Recurring support
for the golfers
who earn it.
Golfers outside the PGA Tour spread receive almost none of the support that fuels a season — entry fees, travel, coaching. BirdieBackers lets you back the golfer you actually care about on a recurring basis, and get closer to their journey than any public feed allows. Our platform fee is 8.99%; after payment processing, the rest goes to the golfer.

What we're not
Not a tip jar. Not a donation site. Not crowdfunding.
We're a marketplace. Supporters back specific golfers with recurring subscriptions in exchange for content and access the golfer commits to deliver. Golfers get the revenue and the fan relationship; we provide the rails, verification, and compliance.
Our 8.99% platform fee covers hosting, video bandwidth, customer support, compliance work, and the weekly reconciliation that keeps the books to the penny. Stripe's payment processing (2.9% + 30¢ per charge) comes off the top — that's what makes the rails run. The rest goes direct to the golfer.

The BirdieBackers journal
The real cost of chasing a PGA Tour card.
Mini-tour life isn't glamorous. Entry fees alone run $1,500–$3,000 per week. Travel, lodging, equipment, coaching — it adds up fast. Read the stories behind the golfers you're backing.

What supporters are saying
“I found Marcus before he had 100 backers. Watching his season in real time — knowing I'm part of it — is something no highlight reel can replicate.”
James T.
Denver, CO · Backer
“The quarterly hangouts are the best part. Getting to ask her about a round the same week she played it is not something you get anywhere else.”
Rachel M.
Phoenix, AZ · Eagle tier supporter
“The moment Ryan made the cut at the Korn Ferry event, my phone blew up with messages from other backers. That community feeling is real.”
