Bubble Soccer Rental Calculator
See how quickly a bubble soccer set pays for itself in your market.
A bubble soccer rental business is paid back once the events you run cover the cost of the set. With a 12-ball package and four events a month at a typical corporate rate, the equipment is usually paid off inside the first season. Set the three figures below to your own market and the calculator shows your payback period and first-year result.

Equipment figures are our published package prices, excluding VAT. Revenue figures are your own estimates — this is a planning tool, not a guarantee of earnings, and it excludes transport, insurance, staffing and marketing.
What this does and does not include
The investment figure is the package price for the set size you choose, and includes carry bags, a repair kit per ball and an electric pump. It does not include transport, public liability insurance, business registration, staffing or marketing — all of which vary far too much by country to estimate honestly. Treat the payback period as the point at which the equipment itself is paid off, not the point at which the business becomes profitable overall.
Questions about the numbers
What should I charge per event?
Rates vary widely by country and customer type. Corporate team-building bookings command the highest rates, birthday parties the lowest, and open public sessions sit in between. The most reliable way to set your price is to check what existing operators in your own city charge for a two-hour booking and position yourself against them.
How many events per month is realistic?
Bubble soccer demand is seasonal in most markets, peaking in spring and early autumn and dropping through winter. Operators often run more bookings than average in peak months and very few in the off season, so model an average across the whole year rather than a good month.
Does the payback period include running costs?
No. The payback period here covers the equipment only. Transport, insurance, staffing and marketing are real costs that differ enormously by country, and estimating them for you would be guesswork. Add your own running costs to get a full picture of profitability.
