No Per-User Fees. No Feature Tiers. Pay for the Workforce You Run.
Three ways to run your sports event workforce. Every customer gets the full platform, the difference is how much work you want on your plate. A setup fee gets you live. After that, you only pay when an event is actually running.

Same platform. Same features. The only thing that changes is how much of the staffing work lives with you versus our team.
Self-Service
You run the workforce. You handle 1099s. We give you the platform, the SMS layer, and Teddy.
- Full event setup & publishing
- Stipend Marketplace access
- Staff scheduling & assignments
- Two-way SMS + Messaging Hub
- Reliability & performance data
- Reporting dashboards
- You manage 1099 payments
Self-Service + Payroll
You run the workforce. Our platform takes care of the payments. Direct deposit, W-9 collection, year-end 1099s; handled.

- Auto-charge stipend budgets
- Direct deposit to staff in 48 hours once approved
- W-9 collection built in
- Year-end 1099s — eFile or hardcopy

Full Service
Our recruiting account managers handle staffing end-to-end. You approve the work. We do the rest.

- Recruiting account manager
- Staff sourcing & outreach

- Day-of communication oversight
- Onboarding & compliance support
Three Components.
No Subscriptions.
Your total cost is built from three simple parts. You only pay when you're running an event. There are no monthly subscriptions, no per-seat fees, and no annual contracts to lock you in.
Workforce Setup
One-time fee to configure your account, onboard your team, and launch your first event in the platform.
- Event & staff configuration
- Workflow setup
- Team onboarding & training
- Support for your first event
Workforce Usage
Pricing scales with the number of staff working your event — not the number of users in the platform.
- Self-Service: confirmed assignments
- + Payroll: confirmed assignments
- Full Service: staff who check in & work
Payments & 1099s
If you're using us to run payroll, this covers staff payouts, W-9 collection, 1099 generation, and compliance.
- Direct deposit to staff
- W-9 collection
- Year-end 1099 distribution
- Tax compliance
Replace the Stack.
Most tournaments today are run on a tangle of disconnected tools. Scheduling apps, spreadsheets, payroll providers, and hundreds of manual group texts. We replace all of it with one, integrated platform built for sports.
Tourney Direct
Sports event staffing software with Teddy, your AI assistant who works over the SMS layer your staff already use, plus the payment engine that gets your people paid in 48 hours post approval.
- One AI agent recruiting, reminding, and answering staff — by text
- One place to schedule, assign, and message your whole roster
- One payment engine handling W-9s, payouts, and year-end 1099s
- One source of truth for every staff record and check-in
Pricing Q&A
Every event is different. The number of staff, the service level, whether you're using us to run payroll — these are the things that move the price up or down. Rather than publishing numbers that don't apply to your event, a 30-minute call gets you a real quote based on your actual workforce. No pressure, no obligation. Just a number you can plan around.
Event-based pricing — not per-user, not per-feature, not per-seat. Your cost depends on:
- The number of staff working your event
- Which service level you choose (Self-Service, +Payroll, or Full Service)
- Whether you're using us to handle payments
No long-term contracts. No subscriptions. You pay when you run an event.
Yes. Every customer gets the full platform — staffing tools, marketplace access, scheduling, assignments, communication tools, Teddy, the Messaging Hub, all of it. The only thing that changes between tiers is how much support you want from our team.
You'll see two charges:
- Upfront setup fee — one-time, when you sign up
- Workforce usage fee — invoiced around the start of each event, based on your final confirmed staffing
If you're using us for payments, payment processing is handled separately as a percentage of total payments.
No problem. Your final cost is based on your confirmed staffing right before the event. You can add or remove staff in the portal as your event evolves — pricing adjusts to match what you actually run.
Because event staffing requires planning and coordination, cancellations may incur a fee based on how close to the event the cancellation happens and the workforce already committed. We're sports people too — we'll always work with you when plans change. The specifics get covered on your initial call.
If you're using us for payments, staff are paid in 48 hours after you approve payment. Funds flow via direct deposit. Credit card payments process immediately and settle in 2 business days; ACH payments process in 1–2 business days.
Anytime. Most customers start in one tier and adjust as their event volume grows. Some run Self-Service for their smaller events and Full Service for their flagship — and that's perfectly normal. Tell us what you need before each event and we'll match the service level to it.
No. The Stipend Marketplace is optional — you can bring your own staff, use our marketplace, or do both. Same with payments — you can pay staff directly outside the platform if you'd rather, though most operators find the time savings worth the processing fee.

Tell us your event size, your staff count, and how much you want to handle. We'll tell you which tier fits and what you'll pay — no pressure, no follow-up sequences if it's not a fit.
