Why Charity Golf Outings Choose Golfund

More Money. More Hands.
Bigger Payoff

Three reasons cashless makes cents for your charity golf outing.

Raise More Per Transaction

Cash pricing gets capped by round bill amounts — $20 for two mulligans because that's one easy bill to collect, not what they're actually worth. Remove the cash constraint, and pricing can finally reflect what golfers would pay.

Every Volunteer Collects

A cash box means one line, no matter how many volunteers showed up to help. With Golfund, any team member's iPhone is its own checkout: registration, the course, and the auction table, all running at once.

1 cash box vs. as many iPhones as you have volunteers

Small Fee. Bigger Payoff.

Cash has zero fee, that’s true. Stripe charges 2.7% + 15¢ per Tap to Pay transaction. Golfund’s optional 3% platform fee is paid by the buyer, not your charity. The Pricing section covers it in detail. Here’s what that looks like across a 120-golfer outing selling mulligans the cashless way, one tap per golfer:

Pricing for Charity Golf Outings

More for the cause,
less for the overhead.

No monthly fees. No equipment to buy. No contracts. Just standard credit card processing for your charity golf outing, plus an optional fee to keep Golfund free.

Required · Set by Stripe

Card Processing Fee

This is the standard cost of accepting a credit or debit card, charged by Stripe, not Golfund, and deducted from your charity’s own Stripe payouts. Tap to Pay is the in-person rate you’ll pay at the course; manual card entry and sponsor payment links use Stripe’s online rate.

Tap to Pay on iPhone (in person)
2.7% + 15¢
Manual card entry & payment links
2.9% + 30¢

Charged on every transaction, whether or not the buyer accepts the platform fee below. Stripe offers approved 501(c)(3)s a discounted online rate (2.2% + 30¢), requested from Stripe directly, for online card payments only; Stripe publishes no nonprofit rate for Tap to Pay.

Optional · Paid by the Buyer

Platform Fee

A small, optional contribution offered to the person paying, not your organization, to help keep Golfund free for charities. It can be declined with one tap.

Added on top, only if accepted
3%

If the buyer accepts it, the 3% is added to their total. It never comes out of your amount. If they decline, Golfund takes nothing. The one exception is manual card entry, which always includes the 3%. Stripe’s processing fee applies either way.
