Pricing
Collect through Perch and your event is free.
Any paid event or league up to 120 golfers runs free when golfers register by card through Perch, plus standard card processing. Golfers pay a flat $4 a registration, already included in the price they see. Plus and Pro add the tools that fill your field, sell your sponsors and run your club.

New hosts: your first event gets every Plus tool free, up to 120 golfers. See everything in each plan
The $4 fee, in the price.
On paid events, a flat $4 a registration on every plan, never more than 5% of the entry. It is part of the price golfers see, so a $150 entry shows as $154. You can absorb it instead. Nothing on donations, pots or prize money, and a refund returns it. On auctions, sponsorships and invoices it comes out of your payout, so the buyer pays face value.
Pro clubs stop paying Perch fees after $1,200 in a year. Free events are always free, and anything you don't collect through Perch is never charged. You set the golfer-facing fee; everything above Perch's flat fee is yours. Card processing (2.9% + 30¢ a payment) comes out of your payout, as it does on any platform.
Our guarantee. If Perch can’t score your event, that month of your host plan is on us.
Ask within 30 days of the event and we refund it.
