# Coach Rate + Court Price
There are two options when charging Customers for booking a private Lesson.
### Option 1 — Coach Rate, no court price
If option 1 is selected, there is no court booking price and the Customer pays exclusively for the Coach Rate. [The Coach Rate can be Split](/coaches/manage-coach-tiers.md#configuring-payout-and-splits) further between Coach and Club using either a **% Rate** or a **Fixed $**.
### Option 2 — Coach Rate + court price (default setting)
If option 2 is selected, the Customer pays for the court price + the Coach Rate.
The Court rate goes to the Club, and the Coach Rate (hourly) is set in the Coach Profile. [The Coach Rate can be Split](/coaches/manage-coach-tiers.md#configuring-payout-and-splits) further between Coach and Club using either a **% Rate** or a **Fixed $**.
Example with an additional split:
* A $60 Lesson where the Court costs $10 (Club receives) and the Coach costs $50, with a 20% split on the Coach Lesson
* Club revenue: $20 ($10 Court + $10 from the 20% split on the $50 Coach Lesson)
* Coach receives: $40
Example without an additional split:
* $60 Lesson where the Court costs $10 (Club receives) and the Coach costs $50, with a 0% split between Club and Coach:
* Club revenue: $10 (Court only)
* Coach receives: $50 For longer Reservations, both the Court and Coach costs scale up because rates are per hour.
In the screenshot below:
* **On the left** is Option 1, with no court price. Customers are only paying for the Coach Rate.
* **On the right** is Option 2, where Customers pay for the court price + Coach Rate.
