BirdieBackers

For Golfers

Get paid for the work
you'd do anyway.

Most golfers outside the PGA Tour see little support for the cost of a season. Your followers, family, hometown, former coaches, teammates, and alumni can back you directly at $10, $25, or $50 a month — not for the highlight reel, but for the training, travel, and behind-the-scenes version of your season that doesn't show up on your public feed. You keep 91% — after payment processing, that's about $21.72 of a $25 subscription, direct to your bank.

What you commit to

Real deliverables. Verified monthly.

Every tier comes with a minimum set of deliverables every golfer on the platform commits to — the same baseline for everyone, so supporters know exactly what they're backing. Figure two to three hours a month.

Birdie · $10/mo

  • At least 4 pieces of supporter-only content per month — the golfer's choice of format
  • A real, closer-than-public look you won't get on the golfer's public feed
  • Recognition on the golfer's supporter wall
  • Push notifications when the golfer posts

Eagle · $25/mo

  • Everything in Birdie
  • More frequent, closer content from the golfer
  • One group hangout each quarter (a Q&A or small-group video) so you can interact
  • Access to the golfer's supporter group chat

Captain · $50/mo

  • Everything in Eagle
  • A personalized welcome video from the golfer within ~30 days of subscribing
  • A personalized birthday video from the golfer each year
  • Early access to new content
  • Captain badge on the supporter wall, chat, and comments
Each month you mark deliverables complete and an admin verifies before payouts release. Miss a month and the payout is held, not lost — catch up and it releases. Leave it uncured for 60 days and your supporters are refunded for that period.

What we handle

Stripe KYC, payouts, 1099s, compliance.

Identity verification through Stripe Express. Direct bank deposits on a monthly schedule. 1099-NEC forms at year end. For amateur and collegiate golfers: NCAA/NAIA NIL compliance checks and USGA amateur-status guardrails, with disclosure documentation generated automatically. We do the paperwork so you don't.

What we do for you

We work the business side.

Most golfers never earn anything from an audience that would gladly pay attention, and it usually isn't because the audience isn't there. It's because asking people for money is uncomfortable and marketing yourself is a job nobody trained you for. So we do that part.

Your graphics

We design the cards and posts you share, so what goes out looks like something worth backing rather than a screenshot of a link.

Your outreach

We write the messages. You don't have to work out how to ask, or send the same awkward text forty times.

Your people

We help find who's most likely to back you — followers, teammates, your old club and high school, your hometown. Golf Ambassadors at your school do the legwork on the ground.

Your part is the content and a few shares. The rest is ours.

Somewhere you can post

Moderated for positivity.

Supporter spaces are moderated. You can post after a rough round without dealing with trolls — comments are positive-only by design, and anyone who can't manage that doesn't get to stay. It's the difference between another feed to manage and somewhere you actually want to show up.

Before you ask

Free, non-exclusive, every level.

  • Free to join. No cost to sign up, ever. We only make money when you do.
  • Non-exclusive. Keep every other deal, sponsor, and platform you're part of.
  • Open to every tour and every level. You don't need to be exempt on a tour, and you don't need a big following — most of this is family, hometown, and teammates, not strangers.
