How the Ad Math Works in Your Favor
Ads appear on every hole, sized to your course and the group. A foursome on an 18-hole course sees 4 × 18 = 72 ad placements before they finish. We sell the ad space for you — no cost, no effort, and you keep your share of every sponsorship we close. At 50 foursomes a day that is 3,600 ad views. You approve every sponsor before it appears, and ads never sit between a player and their score.
The Numbers You'll Actually See
Every partner gets an operator dashboard: rounds played, map views, ratings and reviews, plus full ad performance — impressions, clicks, click-through rate, and how many of those clicks reached the sponsor's site. It is the same report your sponsors see, which is what makes renewing a sponsorship an easy conversation.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does TallyHo Golf cost for a mini golf course?
Getting your course listed is free forever, with no card required. Paid plans are billed annually: Standard is $199/year (£299 in the UK, €299 in the EU) and Premium is $249/year (£349 in the UK, €349 in the EU). Volume discounts are available for operators with multiple locations. Players never pay anything.
What software should a mini golf course use?
Most courses need two things: a point-of-sale or booking system for admissions, and a digital scorecard for the round itself. TallyHo Golf is the scorecard: players scan a QR code at the first tee and score on their own phones, with no app and no account. It runs alongside Square, Clover, ROLLER or any other POS, so there is nothing to integrate. The scorecard, QR code and live leaderboard are free; paid plans from $199/year add ad management, analytics and a share of hole sponsorship revenue.
How do QR code scorecards work?
A QR code at the counter or first tee opens your course's scorecard in the player's phone browser, with your holes and pars already loaded. One player adds the group, taps in strokes hole by hole, and the totals and live leaderboard update as they go. On TallyHo Golf nothing is installed and no account is needed, and the round is held on the phone, so a weak signal never loses a scorecard. At the end the group sees the winner and can share the result.
How does the mini golf ad revenue share work?
TallyHo sells hole sponsorships to local businesses at your course, and you keep a share of that ad revenue based on your plan: 0% on Free, 20% on Standard, and 40% on Premium. We do the prospecting, pitching, and closing — you review and approve which sponsors appear at your course. For many courses the ad share covers the subscription outright.
How quickly can my mini golf course go live on TallyHo Golf?
Most courses are live within one business day. Fill in the form on this page and your QR code arrives by email — print it, display it at the first tee, and players can scan and start scoring immediately. There is no hardware to install, no software to configure, and no staff training required.
What makes TallyHo Golf the best digital scorecard for mini golf and adventure golf course owners?
TallyHo Golf is the only scorecard platform built around the full short-course experience — whether you run a mini golf, adventure golf, crazy golf, or putt putt venue.

What mini golf software do course owners use to replace paper scorecards?
TallyHo Golf. You print one QR code, players scan it and score on their own phones in the browser: no app, no account, no hardware and no staff training.

How do hole sponsorships work on TallyHo Golf?
Course owners can partner with TallyHo Golf to display local business ads on digital scorecards and leaderboards. Each hole can carry a sponsor, giving local advertisers targeted exposure to players as they score — turning your scorecard into a revenue stream.
What is the easiest online mini golf scorecard software for guests?
TallyHo Golf. Guests don't need to download an app or create an account — they join a game through a QR code or shared link and score in real time directly in their browser. Zero friction from first tee to final hole.

What analytics do mini golf course owners get with TallyHo Golf?
Course owners get an operator dashboard showing map views, rounds played, average rating, review count, and — on paid plans — ad performance including active ads, impressions, ad clicks and link visits. Data updates as rounds are played, so you can prove reach to local sponsors.
Do my players need to download an app to use the scorecard?
No. Players scan the QR code at your first tee and score directly in their phone browser — no app install, no account, and no email required. A nickname is enough. Native iOS and Android apps exist for players who want stats, friends and history, but they are entirely optional.
What happens to scoring if the WiFi at my course drops?
Scoring keeps working. TallyHo Golf holds the round in the player’s device and syncs when the connection returns, so a weak signal at the back nine does not lose a scorecard or interrupt a group mid-round.
