Who pays

Every athlete on your roster has a Saturday subscription, and every athlete has one payer. The roster’s Who pays column shows which, and you can filter the roster by it. Two questions decide the picture, and they are independent of each other:
  1. Who pays for the athlete’s Saturday subscription? You, them, or your organization.
  2. Is the athlete linked to you? On your roster or not.
All combinations are valid. You can coach an athlete who pays for themselves, or cover an athlete you have not linked yet. This page is about question 1.

​
The payment modes

Mixed billing is normal. On the same roster, some athletes can be coach-paid while others self-pay. You decide per athlete.

​
Included seats come first

Your plan includes a number of athlete seats: Pro Coach 2, Head Coach 5, Business and Enterprise a fair-use ceiling. Athletes who fit within those seats are covered by your plan fee and pay $0 themselves. The free Coach plan is the exception. It lets you coach one athlete, but that athlete pays for their own Saturday subscription; the free plan funds no seats and cannot cover an athlete. Covering athletes starts at Pro Coach. Beyond your included seats you choose per athlete: cover them, which makes them a coach-paid athlete, or let them self-pay. Org-paid works the same way with the organization as the payer. It is not tied to a particular plan tier. What it needs is an organization you administer, the billing-coverage permission, and, for any athlete beyond the organization’s included seats, a paid plan on the organization itself. Ending an org-paid arrangement takes a separate permission that an org admin grants explicitly.

​
Where you set it

Coverage is decided per athlete, not in one global setting. From your roster, use an athlete’s row menu or open their billing drawer to cover them or stop covering them. Selecting several athletes gives you Cover and Uncover for the whole selection, with the cost shown before you confirm. Your own plan, the volume-discount curve, and your plan’s seat allotment live on Coach Subscription.

​
Your own subscription

On a paid plan, your plan also covers your own athlete subscription, and it never consumes one of your athlete seats. On the free Coach plan you pay for your own subscription like any athlete. If your coaching plan’s payment fails, you keep your tier for a 14-day grace window rather than losing it immediately. An athlete’s access never disappears without warning. See Take over & relinquish for how coverage changes, grace windows, and double-charge protection work.
