For nonprofits & foundations
Golf tournament software for nonprofits and foundations
A golf tournament is often a nonprofit's single largest fundraising event of the year, and the one with the most moving parts — registrations, sponsor packages, in-kind donations, volunteers, and a day-of operation that has to look effortless.
One flat cost from $250 — nothing added to your registrants' or sponsors' checkout.
What usually makes this hard
Every dollar of overhead is visible
Platforms that cost you nothing generally recover it at checkout — a fee added to each registration and sponsorship, or a tip prompt shown to your donors. One flat cost paid by you keeps that off your supporters entirely.
Sponsorship is most of the revenue
Tiered sponsor cards with a past-sponsor wall, applications routed to your admin queue, one-click PDF invoices, per-hole logo recognition on players' scorecards, and automated post-event recap PDFs for renewals.
Your board wants clean numbers
Reconcile payments individually or batch by deposit reference, mark comps and refunds for your books, and export registrations and sponsors to CSV with full sponsor attribution and payment references.

We can also help fill the field.
Tournament software helps you run an event; it does nothing to help golfers find it. Golf Sync also runs a public catalog of upcoming tournaments that players browse by state, city, and ZIP code — and listing your event is free, whether or not you host with us.

Do you support tax receipts and EIN on the event page?
Your event page displays your tax EIN, contact email, and refund policy, so registrants and sponsors have your organization's tax details in front of them at the point of giving.
Where does the money go?
Directly to your organization. Payments run through Stripe Connect and settle into your own Stripe account, so you control timing and we never hold your funds.
How much does it cost?
One flat cost, starting at $250–$300 for setup — your event's registration and sponsor website, online card payments, a sponsor tier ladder, and day-of check-in. Live mobile scoring and a big-screen leaderboard is $400; the engagement tier with push broadcasts, sponsor PDF invoices, and tiered mulligans is $750+. You set your own registration prices and keep that revenue.
Are fees added at checkout for players or sponsors?
No. There's no platform fee, service fee, or tip prompt added to what your registrants and sponsors pay. Many platforms are free to the organizer precisely because they recover their cost that way; we charge you one flat amount instead. Standard Stripe card-processing fees still apply and go to Stripe, not to us, with funds settling into your own Stripe account.
Will golfers outside our network find the event?
They can. Golf Sync also runs a public tournament catalog that players browse by state, city, and ZIP code, and listing your event there is free whether or not you host with us — so your tournament is discoverable by golfers already searching for something to play in.
