Golf's a great game. Let's keep it that way on Grip.

Play the ball, not the man

Be civil. Disagreement is fine; abuse, harassment, and personal attacks are not. That goes for DMs, groups, and profile content alike.

Be who you say you are

Use your real name and a recent photo. Report your handicap honestly. Nothing ruins a round faster than a 20 claiming to be a 12.

Keep it safe, on and off the app

• Meet new partners at public courses, in daylight, for the first round
• Tell someone where you're going
• Never send money through Grip
• Report anything that feels off — we read every report

No spam, no scams, no selling

Grip is for matches and rounds. No coaching ads, merch pushes, or pyramid whatever. Teaching pros — we've got a proper Partners programme; drop us a line.

Respect the course

Repair divots. Rake bunkers. Fix pitch marks. Play ready golf. Keep pace.

Reporting & moderation

Tap the flag icon on any profile or message to report. We review within 24 hours and take proportionate action: warning, suspension, or permanent removal depending on severity.

Serious reports (threats, harassment, safety concerns): [email protected].

The short version

Don't be a jerk. Play golf.
