SoftPlay Play centre management
Built for kids' play centres

Every child's playtime, to the second.

SoftPlay runs every moment of your play centre, from check-in to pick-up. Timers, breaks, extensions and overtime fees take care of themselves, and payment is taken by card in seconds. Parents don't queue, and you don't keep tallies.

  • Works offline
  • Card payments
  • 7 languages
  • Fast check-in

    Registration, package and card payment on one screen.

  • No internet needed

    Balances live on the card; the network is only for updates.

  • Right child, right hands

    Pick-up codes, photos and a blocklist for safe hand-over.

  • In seven languages

    Staff in their language, parents in the venue's.

Features

Everything a play centre does, in one app

Time left is not a clock written down and forgotten: it is recalculated every second from check-in, breaks and extensions. That's why the number on screen is always right.

  • Live time tracking

    Each child's remaining time shows on the till, the hall TV and the customer display at once, second by second. The final minutes are flagged in colour.

  • Breaks and extensions

    A toilet or snack break is one tap: the clock pauses, within the allowance you set. Extension prices come straight from your tariff.

  • Automatic overtime fees

    When time runs out, your grace period starts, then overtime is charged in blocks. No arguments: the maths is on screen.

  • Card payments

    The balance lives on the customer's card. Each charge is written to the card and read back to confirm; if anything fails, the amount is refunded to the card.

  • Safe hand-over

    Parents get a pick-up code at check-in, and the child is handed only to whoever has it. Photos, consent forms and a blocklist are one tap away.

  • Hall TV

    A screen in the hall shows each child's remaining time, large and clear. Full names are never shown: just a wristband number or a short form like "Elif K."

  • Many tills, one hall

    Run as many tills as you like in one venue. They all share one live view; a change on one till reaches the others within a second.

  • Reports

    End-of-day, cashier, campaign and hourly occupancy reports. Closing-time cash-up on a single page, and every report prints on A4.

  • Updates itself

    New versions reach your tills automatically. Even after a Windows reinstall, the licence comes back on its own while your maintenance plan is active.

How it works

From the till to pick-up in four steps

  1. 01

    Check-in

    Parent and child details are taken, a package is chosen (30 minutes, 1 hour…) and paid by card.

  2. 02

    Entry

    A wristband prints, the timer starts and the child's short name appears on the hall TV.

  3. 03

    Play

    Breaks, extensions, extra time: all one tap. Children running out of time are flagged in colour.

  4. 04

    Pick-up

    The pick-up code is checked, any overtime is charged to the card, and the session closes.

Add-ons

Pay only for what you need

The core package is the same everywhere. The add-ons below are optional, and the ones you don't buy don't even appear in your menu.

  • Camera

    The parent is photographed at check-in and shown next to the child; the photo is deleted when the session closes.

  • Wristband printer

    QR-coded wristbands with a short number, short name, entry and exit time.

  • Shoe labels

    A pair of labels per child, so shoes never get mixed up.

  • Turnstile Coming soon

    Gates open with the wristband QR code; a child who hasn't been handed over can't leave alone.

  • SMS notifications Coming soon

    Pick-up codes and time alerts go to the parent's phone. Never advertising.

Customer portal

SoftPlay customers see only their own company in the portal: installation date, venues, tills and when the maintenance plan ends. You can also open a support request and follow its progress.

  • Your venues and tills, with their versions
  • Maintenance plan end date and days remaining
  • Open a support request and read the reply in one place
  • Multiple users for your company
