PaQueueKa

PaQueueKa takes the clipboard, the whiteboard, and the "who's next?" arguments out of badminton and pickleball night. The host creates a session, players join by scanning a code — no account, no sign-up — and the app handles the rest: building fair matches, rotating the queue, and keeping score. HOST A SESSION IN SECONDS • Pick singles or doubles and set how many courts are running. • Share a 6-character code or a QR code. Players join from their own phones. • No login for anyone. Just a name, a skill level, and an emoji. • Optional: connect a Google or Apple account so your profile follows you to a new phone. SMART, FAIR MATCHMAKING • Players are matched by skill tier, so games stay competitive. • Teams are balanced automatically using an adjusted win rate that doesn't punish newcomers. • Recently-paired players aren't stuck together — partners get mixed up. • After each match, players rotate to the back of the queue so everyone gets court time. LIVE COURT CONTROL • See every court, who's playing, and who's up next at a glance. • Start the next match with one tap. Record the score. The queue updates itself. • Edit a lineup mid-match, fix a player's skill tier, or remove someone on the fly. • Best-of-3 scoring supported when you want it. RANKINGS & HISTORY • Live, in-session rankings update as results come in. • Every past session keeps its final standings and full match history. • Players get a shareable recap card at the end of the night. SPLIT THE COURT FEES, FAIRLY • Set the total or a per-match fee. The app divides it up. • Split evenly, by matches played, or equally among everyone who played. • Mark who's paid with a tap. Apply per-player discounts when you need to. EARN BADGES • Milestone badges for matches played, wins, and sessions — Bronze to Diamond. • A personal profile with your stats, play time, and the people you've played most. DO MORE — OPTIONAL UPGRADES Hosting a session and joining one are always free. Two optional upgrades add more if you want them: Player Plus — for the regular player: • Personal performance analytics and insights. • Pro Identity cosmetics: an animated avatar frame, exclusive avatars, a name color, and a custom tagline. • Extra reveals on your end-of-session recap card. Pro Host — for the people who run the night (includes everything in Player Plus): • Create your own club with a crest and members. • Persistent club rankings across every session. • Quick-start session templates so you're set up in one tap. • A saved guest roster — regulars carry over night to night. • A club ledger that tracks who owes what across sessions. • Club events with RSVPs, and co-admins who can run sessions with you. Player Plus is a one-time purchase. Pro Host is a subscription (details below). Already bought Pro Host or Player Plus before? You keep it, free, forever. Nothing you already paid for becomes a subscription. WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW • Creating, joining, and ending a session needs an internet connection; in-session actions like recording a result keep working if your signal drops and sync when you're back. • No ads. No third-party trackers. No account required to play — connecting one is optional, and only to keep your profile. Got a court full of people and a list of names? Let PaQueueKa run the queue. SUBSCRIPTION DETAILS PaQueueKa Pro Host is an auto-renewable subscription, available as 1 month (₱199), 3 months (₱499), 6 months (₱799) or 12 months (₱1,490); prices may vary by region. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel any time in your App Store account settings. Terms of Use (EULA): https://paqueueka.info/terms Privacy Policy: https://paqueueka.info/privacy
