Registration, payments and live scoring—all connected in one simple platform
Create your events freePlayThru brings registration, payments and scoring together so you can stop managing the chaos and start enjoying your event.
“By far the best software I’ve found. This is our 3rd year with this small tournament and I always struggle to find something that works well. I love the fact that I don’t have to try and get everyone to download a new app.”
PlayThru's Outing Organizer will walk you through setting up your event in three steps:
From there, share the provided short link or QR code with your golfers.
Nobody wants to start a golf outing by downloading an app, creating an account or figuring out new software.
With PlayThru, they don't have to. They simply:
That's it.
From QR code to scorecard in less than 5 seconds.
No apps to download. No accounts to create. Just golf.
Look Daddy! I can did it!
Publish a professional-looking event registration page in minutes—No developer required.
From there, manage every registration in one list, track who's paid, and add golfers directly to the scorecard with one click.
No duplicate entry. No copy and paste.
PlayThru takes the tedious parts of running a golf event off your plate.
Instead, give your golfers a modern event experience with live competition, instant results and a leaderboard they check all day long.
You look like a pro. Your golfers have more fun. And your outing runs smoother.
“PlayThru leaderboard was better than expected. With little explanation all the groups inputted scores without any issues. Look forward to using it again and taking advantage of all the options.”
“It's easy to register prior to playing, and to obtain your electronic score card, and you don't have to download any apps.”
“WOW! Fun Product. We are the Forty Plus Golf Assoc in N.E. Fla. We play twice a month and look forward to using PlayThru scoring platform each tournament.”
“Such an easy to use scorecard that helped us run our charity golf tournament and raise more funds while showing appreciation to our donors and keeping the event running smoothly.”
“I have used many apps for my annual GoodGameGolf Charity Tournaments and I have never had one with so much detail and options. And for free is incredible!”
“This has been the best addition to my golf outings this year.. Even on a Sunday morning when most customer service is impossible to reach, my email asking for help was answered in MINUTES. I hope to get more familiar with the app for next year and use even more of the features. Thank you for the help.”

Create your event, build a registration page, manage your golfers and use PlayThru's mobile scorecard and live leaderboard at no cost.
Want premium scoring features? You can purchase them individually.
Or, when your event reaches 10 paid registrations through PlayThru, every premium feature automatically unlocks for your event at no additional cost.
PlayThru collects a 2% fee to process registrations, which you can cover or have your registrants cover.
More about PricingNo. That's one of the things golfers love most about PlayThru.
They simply open your event link or scan a QR code. Everything works thru their phone's browser.
Yes. Without paying anything, you can create unlimited events, add unlimited golfers, use all standard scoring formats (e.g., stroke play, stableford, match play, two- and four-person best ball), create a registration page, and get email support.
There are specific features we charge for, including skins, multi-format scoring, multi-round scoring, hole sponsor logos, and custom scorecard features. Activating most of these will hopefully generate money for you, covering the cost.
All that said, if you use PlayThru's registration page, connect your bank via Stripe, and get 10 paid registrations through that connection, all the paid upgrade features unlock automatically. PlayThru charges a 2% fee on paid registrations (Stripe also charges a fee as well), which you can choose to cover or add to the cost of the registration your attendees pay.
Long story short, with 10 paid registrations, PlayThru can be fully free to you.
Total transparency, we want you using PlayThru as often as possible with as many groups as possible, which is why it's mostly free. The scorecard is our best marketing tool. A golfer playing in one outing may also run their own outing.
PlayThru was designed to be ridiculously simple to use, both when setting up an event and using the scorecard. In fact, we've avoided adding features and formats because it would complicate the set up process for people running basic golf outings and tournaments.
You can create your first scorecard in about three minutes, and the Outing Organizer walks you thru the setup, step by step.
No. PlayThru is fundamentally a live scoring platform. We added registration as a feature to simplify organizing your outing. But, you don't have to use the registration page if you don't need it.
To use the scorecard, you can manually enter in your golfer names or import them from a CSV file. Those golfers get added directly to the scorecard.
We have you covered. When adding registration options to your page, you select a type (e.g., Single Golfer, Foursome, Non-Golfer, Sponsor, etc.). PlayThru inherently knows which registrations are golfers and which are not. It then only allows you to add "golfer" registrations to the scorecard.
You can also choose to add registrants to the scorecard individually, as a team (in the case of a scramble), or add golfers to an existing team.
Generally, golf relies on the honor system, but when money and glory are on the line and you can see others' scores, people may be inclined to bend the rules.
We've added two features to help here. The first is you have the option to toggle off access the leaderboard during the round. The only time a golfer will be able to see the leaderboard is after they've submitted their final scorecard. I'm not a huge fan of this feature because part of the fun of live scoring is seeing others' scores, but you have that option.
The second feature is a Master Scorecard. You as the organizer will have access to a master scorecard, which enables you to open and edit any other golfer's scorecard. So, if you catch someone cheating, you can correct (or penalize) their scorecard.
Bring your registration, payments and scoring together in one simple platform—and run the kind of golf outing people want to come back to next year.
