Parbook Golf · last updated October 8, 2026
These terms cover your use of the Parbook Golf app and parbookgolf.com ("Parbook", "we"). By creating an account or using Parbook you agree to them and to our Privacy policy. If you don't agree, please don't use it.
You must be at least 13 to create an account. Keep access to your email secure; anyone with your sign-in codes can use your account. You can delete your account at any time (see Delete your account).
Some features (such as the AI caddy, spoken yardages, hole plans, practice, swing analysis, money matches and advanced stats) need Parbook Pro, a paid subscription billed monthly or yearly through the App Store, Google Play or our web checkout (Stripe). Subscriptions renew automatically at the then-current price for the same period until you cancel.
Cancelling. Bought in the app: in your App Store (Apple ID → Subscriptions) or Google Play (Payments & subscriptions) settings. Bought on the web: in the app or at parbookgolf.com/app under Me → Settings → Parbook Pro → Manage or cancel. Cancel at least 24 hours before the renewal date to avoid the next charge. You keep Pro until the end of the period you've paid for; we don't refund part periods, except where the law says otherwise. Refunds for store purchases are handled by Apple or Google under their rules.
Founding members. The first 25 accounts get Pro free for 6 months (the end date is shown in the app; it doesn't renew into a paid plan by itself). After that they can subscribe at the founder price ($2.00/month or $20/year on the web). A founder subscription keeps renewing at the founder price for as long as it stays active; if it's cancelled and lapses, a founding member can still start it again at the founder price. Prices can change; a change applies from your next renewal, and we'll tell you before it does.
Running a league needs a League pass ($35 a year, bought in the app or on the web). Joining a league is free. The League pass renews automatically every year until you cancel. Cancel the same way as Pro: in your App Store or Google Play subscription settings for a store purchase, or for a web purchase in the app under Me → Settings → League pass → Manage. If it runs out, the league stays readable but no new weeks, scores or players can be added until it's renewed. The same refund rules as Pro apply.
Yardages, maps, hazard positions, green slopes, weather, plays-like distances, AI caddy advice, swing measurements and handicap estimates come from GPS, satellite imagery, public map and elevation data, weather services and automated analysis, including AI models. They can be wrong. Use your own judgment on the course, follow the course's rules and local conditions, and leave the course when there's lightning, whatever the forecast in the app says. Handicaps calculated in Parbook are estimates, not official USGA/GHIN indexes unless they come from GHIN.
Parbook keeps score for side games and shows who owes whom. It doesn't hold or move money; any payment happens between players, outside Parbook, and is your responsibility. Follow the laws where you play.
You own your rounds, messages, photos and other content. So that Parbook can work and be shared, you give us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, copy, display, adapt (for example, into score cards, share images and stills from a swing) and distribute your content, to run, improve and promote Parbook, including on public share pages you create (such as a round, swing or cup link). This license ends when you delete the content or your account, except for: course information you contribute for all golfers (course reports, map fixes and the like), and league scores already recorded in a league, which stay so the course data and the league's standings stay whole; for those the license is perpetual. You confirm you have the right to post what you post.
Parbook has zero tolerance for objectionable content and abusive users. Don't post anything illegal, hateful, sexual, threatening, harassing or abusive, anything that isn't yours to share, or other people's private information, and don't use Parbook to spam, scrape, or break it. You can report a message, comment, photo, profile or course report, and block anyone, right in the app. We review reports, remove content that breaks these rules, and remove the accounts of people who post it, usually within 24 hours.
If you think something on Parbook infringes your copyright, see our Copyright policy for how to tell us. We remove infringing material, and we close the accounts of people who repeatedly infringe others' copyrights (repeat infringers).
Parbook relies on other services, such as Apple, Google, Stripe, RevenueCat, satellite imagery and map data providers, weather services and AI providers (listed in our Privacy policy). Their own terms apply to them. Videos from YouTube play in YouTube's player under YouTube's terms.
Parbook is provided "as is". To the extent the law allows, we aren't liable for indirect or consequential losses, and our total liability for any claim is limited to what you paid us for Parbook in the 12 months before it.
We may update these terms. We'll change the date above, and for big changes we'll tell you in the app.
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York, USA. Questions: support@parbookgolf.com.
