Revenue Calculator — Estimate Your Venue's Racket Rental Revenue
A typical Australian tennis or padel venue with 6 courts and 30 daily players can generate $219,000+ in annual racket rental revenue from a single Dark Pro Shops kiosk. The calculator below lets you plug in your own court count, player numbers, and rental price to see your venue-specific projections.
Kiosk hardware is a one-off purchase, quoted per venue — typically a fraction of a year’s part-time front-desk wages — so most venues recover it within the first year, often within months. Request a quote to work out your exact payback.
What You’ll Estimate
| Metric | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Daily revenue | Gross rental income per day based on your player traffic |
| Monthly revenue | Scaled-up projection across a typical month |
| Annual revenue | Full-year revenue potential |
How to Use the Calculator
- Enter your court count — how many tennis, padel, or pickleball courts does your venue have?
- Set daily players per court — a typical Australian club sees 4–8 players per court per day
- Set rental price — you set your own player price; Dark Pro Shops charges venues only a small fee per successful rental
- Adjust rental rate — what percentage of players will rent? 15–30% is typical for venues without a staffed pro shop
The calculator updates instantly as you adjust each slider. Results are gross revenue estimates — Dark Pro Shops charges no monthly fees, so nearly all revenue stays with your venue.
Key Takeaways
- Revenue scales with player count, not fixed costs — unlike a staffed pro shop, the kiosk costs the same whether 10 or 100 players rent per day
- Payback in months, not years — most venues recover the one-off hardware cost within the first year
- No monthly minimums — you pay only a small fee per successful rental, so there’s no fixed cost risk
- Five sports, one kiosk — the same machine rents tennis, padel, pickleball, squash, and badminton equipment
