Pasalo Terms
Last updated November 15, 2026 · version 2026-10-25.1
1. What Pasalo is
Pasalo lets a player who can no longer use a confirmed court booking or a paid open-play seat pass it to another player. It is the only way a booking or a seat leaves your hands. These terms add to the Terms of Service and apply every time you list, hand off, accept or buy.
2. Two ways to pass a slot on
- Hand-off. You name a player by their OpenCourt handle. Nothing moves until they accept. There is no charge. You can take a hand-off back any time before they accept.
- Sale. Your slot is listed for the court or host price you paid for it, with any add-ons that go with it. The fees you paid are not part of it. Anyone can buy it. The buyer pays OpenCourt through the normal checkout. The moment the payment goes through, the slot moves to the buyer and you are paid. You can take a sale down any time before someone pays.
3. Money
- The price is fixed. A sale is always at the court or host price the seller paid, with any add-ons that go with it. No mark-up and no discount. The buyer pays OpenCourt a service fee on top, a share of the whole price (3.5% unless OpenCourt changes it), shown as its own line at checkout.
- The buyer pays OpenCourt, never the seller. The buyer pays the price, the service fee and one processing fee. The processing fee covers their payment method, the transfer to the seller when the seller takes cash, and the tax our payment provider withholds. Credits are used first.
- The seller is paid by OpenCourt. At listing time the seller chooses OpenCourt credits, which arrive the moment the sale settles, or cash, sent at once to the GCash, Maya or bank account they give us. That choice is final for that listing.
- The original fees stay paid. The service fee and the processing fee from the first purchase are not returned to the seller. The court or host keeps what they were paid.
- Never send money to another player for a Pasalo. A payment made outside OpenCourt is not a Pasalo and we cannot act on it.
4. The rules
- Only your own slot. Only a confirmed booking you paid for, or a paid seat you hold, can be passed on. The slot is taken from your records, never typed in.
- One listing per slot. A slot can be listed once at a time. A buyer checking out holds the listing for 15 minutes.
- Cut-off. A sale closes 30 minutes before the slot starts. A hand-off that is not accepted by the start expires.
- A slot that is gone closes its listing. If the court cancels the booking or the host cancels the session, the listing is closed and the normal refund rules apply to whoever holds the slot.
- Pasalo of a Pasalo is allowed under the same rules.
5. What we record
We store who listed, who accepted or bought, the payment, where the seller chose to be paid, and the time of every step. Listings made under the earlier off-platform handshake stay on record with their chat and outcome.
