THE FINE PRINT, IN PLAIN ENGLISH
Before you start.
Does every golfer pay?
No. Players can join, score, and follow the round for free.
What happens after the free month?
Your selected plan renews automatically unless you cancel before the trial ends.
Can I cancel?
Yes. Cancel anytime through Stripe billing on the web or your App Store subscription settings.
Do you take a cut of wagers?
No. Golf Is Hard tracks balances and payouts but does not take a percentage of golf wagers.
Does Golf Is Hard sync with GHIN?
Not currently. Enter each golfer's official Handicap Index and Golf Is Hard will handle handicap-aware group scoring, but it does not pull indexes from or post scores to GHIN. If your group needs direct GHIN sync, email login@golfishard.app.
