Escalation path

  1. 1
    Level 1 — Support desk
    CourtSpark Support

    Open a ticket from the Facility Support Portal or email support@courtsparkai.com. Every ticket is acknowledged inside the response window for its tier, and status changes email the club contact automatically.

  2. 2
    Level 2 — Support lead
    Named account contact

    If a P1 has no response in 30 minutes, or a P2 has no response in 4 business hours, reply to the ticket with ESCALATE in the subject line or call the support line. The ticket is re-assigned and prioritized in the staff queue.

  3. 3
    Level 3 — Operations
    operations@courtsparkai.com · 724-330-0073

    For a P1 open longer than 8 business hours or a repeat outage at the same facility within 30 days, operations takes ownership, sets a recovery plan, and provides direct updates to the club owner.

  4. 4
    Level 4 — Executive review
    info@courtsparkai.com · Attn: Partner Escalation

    For unresolved service issues after Level 3, or any dispute about service credits, a written escalation triggers an executive review with a response within 5 business days.

Who owns what

CourtSpark is the single point of contact for partner clubs — we open and track the ticket even when the root cause sits with a hardware or camera vendor. Vendor response times are set by those vendors and are outside CourtSpark's control.

CourtSpark Support

Ad scheduling, timers, content, revenue share, portal access, anything on the CourtSpark app layer.

Mon–Fri 8am–8pm ET · Emergency line 24/7 for full-screen outages

Skykit Support

Service credits

If verified ad-playback uptime at a facility falls below 99.5% in a calendar month, the club's revenue share for that month is calculated as if the screens had run at the 99.5% target. Credits are requested in writing within 30 days of the affected month and are the exclusive remedy for missed targets. Specific commercial terms in a signed partner agreement take precedence over this page.

Exclusions

  • Facility power, internet, or network outages outside CourtSpark equipment.
  • Displays, mounts, or cabling owned and maintained by the club.
  • Scheduled maintenance announced at least 48 hours in advance.
  • Third-party vendor outages (Skykit, PlaySight, ISPs) and force majeure events.
  • Issues caused by changes made to equipment or settings without notifying us.

Report an issue

Partner clubs open and track tickets in the Facility Support Portal. Emergencies should always start with a phone call.
