Founder Sports Club User Reviews

Meetups rarely happen

I was initially excited to download this app based on the concept but unfortunately the meetups seem to never happen. Everytime you get matched in a group of people noone replys to messages and 3 out of 3 times the meetup never happened meaning I paid for the app but never once had a meetup. Then when informing customer support after the 1st time they took a long time to respond and nothing ever changed.

Spent 10 months - Total Scam.

This whole app and system is a complete scam.

I actually left an honest negative review before and I saw their ad come up and lo and behold somehow my review is not on their app on the App Store. More fishy behavior.

I was a paid subscriber and stuck with this app and business for 10 months and I’m almost 100% sure they fill it with just bots.

You basically get paired with five random people every month and maybe one other person in every one of those groups would send a message back.

App is super buggy since you can’t even click some buttons.

There are advertisements and images are also all just Caucasian people which is really funny to me.

You will notice that you will not see a single image or video of a non-Caucasian person anywhere on their website or profile.

Pretty ridiculous for a community that is trying to bring people together.


I gave them 10 months to get their act together and the whole thing is just a giant scam .

Finding my people through sport ⚽️

Finding your people is hard. FSC makes it surprisingly easy and way more fun & authentic than any other networking event.

Great app!!

I’ve lived in NYC almost 10 years, one would think it’s easy to meet new people. NOPE. But in 2 months of being a member, I’ve already met 6 founders. Someone does need to take charge in the group chat to facilitate the meet up, as long as you do that WIN!!

Do not recommend

Paid for three months and only received one month of matches. Reached out for support and they never resolved it by giving me two months of matches that was remaining or refunding the money. Not a scam but it might as well be as they can’t deliver the level of service they are promising. They should at minimum be issuing refunds if they can’t deliver

Hey Jess, really sorry to hear this :( Our matching runs monthly and members need to opt in each month to be included (to make sure we're only matching engaged and available memebrs) if that wasn't clear, that's on us. Either way, you paid for three months and only got one month of value, and that needs to be made right. Email us referencing this review and we'll either get you your two remaining months of matches or issue a refund, whichever you prefer. We'll sort it quickly. - Team FSC

Complete waste

Their advertising is pretty good, but that’s it.
You get put together with a group of other founders a few days before an event but you can chat with each other to organise something just 2 days prior.
It’s tough to book sport venues in big cities two days prior guys!!

This app does nothing that a free Facebook group doesn’t do 100x better.
So I’m out again!

Hey, appreciate you sharing this. You’re right that last-minute planning in big cities can be frustrating, and when timing feels tight, the experience falls short. That’s something we’re actively improving, especially around earlier intros and better coordination. Thanks for giving it a shot and being straight with us. Send us an email if you're interested in sharing more about your experience and we'll than you with a free month so you can give the improved app another shot! - Team FSC

Rubbish

Signed up and paid a steep price. No one actually showed up. Asked for refund, ignored. Nice experience…

Response from developer

Hey there, sorry to hear your group wasn't active and that that was your experience. If nobody showed up you're 100% eligible for a refund. If your refund email didn't land where it should have, please email us again and we’ll sort this properly. Appreciate you flagging it. - Team FSC

Terrible!

This is such a scam! They say that you’ll have access to all these founders and yet the app doesn’t even work. I’m not normally a bad reviewer unless it’s really awful. But even when I emailed to cancel, they tried to convince me to “take a crack at it”… which would be great if the app or website actually worked. So irritated by this! Damn these nice Instagram ads!

Response from developer

Hey there, sorry this was your experience. That’s definitely not how FSC is meant to feel. If the app wasn’t working properly for you, that’s on us. And if our reply when you emailed came across as pushy rather than helpful, we apologise for that too. Would love to know the exact issues you were facing and if you’d still like to cancel or get a refund, just email us and we’ll sort it quickly. Your feedback does help us improve the app so thank you. - Team FSC

Scam?

I was never actually offered a meet up & they denied my request for a refund. All communications said "wait to hear from us for the next meet up". Two months went by & still no meet up. She said I had to opt in but the app said I was opted in.

Response from developer

Hey there! I’m really sorry this was your experience. This isn’t how FSC is meant to feel, and I completely understand why you’d be frustrated. We run matching on a monthly cycle, and members do need to be correctly opted in for each round. That said, if the app showed you as opted in and you still weren’t matched, that’s on us, either a system issue or a communication breakdown on our side, not yours. On refunds: if a member doesn’t get a chance to meet anyone, we absolutely stand by our guarantee. You shouldn’t feel like you had to fight for that, and I’m sorry if that’s how it came across. If you’re open to it, please email us directly and reference this review, I'll personally look into your account, make this right, and either get you properly matched or issue a full refund immediately (ideally both). Thanks for taking the time to share this. Feedback like this genuinely helps us improve, and we do care deeply about getting the experience right.

Like the concept but execution is not acceptable

Paid $60 just to get nothing. You can’t even browse or find anything of value. They will supposedly match you with something on the first of every month. Wanted to love this but honestly feels like this app is a waste of space and I was lowkey scammed. They should not be charging for this level of product.

Great Concept- Terrible Execution

Paid $60 dollars at the beginning of November to be told I wouldn’t be eligible for matches until December. Checked the app today(December 4th), it now says I’ll start receiving matches in January. If this is just a poorly structured company and not a scam, they need to focus less on aesthetic and more on content and value.

Response from developer

Hey there! Thanks for sharing this, and sorry for the confusion here. I completely get why this felt frustrating. Matching runs on a monthly cycle, so depending on when someone joins, there can be a short wait before their first match. That said, the way this was surfaced in the app clearly wasn’t clear enough, and that’s on us. If you don’t want to wait or feel this wasn’t a good fit, just email us and we’ll happily refund you. And if you do stick around, we’ll make sure you’re properly included in the next matching round. Appreciate the honest feedback, we’re actively improving the experience.

Best of both worlds (sports and biz)

I’ve met so many legends through this community

Biggest scam

Don’t sign up!! They will just take your money then no match you with anyone. Then refuse to cancel your membership. Terrible terrible terrible I would give 0 stars if possible

Response from developer

Hey there, that’s definitely not how this is meant to go; really sorry if that was your experience. If you didn’t receive matches, it could mean there weren’t active members in your city just yet (we’re expanding fast!). Appreciate you being one of the early adopters. Means a lot. And cancellations should be smooth, if that’s still unresolved, we’ll sort it ASAP. Just shoot us an email. – Team FSC

Horrible

Waited half a month to even get a Match, then nobody replied to meet up. 180€ for nothing!!!!

I love your social Media Content and the idea of the FSC but Exekution is terrible

Response from developer

Hey Jeremy, really appreciate the kind words about the idea behind FSC. Just to clarify: we match founders once a month, so depending on when you signed up, there can be a short wait while we build your group. Totally get how that could’ve felt like a delay. Also, our membership is not €180, so if for any reason you were charged more, definitely email us and we’ll get that refunded right away. Appreciate you giving it a shot early on. We’re working hard to improve the FSC experience. – Team FSC

Total Scam

I subscribed to this club and was told that my membership was pending (but was still charged for it). I then was told I was supposed to have “opted in” every month to be paired with matches, on top of still being billed. Seemed like a really cool idea, so I’m bummed it didn’t work out.

Response from developer

Hey there, thanks for the honest feedback, and totally hear your frustration. Just to clarify: “pending” means your account was in manual review (we vet every member to keep the community high-quality). And the monthly opt-in helps make sure you're only matched when you're actually available, so no one ends up in a dead group. That’s on us if we didn’t explain that better. We’d genuinely love for you to give FSC another shot, on us. Just email and reference this review and we’ll set you up with a free account. Hope we can give you a better experience next time. – Team FSC

Bad experience

Trash Customer Service

Response from developer

Hey, sorry to hear support felt that way. That’s not how we want anyone to experience FSC. If something slipped through the cracks, please email us so we can look into it properly. We’re improving and building every week, and your feedback helps. – Team FSC

Outstanding Marketing, Horrible Customer Service

I really wanted to give this app a fair chance. The concept sounded promising, and they even claimed there’s some kind of “guarantee” if nothing comes out of it. Unfortunately, my experience was the exact opposite.
When I tried to cancel my subscription, it was technically impossible. The login didn’t work with my email, the app didn’t allow it, and even the receipt details couldn’t be used. I reached out to support several times, hoping for an actual solution. Instead of addressing my issue, I got an ai-slop copy-paste email trying to sell me on their “new features.”
So much for guarantees. Apparently, it’s easier to send out marketing fluff than to process a simple refund or acknowledge a cancellation request.
If you enjoy smooth marketing slogans but zero accountability when it comes to customer service – this app is for you. Otherwise, save yourself the frustration.

Response from developer

Hey there, really sorry this was your experience. Totally fair to be frustrated, and we’d love to understand what went wrong with your cancellation flow. If there were any issues on your end, our support team can usually sort it directly. We also have a 100% money-back guarantee, so if you didn’t get the value you signed up for, just email us and we’ll take care of the refund. Appreciate you taking the time to share this, we’re taking it seriously. – Team FSC

Great Concept failed to Deliver

The concept is great! When it comes to onboarding it’s not the best you can’t even Sign in with Apple or google. Then you have to pay before even discovering users. People want to test an app and see if they like it before having to pay for it.

Response from developer

Hey legend! First off, thanks for giving our new app a go. That means a lot 🙏 Totally hear you on Apple/Google sign-in. It didn’t make it into the first version, but it’s on our list (we’re just as keen for it). On paying before exploring - fair shout. FSC isn’t a typical networking app. There’s no endless scrolling. Instead, members commit upfront, we manually vet every profile, and then match founders monthly to meet IRL. That’s how we keep the community high-quality, engaged, and ghost-free. But hey, we’d love for you to experience it yourself. Shoot us a note at sports@artofmondays.com we’ll sort you out with something to try it firsthand 👀🚀

Scam!!!

Huge scam!! This app charges you before you’re even accepted into the app or match with any people. Such a terrible idea for a business model.

Response from developer

Hey Ashley, really sorry to hear it felt that way. We ask for payment upfront to keep the community serious, not just curious - and that commitment helps make the experience actually work. Better matches, fewer flakes, and founders who genuinely show up. It’s a committed community, and once you’re in, you’ll feel the difference. That said, your experience matters to us. Hit us up at sports@artofmondays.com we’d love to make it right ❤️‍🔥 Big love for the honest feedback 🙏
