Free and Premium

The match is the showroom.

On your own, free is scoring — and scoring is genuinely complete. Step into a match someone else is hosting and you get the whole app, free, for that round. The contrast is the pitch.

Premium is unlocked for every beta tester, with one exception: Ask Your Data is still with a small group while we watch what it costs. Pricing lands with the App Store release.

How the line is drawn

Three rules we don’t bend

The match

Never pay to play in someone else’s match

Join a hosted match and everything is switched on — the games, the stakes, the live sync, the settlement. Score yourself or let the host score you. The subscription is for hosting, never for playing.

Your stats

Every stat is recorded whether you pay or not

Putts, putt distance, tee club, driving accuracy, penalties — all captured from day one on the free tier. Subscribe two seasons from now and the dashboards open on rounds you already played.

Nothing is deleted

What you already made stays yours

Stop subscribing and your past game results still show, and your full round history stays exactly where it was. The analytics dashboards close and your yardage book marks and recorded shots go out of view — but nothing is erased. Resubscribe and it all comes back, on everything you’ve played.

One honest asymmetry. Shot tracking is the only thing here that isn’t retroactive. Stats are captured for free users, but shots are marked by hand — so a free player builds no shot history, and their club distances start empty on the day they subscribe rather than filling in behind them.

Ask Your Data answers plain-English questions about your rounds. It calls a paid AI service on every question, so premium includes a monthly allowance rather than being unlimited.

The free trial includes 5 Ask Your Data questions. Every question costs us real money the moment it is asked, so the trial gives you a taste rather than the full allowance, which unlocks when the subscription starts. Everything else in premium is included in the trial from day one.

Free for every beta tester.

Premium is switched on for everybody in the beta — all of it except Ask Your Data, which is with a small group of testers while we learn what it costs to run. Play a few rounds and tell us where the line belongs — it’s still moving.

Fair questions

What will it cost?

We haven’t published a price yet, and we’d rather say that plainly than put up a number we might move. Pricing lands with the App Store release. The beta is free, and everyone playing it gets plenty of warning before anything changes.

My friend won’t subscribe. Can they still play in my match?

Yes, completely. A free player in your hosted match gets every feature for that round — the games, the stakes, the live scorecard, the settlement. There is no degraded guest mode, and there’s no prompt nagging them mid-round.

If I stop subscribing, do I lose my rounds?

No. Your round history is free and stays forever, along with the game results you already earned and the marks already in your yardage book. What lapses is the ability to start new premium things — hosting a match, enabling a game, adding new yardage-book marks — not access to your own past.

Do I need to pay to see yardages?

No. Distances to the front, center, pin, and back are free for everyone and always will be. What premium adds is tracking your own shots and learning your real club distances from them.

What happens if my subscription lapses mid-round?

Nothing — the round finishes exactly as it started. Premium features are locked in when you tee off and released when you sign the card, so a renewal date can never break a round you’re standing in the middle of.
