Frequently asked questions.

Do I need video footage or a camera setup?
+
No. Playwise works purely with publicly available results, tables and statistics. You need nothing but a browser or your phone.
Does Playwise work for my league?
+
Yes — Playwise is built for every league in Swiss amateur football: from the Promotion League down to the 5th league, plus women, youth and seniors. If you can't find your team when signing up, you can add it yourself in a minute.
How accurate are the Playwise analyses?
+
Honestly: it depends on where the numbers come from. Everything that comes out of your own club is real today: the matches you record with goals, goals conceded and substitutions, the league table (we keep it up to date), your squad and your training weeks. For the opponent, Playwise works with realistic sample data until the federation data is licensed — every analysis says so visibly. The match plan, the tactics and the training recommendations, on the other hand, are real coaching work: they come from the formation, the system of play and the match situation.
Do I have to be a football analyst to use Playwise?
+
No, not at all. Playwise is made for amateur coaches: you enter the club name and get everything prepared for you — understandable, without jargon. Training weeks, tactical recommendations and drills are ready to use right away. You need no camera setup, no video analysis and no prior knowledge — just your phone or a browser.
Can I try Playwise first?
+
Yes — both products start with seven days free. You enter a payment method when you sign up, but you only pay after the seven days. Cancel before that and it costs nothing. Playwise Coach starts at CHF 14 per month or CHF 139 a year, Playwise Player at CHF 7 per month or CHF 69 a year — both can be cancelled at any time.
What is Playwise Player?
+
Playwise Player is the personal area for players — usable entirely without a coach or a club. You get 15 new quiz questions every week, your own player card including a defending value, four tests in the lab (scanning, reaction, tracking players, decision-making), the daily readiness check-in, matchday with a rating and season statistics, a briefing before every match, 41 drills with a weekly plan and 30 trophies. Goalkeepers get their own values, drills and development path. Right in the browser, on your phone too — the app for iPhone and Android is coming soon.
How does the weekly quiz work?
+
Every Monday 15 new questions are waiting: match situations on the tactics board (which pass, where to run, offside or not), plus rules, tactics, body and mind. Most match situations are created anew each week and checked automatically against the laws of the game. After every answer you see the explanation. Your result feeds into your game IQ on the player card.
Do I need a club or a coach for Playwise Player?
+
No. You sign up on your own; club and position are optional. If your coach uses Playwise Coach, great — but it isn't required.
