For US leagues

Assign, track and pay your referees in one place.

Helond helps youth and adult leagues fill every game, keep certifications and background checks current, and get officials paid through Venmo, Zelle or bank transfer.

Starter is free forever · No card required

Less time assigning. More time on the field.

One platform replaces the spreadsheets, group texts and cash envelopes.

Fill every game, fast

See who is available, assign in a few clicks, and let Helond catch double-bookings and club conflicts before they happen.

Officials paid before kickoff

Team managers get a payment request with a direct Venmo, Zelle or bank link to each official. Helond never holds your money.

Background checks, tracked

Keep every official’s certification level and background check expiry in one place, with alerts before anything lapses.

Year-end records, ready

Every payment is logged per official. Export season totals to CSV for your treasurer and your 1099 paperwork.

Texts that get answered

Officials get assignments by text and email with one-tap accept or decline. No login, no phone tag.

AI suggestions

Helond ranks your officials for each game by certification, distance, availability and history, and puts the best fit first.

Payments

No more cash envelopes at the field.

Before each game, the team manager gets a payment request showing the official, the game and the exact fee. One tap opens the official's Venmo or Zelle. Your league sees who has paid, and officials see their season earnings.

  • Venmo, Zelle and bank transfer supported
  • Flat fee per payment, shown to teams as a clear line item
  • Reminders go out automatically if a team hasn’t paid
  • Cash still works: managers can log a cash payment

Questions from US leagues

Does Helond hold or process our money?

No. Money moves directly from team managers or your league to officials through Venmo, Zelle or bank transfer. Helond sends the payment request, tracks who has paid, and records it.

Do you file 1099s for our officials?

No. Helond keeps a payment record for every official so you can export season totals in one CSV. Your treasurer or accountant handles the tax forms.

Which sports do you support?

Soccer, flag football, basketball, volleyball, softball, field hockey and rugby, each with its own roles, officials per game and certification levels. Running another sport? Get in touch and tell us what you need.
