What they do that we do not
This is the section most comparison pages leave out, which is why most comparison pages are useless. If any of the following matters to you, they are the better choice and you should stop reading here.
Self-registration. Letting twenty people add themselves from a link before they arrive is genuinely better than one person typing twenty names, and we do not have it.
- Single elimination, double elimination and round robin
- Open registration by shared link, with QR codes for spectators
- Live standings and automatic notifications
- Calendar integration
- Full league seasons
What we do that they do not
- The three-strikes format
- The pot and the payout
- A TV display
- Offline play
Which to pick
Pick 3 Strikes if your format is a rotation, or you need the money handled.

How we checked
Every claim on this page comes from TourneyMaker's own public material, read on 2026-10-20 and linked here. Where their material does not say something, we have recorded it as unknown rather than assuming it is absent. If anything here is out of date, tell us and we will fix it — we would rather be correct than flattering.
