SeshDesk is a session management platform for activity clubs that charges 2.5% flat on paid bookings — no monthly fee. Unlike Pebble, SeshDesk supports all activity types and all age groups, includes a free listing in the Activities directory, and offers built-in funded places and grant compliance reporting.
Clubs switch from Pebble to SeshDesk because every Pebble plan carries a monthly subscription — Core at £25/month plus 3% per booking (+ VAT), or Premium at £35/month plus 2.5% per booking (+ VAT), each on a full-year commitment — while SeshDesk charges 2.5% on paid bookings only, with no subscription. Pebble is built around childcare settings and children's activities; SeshDesk supports all ages. Pebble's directory lists only its own customers' children's activities; SeshDesk's Activities directory is open and cross-platform — it lists clubs regardless of which booking software they use, across all ages, and every SeshDesk club gets a free listing. Pebble offers no grant reporting or funded-places tracking; SeshDesk includes funded places management with a configurable funder evidence export — Movement Fund, Awards for All and HAF (DfE baseline) presets you adapt to your funder's own form. Free and funded sessions cost nothing on SeshDesk.
Pebble's published plans are Core at £25/month plus 3% per booking (+ VAT) and Premium at £35/month plus 2.5% per booking (+ VAT), each on a full-year commitment, so the subscription is payable through quiet months. The platform is built around childcare settings, and there is no grant reporting or funded places management.
