# Bill Splitting with a Coach

### Clubs on Court+ Pricing

If a Customer books a private Reservation and adds a Coach for a lesson, the Coach rate CAN BE SPLIT between all Customers attending the Reservation. If the Reservation holder wants to invite their friends to the private lessons, it’s important that the Reservation holder selects the correct Group size of players who will take the private lesson with the Coach.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**It is extremely important for the Customer to select the correct group size** because a Coach can be paid different amounts when different quantities of players are taking a private lesson. If the Customer does not select the proper quantity of players, the Coach might be under or overpaid by the Customer.
{% endhint %}

When the correct quantity of players is picked, the Reservation holder will invite their friends to the private lesson with a “split the bill” link, or a link that will allow their friend to “join for free,” meaning the Reservation holder will cover their friend’s portion of the bill

### Clubs on Spot+ Pricing

If a Customer books a private Reservation and adds a Coach for a lesson, the Coach rate CANNOT BE SPLIT between the Reservation holder and the other Customers attending the Reservation lesson. Instead, the Reservation holder is on the hook for the total cost of the Coach rate. The reason why the cost cannot be split is because with Spot+ pricing:

* The Reservation Holder is on the hook during the booking flow ONLY for their spot
* Then the Reservation Holder invites their friends to join with a Paid or Free invitation link
  * The Paid invitation link means the invitee will pay for their spot
  * The Free invitation link means the invitee will have their spot covered by the Reservation Holder

The system does does not know how many Customers will join the private Reservation, and thus does not know how to accurately split the Coach rate.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.podplay.app/coaches/manage-coach-tiers/coach-payments-and-payouts/bill-splitting-with-a-coach.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
