The bigger cost is usually payment processing: Jersey Watch publishes 3.5% + $1 per transaction and SportsEngine HQ 3.25% + $1.50. LeagueApps, PlayMetrics, TeamLinkt and TeamSnap (for clubs) do not publish their rates. Widdo adds a 0% platform fee on dues.

Calculate your own monthly cost
Percentages hide in payout statements. Put in your players, your dues and the rate you pay today, or load a published rate, and compare it with a flat Widdo plan.
Your current provider's rate
Use the percentage and per-payment amount on your last payout statement or a written quote. Many providers do not publish them.
The difference shows up once both sides have numbers.
Estimate only, per month. It counts fees whoever pays them: the club, or families when the fee is passed on. It does not include add-ons, setup fees, refunds or negotiated rates. In Widdo, card and ACH payments (US clubs) go straight to the club's own Stripe account; Stripe's fee is paid by the club and Widdo takes 0%.
One agent. Every module. Plans differ by player capacity, not by features.
Worked example: one season of dues
Illustration only. A club collects 1,000 online payments of $100 in a season ($100,000), and the club absorbs the processing fee instead of passing it to families.
| Software | Published processing rate | Processing on $100,000 |
|---|---|---|
| Jersey Watch | 3.5% + $1 per transaction | $4,500 |
| SportsEngine HQ | 3.25% + $1.50 (preferred rate) | $4,750 |
| SportsEngine Motion | 1% technology fee + 2.9% + $0.30 | $4,200 |
| LeagueApps, PlayMetrics, TeamLinkt, TeamSnap (clubs) | Not published | Ask for a quote |
| Widdo | 0% Widdo platform fee; Stripe's own processing on card/ACH, paid by the club | $0 to Widdo. Card and ACH payments carry Stripe's processing fee (published US rate: 2.9% + 30¢ per card payment, 0.8% capped at $5 for ACH), paid to Stripe by the club; Zelle, transfer and cash carry no Widdo fee. |
Widdo's 0% applies to every payment: card and ACH payments go straight to the club's own Stripe account, so the only processing fee is Stripe's, and families can still pay by Zelle, bank transfer or cash with a receipt.
Add the subscription to the processing to get the season total. Widdo's subscription for twelve months is $1,188 (Starter), $2,988 (Pro), $5,988 (Enterprise).
Questions to ask when a price is not published
- What is the processing rate for cards and for ACH, and is there a fixed amount per transaction?
- Is there a platform or technology fee on top of processing?
- Can we pass the fee to families, and how is it shown to them?
- Is there a setup fee, an annual contract or a minimum?
- Which features are add-ons with their own price?
- What happens to fees when a payment is refunded?
Where Widdo fits
Card and ACH payments are for US clubs and go to the club's own Stripe account: the club connects its own Stripe account and pays Stripe's processing fee (Widdo takes 0%). Refunds and disputes are handled from the club's Stripe dashboard.
- Small and mid-size clubs (up to 500 players on self-serve plans) whose biggest headache is collecting monthly dues and knowing who owes.
- Clubs that want a flat monthly price and no percentage taken from dues by the software.
- Clubs that want an AI operator that answers questions from club records, prepares payment reminders and takes attendance, with approvals the club controls, by chat or by voice.
- Clubs whose staff or families prefer Spanish or Portuguese: the interface and the assistant work in English, Spanish and Portuguese, and each person picks their language.

Common questions
What is the cheapest youth sports software for collecting dues?
On published prices, TeamLinkt Core and TeamSnap for single teams start at $0, and Jersey Watch costs $348/year, but each charges a fee on online payments. Widdo costs a flat $99–$499 a month and adds a 0% platform fee on dues. The cheapest option depends on how much you collect online and who absorbs the processing fee.
Does Widdo take a percentage of payments?
No. Widdo adds a 0% platform fee. The club pays a flat monthly subscription by player capacity.
Why don't some companies publish their processing rate?
LeagueApps, PlayMetrics and TeamLinkt say their pricing depends on organization size, volume or features, and TeamSnap quotes club and league pricing. Ask each for the rate in writing and compare a full season.
Can families pay club dues by card in Widdo?
Yes, in US clubs. Once the club connects its own Stripe account, families pay by card, ACH, Apple Pay or Google Pay straight to that account. Widdo takes 0%; Stripe's processing fee is paid by the club, and the club can turn online payments off at any time. Zelle, Venmo, bank transfer and cash keep working with receipts the club approves.
