GotSport, from GotSoccer, is software for clubs, leagues, tournaments, governing bodies and referees. Pricing isn't published; its terms set a nonrefundable software fee per registration or team that can be charged to families and require exclusive use during the term. BackPR is free for nonprofits and never adds its own fee to what families pay.

| | BackPR | GotSport |
|---|---|---|
| Built for | Youth and community programs: camps, after-school, childcare, classes, sports, schools and churches. | Clubs, leagues and tournaments, governing bodies, referees and professional leagues. The governing bodies in its help center are soccer and futsal organizations. |
| Cost for nonprofits | $0 to BackPR: no subscription and no BackPR fees. Stripe's processing fees still apply. | No published nonprofit pricing. |
| Pricing | Nonprofits: $0. Other organizations: custom quote. | Not published; set in each organization's agreement as a per-registration fee, per-team fee, percentage of registration fees or subscription. Where no amount is agreed, its terms set $4 per program registration, $10 per league team and $20 per tournament team. Premium club tools come through a partner program for clubs that qualify. |
| Fees added to what families pay | None from BackPR. | GotSport's software fee can be charged to families at checkout; it's shown before payment and isn't refunded, even when the club refunds the registration. Clubs can also add a percentage fee to recover card costs, and GotSport's terms mention surcharge tools. |
| Payment fees | Stripe's standard processing rates. For nonprofits, BackPR adds nothing on top. | Not published. Card payments run through the organization's own merchant account with a processor GotSport authorizes, under a separate merchant agreement. |
| Contract | No long-term contract. Cancel anytime with no exit fees. | Term set in each organization's agreement. During the term, GotSport's terms bar using a competing registration, league or tournament platform; a breach can cost twice the software fee on the previous 12 months of registrations. GotSoccer can end the terms with 30 days' notice. |
| Onboarding and data import | Free, including data import. | Fees not published. Club admins can bulk-upload players from a CSV template. |
| Spanish for families | Yes. | Admins can set a program's public registration pages to Spanish, and users can choose a preferred language in their profile. The help center is also in Spanish. |

Where BackPR is different:
- **Free for nonprofits:** Nonprofits pay nothing to BackPR. GotSport sets its software fees in each agreement and publishes no nonprofit pricing.
- **No BackPR fee at checkout:** BackPR never adds its own fee to what families pay. Card processing runs at Stripe's standard rates, which you absorb or pass on. GotSport's software fee can be charged to families at checkout and isn't refunded, even when the club refunds the registration.
- **Cancel anytime:** BackPR has no long-term contract; cancel anytime. GotSport's terms bar competing registration, league or tournament software during the term, with a breach fee of twice its software fee on the previous 12 months of registrations.
- **Export your data anytime:** Export your data from BackPR anytime, for free. GotSport's terms give you 30 days after the agreement ends to ask for your data, after which it may be deleted.

What GotSport does well: GotSport connects clubs with leagues, tournaments and governing bodies: its club tools are integrated with 38 governing bodies and more than 2,500 events, so players register once. It also offers tryout invitations, scheduling, referee assigning with direct-deposit payouts and 1099 forms (GotSport Pay), a team app with digital ID cards, live streaming, ticketing, an online store and team rankings.
