El7areef is how you book five-a-side football in Egypt — without the phone calls, the deposit nobody keeps track of, and the friend who never pays you back. FIND A PITCH Browse real fields near you with photos, hourly prices and ratings. See which slots are free tonight and what each one costs before you commit to anything. BOOK IN SECONDS Pick your date, court and time, then confirm. Pay the full amount online, or pay the deposit online and settle the rest in cash at the pitch. SPLIT IT WITH THE SQUAD Game Rooms turn "who's in?" into a solved problem. Create a room, share the invite code, and every player pays their own share directly. You can see who has paid and who hasn't — no chasing people, no fronting the whole cost yourself. SHORT ON PLAYERS? Open your room to the public and let other players join, or browse open rooms and get into a game with a new crowd. KEEP YOUR WEEKLY SLOT Lock a fixed time every week with a recurring reservation, so your regular game stays yours. YOUR WALLET, IN EGP Top up with InstaPay or a mobile wallet transfer, then pay for bookings straight from your balance. Every top-up, booking, refund and penalty is listed in your transaction history. FULLY IN ARABIC AND ENGLISH Switch language any time from your profile. ```
