Good to know
What does MatchPlanner cost?
MatchPlanner is completely free. Every feature – from team management and the tactics board to the player app – is available without restrictions and without hidden costs.
Who is MatchPlanner for?
For football coaches at every level – from grassroots volunteers to academy youth coaches. Players and parents use the player app, and club officials get their own view.
Is there an app for my phone?
MatchPlanner runs in any modern browser and can be installed on your home screen as a web app (PWA) – including push notifications for new events and reminders. No app store needed.
How do my players get into the app?
You invite players with a personal invitation or a team join link. They see their schedule, confirm or decline and manage their profile – parents can do this for their kids.
Are my tactics and data private?
Yes. Everything you create is private and only visible to your team. Your data is stored on servers in Germany, and passwords are only ever stored in encrypted (hashed) form.
Can I manage more than one team?
Yes. You can create several teams or get invited to join other teams and switch between them with one click – for example as the coach of two youth squads.
