Here's your sign to ditch the spreadsheet.

Pinli is a golf tournament management solution that helps you run your tournament from start to finish, handling registration, sponsorships, payments, live scoring, and much more.

Our mission is to simplify and enhance the experience of organizing and running charity golf tournaments; freeing you from the mundane tasks and letting you focus on what truly matters: your cause.

Sponsorships

Your sponsors are first class citizens

We understand that sponsors are your key to funding and enhancing your guests' tournament experience. Pinli makes it easy to manage sponsorship tiers and make the process of setting up, signing up and managing sponsors seamless for both you and them.

  • Your own tiers — names, pricing, descriptions, and inventory caps
  • Tiers can include team slots, and sponsors fill them at sign-up
  • Proper advertising tools to promote your sponsors effectively

Website Tooling

Already have a website?
Keep it... or let us build you one.

Most platforms want you to move your tournament fully onto their site. Our platform is flexible and works both with the site you already have or with a new one we can publish for you at no additional cost.

  • Lots of design options that are flexible and customizable, yet simple to use
  • Copy and paste widgets that integrate seamlessly with your existing site

How it works

Most organizers are up and running in under five minutes.

1. Set up

Create your tournament

Set your format, course, dates, entry fee, and team size. Add sponsor levels if you have them.

2. Open

Open registration

Publish your tournament website or embed the registration widget. Teams and sponsors sign up on their own.

3. Run

Run your event

Check in players, track live scores, share the leaderboard, and print your start sheet.

Pricing

Simple. One flat fee.

You pay the equivalent of one team's entry fee to run your whole tournament on Pinli. No per-player charges, no feature gates, no surprise line items.

Per tournament

1× team fee

Whatever you charge per team. $299 minimum.

Straight answer

Built for one tournament a year, not fifty

Pinli is deliberately narrow. Here's where it fits and where it doesn't, so you can find out now instead of three screens into a signup.

A good fit if

  • You run a single charity or fundraiser tournament — one big event a year
  • Simple tournament formats: 4-man scrambles, best ball
  • Sponsorships matter as much as entry fees
  • You'd rather run your tournament than wonder if your spreadsheet is up to date

Look elsewhere if

  • You run weekly leagues or a club championship — you want club management software, not this
  • You have very complex scoring needs. We have scrambles and best ball, but other formats are on our roadmap for now

Why Pinli exists

It started with one tournament

A template website, a chaotic check-in table, and thirty-six teams nobody could keep track of. Pinli was built for that tournament — and for every charity event run by volunteers who'd rather be out on the course than buried in a spreadsheet.
