How it works
From “I want to play” to GAME ON.
NearestGame sits between guest intent and hotel operations: guests make themselves discoverable, compatible people join the same activity, and the hotel decides how confirmation should happen.
MATCH FLOW
A simple lifecycle
1Guest joins
2Compatible guest joins
3Automatic or manager confirmation
4WhatsApp GAME ON
5Roster stays open until capacity
Guest side
The guest does only what matters.
The flow is intentionally short enough to use while walking past a court, sitting by the pool or deciding what to do that afternoon.
Choose the activity
Select a sport or shared experience configured by the hotel.
Pick the exact time
The board generates real sessions using the hotel’s operating window, game length and cleanup gap.
Add preferences
Choose age group, Men / Women / Mixed and Beginner / Advanced.
Join the board
Your display name appears with other compatible guests at the property.
Get GAME ON
Once confirmation happens, WhatsApp alerts can notify guests that the game is ready.
Matching logic
Guests meet inside the same game definition.
A match is not just “someone else chose tennis.” NearestGame groups guests using the hotel’s configured session plus the choices that matter to the guest.
Same hotel
Same activity
Same exact session
Same age group

Hotel side
The hotel defines the operating rules once.
The guest experience then follows those rules automatically.
◷
Operating window
Choose first start and final finish time. If closing is after midnight, NearestGame keeps the same hotel service day.
↔
Session design
Choose game duration and the cleanup or turnover gap between sessions.
♙
Capacity
Set the player count per activity so a confirmed group can keep filling until it is actually full.
✓
Confirmation
Choose automatic confirmation or manager approval for the property.
¤
Pricing
Mark each activity free or paid and show the hotel’s own pricing note.
✦
Presentation
Use the hotel’s name, logo and visual background on the guest board.
Confirmation logic
Two ways to reach GAME ON.
⚡
Automatic mode
When the minimum match is formed, NearestGame confirms it immediately and releases the notification flow. More matching guests can still join until the configured capacity is reached.
👤
Manager approval mode
Once enough compatible guests join, the Manager panel shows the match as waiting. Staff confirms it before GAME ON and WhatsApp are released.
Privacy by minimisation
Enough information to coordinate. Not a permanent social profile.

Privacy
Built for a temporary hotel interaction.
NearestGame deliberately asks for less than a traditional social or booking app because the use case is simpler: help people at the same property coordinate a shared activity.
