Sports Court Booking Platform Development

The sports court rental market in the Philippines was fragmented and inefficient. Players struggled to discover nearby courts, check real-time availability, and book securely. Simultaneously, court owners relied on manual methods like phone calls and social media messages, leading to double bookings, payment issues, and limited market visibility.

As the Lead Full-Stack FlutterFlow Developer, I was responsible for the end-to-end design, development, and deployment of the entire platform. This included:

Architecting the database schema

Building two separate mobile applications

Integrating the payment gateway

Setting up the serverless backend infrastructure

The primary goal was to create a centralized, user-friendly digital marketplace. Key objectives included:

For Players: Provide a seamless mobile experience for discovering, booking, and paying for sports courts in minutes.

For Owners: Deliver a powerful management tool to automate bookings, manage schedules, track revenue, and increase customer reach.

Technical: Build a scalable, secure, and real-time platform capable of handling thousands of concurrent users and transactions.

This platform delivers significant value by replacing an outdated manual process with a modern, automated solution:

Reduces friction for players, giving instant access to a wide inventory of sports venues

Empowers court owners by streamlining operations, increasing online visibility, and creating a reliable new revenue stream

Scalable architecture supports growth, positioning the platform as a leading solution in the regional sports-tech market

The solution was executed using a modern, serverless tech stack to ensure performance and scalability.
