Pricing for Golf, Events and Maps.
A course or event organizer pays one flat fee. A business running its own Maps campaign pays for qualifying acknowledgments.
WilDi Golf
One flat fee for each course.
Ongoing course
- A named course is one course under its own name, however many holes.
- A sponsor message on every hole, sponsors who manage their own sponsor messages, and a report for each sponsor.
- Build it free; charged at go-live and automatically each month after. Or $5,750.40 for a year upfront (20% off $7,188).
Dated tournament
- For a tournament with set dates, per named course.
- Paid once upfront.
- No subscription and no automatic renewal.
Paid by the course or organizer, never by a sponsor. Sponsors pay the course directly for the holes and packages it sells.

WilDi Maps, from $0.25 per qualifying acknowledgment
No monthly fee.
Pay only for qualifying acknowledgments.
Add campaign funds to your wallet, send your message, and pay a fixed price per qualifying acknowledgment: a member taps the WilDi button to acknowledge your message, and the acknowledgment passes our billing rules. Each qualifying acknowledgment is billed as one verified delivery, so the rates below are shown per verified delivery. No auction and no platform fee.
You pay when a real person acknowledges your message. Never for a delivery alone, never for an impression.

WilDi Maps is based in Jacksonville, Florida. Background messages offer city-wide, regional or nationwide targeting (delivers only where members are active, today mainly Jacksonville).
Dollars per verified human action
Every other channel charges for impressions, clicks, or plays. On the advertising industry's own benchmark, most of that spend never even clears its quality bar for a measurable, viewable impression. We charge only when a real local person in your area taps the WilDi button to acknowledge your message and the acknowledgment qualifies. A message that reaches a phone but is never acknowledged is never billed.

Frequently asked
How does the prepay wallet work?
You add campaign funds when you sign up. Every qualifying acknowledgment (verified delivery) debits your wallet at the rate shown for your tier and ad type. When the balance drops below your auto-refill threshold, we charge your card for a top-up. You set both the threshold and the refill amount.
What counts as a verified delivery?
A verified delivery is a qualifying acknowledgment: your message reaches the phone of a real person in one of your zones, tunnels or backgrounds, that person taps the WilDi button to acknowledge it, and the acknowledgment passes our billing rules. It is the only thing you pay for. We use the phone's own motion and GPS to confirm a real trip, and flag emulators, multi-account abuse and duplicate acknowledgments; flagged activity is never billed. An acknowledgment is not a redemption, a visit or a purchase.
What's the difference between Background, Tunnel, and Zone?
Background ads have no area limit by default, so they can deliver anywhere member coverage is active, or you limit them to one area you pick so budget is never spent outside it. Tunnels are 1-mile road strips you choose; multiple advertisers can run tunnels on the same road. Zones are exclusive neighborhood hexagons (H3 resolution 8, about 0.28 square miles). Only one business per hex at a time. Exclusive means no other business can hold a Zone on the same hexagon at the same time. Background and Tunnel ads from other businesses can still reach members there.
How is this different from Google Ads?
Google charges per click in an auction, and the price depends on the keyword and who else is bidding; published benchmarks are on our Sources page. WilDi has no auction: a fixed, published price per qualifying acknowledgment, charged only when a real person taps the WilDi button to acknowledge your message and the acknowledgment qualifies. A message nobody acknowledges costs nothing.
What happens if my wallet runs out?
Deliveries stop immediately. No one earns from an undelivered message. If you have auto-refill on, your card is charged and deliveries resume. If auto-refill is off, you can manually top up from the dashboard anytime.
Can I change tiers later?
Yes. Upgrades require topping up to the new tier's minimum deposit. Downgrades take effect immediately for new deliveries. Any ads that exceed the new tier's limits are paused (not deleted). You can reactivate them by upgrading again.
Do you offer refunds?
Unused balance stays in your account and rolls over while your account is open. It is forfeited if you close your account. Deliveries already made are not refunded. If you spot a fraudulent delivery, contact support; we'll investigate and credit your wallet if confirmed.
What about taxes?
Stripe handles applicable sales tax at checkout based on your billing address. You'll see the exact tax line on the deposit receipt.
