Manual access doesn't scale for busy courts
Managing access to pickleball courts can quickly become inefficient:
Manually sharing codes with players before each session
Players arriving early or staying late
Codes being reused or shared
Staff needing to open gates or doors throughout the day
Difficulty managing multiple courts and bookings
For growing facilities, this does not scale.
Automate access tied to every reservation
With Seam, you can automate access to your pickleball facility. Seam integrates with your existing booking system and turns reservations into automated access control.
When a reservation is created, Seam can:
When a reservation is created, Seam can:
Generate a unique access code for each booking
Activate it only during the reserved time
Revoke it automatically after the session ends
This allows you to run your facility with minimal manual intervention.
How it works
This works with your existing booking system—no need to change your workflow.
01
Player books a court
A player books a court through your booking system.
02
Booking is sent to Seam
Your system forwards the reservation to Seam via API call or webhook.
03
Seam automates access
Seam creates time-based access for the facility automatically for the duration of the reservation.
Real-world use cases
Practical operational workflows Seam powers for pickleball clubs and sports facility operators.
Unmanned facilities
Players access courts independently using a code—no staff onsite.
Time-based entry
Access is valid only during the reservation window—no earlier, no later.
Multi-court management
Control access across several courts or zones with different schedules.
High booking volume
Automate dozens of sessions per day across courts without manual work.
Staff and maintenance access
Create temporary codes for staff, vendors, or cleaning—revocable at any time.
Optional real-time control
In addition to automation, you can control access in real time.
Add an "Unlock" button in your admin tools
Allow staff to remotely open gates or doors
Provide fallback access when needed
This is useful for hybrid setups combining automation and manual control.
Keep your existing tools
Seam connects your booking system to your physical access infrastructure, acting as the automation layer between reservations and devices.
