings.
Reports & Xero Accounting
Nine built-in reports, a payments ledger and automatic Xero sync — no end-of-day spreadsheet reconciliation.
Booking Logic for Real Venues
Spaces overlap, equipment is shared and staff aren't always on site — VenueGlide models all of it.
Customer Accounts
Players and parents manage their own bookings, so the front desk isn't answering the same questions all day.
