Golf is better
with a bit
in the pot.

Run the side bets, track the round live, and relive it in a cinematic recap. The golf app built for the foursome, the bet and the banter — not the solo swing coach.

The wedge · "Bits"

Settle the bets without the argument.

Every group has a game inside the game — the snake, sandies, nearest-the-pin, a few bucks a hole. Everyone plays them. Nobody tracks them properly. In The Pot runs your side bets natively, hole by hole, in a running ledger called The Pot.

  • ✓ Snake, sandies, nearest-the-pin, longest drive & custom wagers
  • ✓ Auto-tracked as you score — the 3-putt snake lands on its own
  • ✓ A live tally of exactly who owes who
  • ✓ No more paper, mental maths, or car-park disputes

Unashamedly Australian

Good questions

FAQ

Is In The Pot free? +

Yes — you can set up and play your rounds for free. Some premium features (like extended round history and advanced recaps) may be offered via subscription down the track, but the core round experience is free to play.

Do all my mates need the app? +

To score live in the same round, yes — everyone in the group plays from their own phone or watch. But mates can also spectate a round live or on replay, and open your shareable recap, without playing themselves. That's often how people discover the app.

Is real money involved in the bets? +

No. In The Pot tracks your friendly side bets so you know who owes who — it's a scoreboard for the wagers you already make with your mates. No money moves through the app; you settle up between yourselves however you always have.

Does it work on Apple Watch? +

Yes. You can score, check GPS distances and mark your shots straight from your wrist, so your phone can stay in the bag while you play.

Which handicap system does it use? +

On Australian courses it uses the Golf Australia Daily Handicap calculation, and it handles mixed handicaps across your group automatically. Other regions use the appropriate course-handicap calculation.

Is it on Android? +

In The Pot is on iPhone and Apple Watch to start. Register your interest and we'll let you know as we expand.
