Plan your move from LeagueApps

Straight answers.

LeagueApps does not publish its prices. Its pricing page says it takes a percentage of each online payment, charges a one-time setup fee, and sells add-ons such as a custom website each year (leagueapps.com/pricing). Every Team Scout plan and fee is on our pricing page. Community is free. Plans with registration start at $29 a month paid annually plus a small platform fee on what you collect and record, and card processing passes through at cost.

Yes. Send us whatever your LeagueApps account exports: rosters, registrants and payment history. We map every column. Rosters import into Team Scout, and families land in household accounts with one statement. Open balances finish where they are, and we check every one against your export before cutover.

No. LeagueApps says its Play app never shows ads, and Team Scout has no ads on any plan either. The difference is what is in the app: Team Scout adds volunteer shifts, gate tickets, sponsorships, program ad sales and player fundraising to the registration and messaging you already use.

LeagueApps' journal-entry reports break each deposit into its transactions, for export to your accounting software. In Team Scout every dollar posts to a double-entry ledger inside the product. A deposit opens into the payments inside it, a refund is credited back to the charge it came from, and each deposit downloads as QuickBooks-ready journal lines. See the financial reports.
