The idea

Golf Match Play, a portal for creating a personal golf player network, brought golf enthusiasts together to meet and challenge each other. International golf events took place in different countries throughout the year, culminating in an annual Championship in Dubai. We developed this project from scratch, revitalizing a concept dating back to the 90s while maintaining its essence in a modern design.

What we built

A Ruby on Rails platform connecting golfers globally.

  • Leaderboard Player rankings, played-game tracking, and competition with others, with the same opponent playable only a limited number of times per year, ensuring transparency and excitement
  • PayPal and Stripe integration Secure payment gateway for tournament entries and memberships
  • Affiliate program Promoting user engagement through referrals
  • Event management Organization tools for local and international golf events
  • Modern redesign Maintaining the nostalgic feel of the original project while enhancing with modern functionality

The result

An engaging golf community platform. The Leaderboard and unique match restrictions drove competition and interaction among players. PayPal and Stripe simplified payments, and the affiliate program incentivized user growth. The platform successfully revitalized a 90s concept for the modern web, supporting the global golf community.
