Welcome to TheQuickSport

Whether you are new to the platform or just want a refresher, this guide walks you through everything: joining a community, topping up your wallet, signing up for games, and understanding how refunds and waiting lists work.

Let's get you on the field.

How to Join a Community

Communities are the heart of TheQuickSport. They are groups of players who regularly organise and play games together. Browse available communities on the Communities page or use an invite link shared by a friend.

There are two types of communities: public and private. Private communities are marked with a lock icon.

Public communitiesYou can join instantly. Just open the community page and tap "Join". You are in right away.
Private communitiesYou will recognise these by the lock icon on the community card. Private communities require approval — after requesting to join, the admin will review your request. You may need to answer a few questions. Once approved, you get full access.
  1. Find a community on the Communities page or use an invite link.
  2. Open the community page and tap "Join".
  3. For private communities, fill in any required questions and wait for admin approval.
  4. Once you are a member, you will see all upcoming events and can sign up.

How to Top Up Your Wallet

Paid events are handled through your wallet balance. Before you can join a paid game, you need to have enough funds.

Topping up is quick and secure — payments are processed through Mollie, a trusted European payment provider.

Your wallet balance is used automatically when you join paid events. No need to enter payment details every time.
  1. Go to your Wallet page from the menu.
  2. Enter the amount you want to add.
  3. Choose your preferred payment method (iDEAL, credit card, etc.).
  4. Complete the payment — funds appear in your wallet immediately after confirmation.

How to Join a Free Event

Free events require no wallet balance. Just find a game you like on the All Games page and sign up.

Once enough players have joined and the minimum player threshold is reached, the game is confirmed and everyone gets notified.
  1. Browse available games on All Games or inside a community.
  2. Open an event and check the details (sport, date, location, skill level).
  3. Tap "Join" to add yourself to the player list.
  4. If the game is already full, you will be placed on the waiting list automatically.

How to Join a Paid Event

Paid events work the same way as free events, except the entrance fee is deducted from your wallet balance when you sign up. If a promocode or early bird discount is available, it is applied automatically.

Paying for a friend?You can pay for a friend to join the game. However, friend payments cannot be self-refunded — the friend is added directly to the player list and is not eligible for the waiting list.
  1. Make sure your wallet has enough balance (top up if needed).
  2. Open the paid event and review the price and details.
  3. Tap "Join" — the entrance fee is deducted from your wallet instantly.
  4. If the game is full, you are placed on the paid waiting list and your fee is reserved.

Game Confirmation: What It Means

A game becomes "confirmed" once the minimum number of players has signed up. This means the event is going ahead as planned.

Once a game is confirmed, your payment is locked in. Refunds are not processed automatically — if you need to leave a confirmed game, you must contact the admin to request a refund.

ImportantConfirmed games are not automatically refundable. You must request a refund through the game's admin. Refund amounts depend on how much time is left before the game starts (see the refund table below).

Understanding the Waiting List

When a game reaches its maximum number of players, new sign-ups are placed on the waiting list. The waiting list works on a first-come, first-served basis.

  • Waiting list position is based on sign-up order (first come, first served).
  • When a player leaves the main list, the first waiting list player is promoted.
  • For paid events, waiting list players are refunded automatically 2 hours before the game starts if they were not promoted.
  • Waiting list players always receive a 100% refund if they cancel or are not promoted.
Free eventsYou are added to the waiting list at no cost. When a spot opens up, the first person on the list is promoted and notified by email.
Paid eventsYour entrance fee is charged when you join the waiting list to reserve your spot. If a spot opens up, you are promoted automatically. If no spot opens, you receive a full 100% refund.

Refund Policy at a Glance

Refund amounts for paid events depend on whether you are on the main player list or the waiting list, and how much time is left before the game starts. For full details, see our Terms & Conditions.

RememberOnce a game is confirmed, refunds must be requested through the admin. The earlier you request, the more you get back.
Automatic refundsIf a game does not reach its minimum players and is cancelled, or you are on the waiting list and not promoted by 2 hours before the game, your refund is processed automatically to your wallet.

Quick Tips Before You Play

  • Keep your wallet topped up so you never miss a paid game.
  • Join communities in your area to discover new games and meet players.
  • Sign up early — spots fill up fast and the waiting list does not guarantee a place.
  • If your plans change, request a refund as early as possible to get the maximum amount back.
  • Check the game details carefully: sport type, skill level, location, and time.
