  3. Allow player payment through no-fee software like Venmo, PayPal, or Zelle.

    When payment is accepted through the app the fees can add up fast. For our weekly pick up game of just 10 players we pay $14.70 in fees a week. When you add in the $9/month for pro that comes to $67.80 a month. There should be a way for players to pay using the numerous no-fee payment services out there like Venmo, PayPal, or Zelle.

  8. Automatically Accept Waitlisted Players Once Invited

    Currently, Spares can join the waitlist before they are invited. The auto-waitlist feature only works if the team is at capacity and someone drops. I would like spares who joined the waitlist to be "auto accepted" once we reach the automatic spare invite setting date. The way it works now, I'll have a spare say they are available 6 days before the game, that places them on the waitlist. Then invites go out 5 days before, and it's first come first click so that spare who checked in early is "skipped". I have to send out a "how BenchApp works" email multiple times each season to the people on the spare list explaining that checking in early is pointless. So then I have players asking if we can change the time of the auto-invite because people who are on their phone at that time get preferential treatment.

  9. Add and remove players to chat

    would be nice to have the ability to add and remove players from chats. That way when a player steps up to help run the team we don’t have to make a new chat every time

  11. Pencil in subs that aren’t on the roster or sub list

    When making lines add an option to write in a sub that isn’t on the roster or spares list. Doesn’t have to be just making lines just a place to pencil them in then put them on a line.

  12. Automating Invites to WAITLIST spares not entire spare list

    We have 20 roster players and 2 goalies who sign in or out weekly for our scrimmage hockey games. Interested spares join a WAITLIST. I want to automate and extend invites to WAITLIST players only not the entire spare player list the day before the game to fill vacancies, ensuring a full roster of 20+2 without manually inviting each player. This guarantees fairness in participation opportunities each week and avoid inviting our extended spare list.

  13. Calendar Sync Failure

    I am attempting to sync the team calendar with the league calendar for us using http://tmsdln.com/376tg I select sync league schedule, paste the URL, and click Start Syncing. It immediately shows a snackbar with this: Failed to load calendar. Please check the URL. I use the same URL with Google Calendar, and it works flawlessly.
