Frequently Asked Questions

How does scoring work?

You pick 5 PGA Tour golfers before each major begins. Your score is the real prize money those golfers earn on the official leaderboard — not fantasy points. The more your golfers earn, the higher your ranking in the group.

When do my picks lock?

Picks lock when the first round of the tournament begins. You can edit or resubmit your picks at any time before that. Once the tournament is underway, picks are final.

What is the Tiebreaker?

When submitting picks, you predict the winning golfer's final score (e.g. -15). If two entries finish with equal earnings, the one whose tiebreaker prediction is closest to the actual winning score wins.

What is Champion Pick?

If your group has Champion Pick enabled, you can crown one of your five picks as your predicted tournament champion before the field tees off. It's worth extra bragging rights if your pick wins — it doesn't affect your score, just your glory.

How do I create or join a group?

Tap Groups and then Create Group to start your own. To join a friend's group, tap Join and enter their invite code, or ask them to share the invite link directly.

What is the Community Pool?

The Community Pool is a free public group where any Purse user can compete. You don't need an invite — just join and submit your picks before the tournament starts.

Can I submit multiple entries?

If the group organizer has enabled multiple entries, yes. You can submit up to 5 separate lineups, each with its own golfer selections and tiebreaker.

How often does the leaderboard update?

The leaderboard syncs from ESPN every 30 minutes while a tournament is active. Scores may lag slightly behind the live broadcast.

Why am I not receiving push notifications?

Make sure notifications are enabled for The Purse in your iPhone Settings → Notifications. You can also check your notification preferences inside the app under Settings → Notifications.

How do I delete my account?

Go to Settings (tap your profile icon) → Delete Account. You'll be asked to type DELETE to confirm. This permanently removes your account, picks, and group memberships.

I signed in with Apple — can I change my email?

Email is managed through your Apple ID. To change the email used with The Purse, visit Settings on your iPhone → Apple IDPassword & SecuritySign-In & Security.
