Everything you need to master the TPS app

The whole app is organised into three areas, reached from the bottom navigation bar:

The home screen carries the tagline "Learn, play, become a padel legend" and gives you quick tiles to the main features, plus a live list of your upcoming booked matches — tap any to open its details.

Every match counts. Your rating sits in one of these eight tiers — from Rookie all the way to Elite:

Bronze, Silver, and Gold each split into two sub-levels — a plus (+) and a minus (−) — so players close in ability are matched even more precisely:

Some clubs offer official level certification sessions in the app. A qualified assessor checks your level in person and validates it on the platform.

• →
  What it does: confirms your level is "validated by a club" — making it reliable from day one, without needing many competitive matches first.
• →
  Where to find it: certification sessions appear as events in the Events section. Look for titles with "Level Assessment" or "Certification".
• →
  Who it's for: new players who want accurate matchmaking straight away, or anyone whose self-assessed level feels off.

When you create a match or event you can set a level range (e.g. Silver–Diamond, or 2.9–6.1). It acts as a filter for who can join:

• →
  Cancellation terms are shown before you confirm a booking — always read them.
• →
  Policies may include cancellation deadlines, partial charges for late cancellations, or full charges with no refund after a deadline.
• →
  The final decision on charges and refunds always belongs to the club.
