But don't just take our word for it.

When we first started, it took a lot of time to create programs, get the word out, set up registration, and figure out how we’re going to collect money. Now, we can literally have a program up and running in 10 minutes with Upper Hand.

Upper Hand is the first thing I check every morning to make sure that our coaches are on the schedule at the right time and at the right place. I've gotten to the point where they've gotten to the point where they use it so well that they don't need me anymore. They're on the app as much as I am.
Brad WoodallOwner, Silver Sluggers Academy
“I love the fact that I can use it on my phone. I mean, it’s a double edged sword: I’m constantly working because it’s on my phone, but if something were to happen where the two kiosks are overwhelmed, I can always grab my phone and check people in or help them out from there. Some of the marketing is amazing – being able to market and send invitations for our events in such a large quantity and so quickly is really great and efficient.”

Can my clients schedule themselves?

Yes! With Upper Hand, you can build out your program schedule or set your availability, empowering clients to book (and pay) from anywhere, on any device. This means less back and forth communication, and fewer missing payments. Not to mention the added convenience for your clients that improves their experience with your business.

But, if you’d rather manage all of your scheduling internally, we can help you manage that too! Ultimately, we provide the flexibility for you to run your business your way.

Do I have to pay for the number of admin users or resources?

Nope! With Upper Hand, we offer a few different price points that cater to different business models. From there, you can build out an unlimited number of events, add as many resources as you need, and invite as many staff members as you have.

How can Upper Hand support multiple locations?

Upper Hand offers a franchise software setup, supporting multi-location businesses that each operate separately. In this instance, you can build out separate instances for each location, which include that location’s programs, staff members, schedules, and more.

Additionally, Upper Hand also supports businesses who operate out of multiple spaces. For example, if you host practices at one of three parks in the area, you can denote which park each event or program will take place, ensuring you and your clients know where to be, and when.

What is Upper Hand’s support system?

Upper Hand is committed to providing support to both businesses and their clients, at any point in their journey.

At initial onboarding, admins are given access to Upper Hand University, Upper Hand’s on-demand, course-based learning platform. Here, admin users can dive into all of Upper Hand’s features in order to successfully launch their Upper Hand software.

Additionally, we offer a robust Help Center to dive into specific questions. Email, chat, and phone support are also available to both the business as well as their clients.

Is there a mobile app for my business? Is it included?

Yes! The Upper Hand mobile app is free to download for both the sports business and its clients. Upon logging in with your credentials, you’ll be directed to the specific business, where admins can manage all aspects of their business, and clients can book, and take action via their client profile.

If you’re interested in a white-labeled app experience, our Advanced Plan offers this feature.

P.S. There are not separate apps for clients and admins. All you need to download is the Upper Hand app in the App Store!
