About

Tailgate Command

Read full description

Run game day like a pro. Tailgate Command is the command center for your crew. Track who's paid their dues, who's bringing what, and who's actually showing up, all in one place. Stop chasing people in the group chat. WHY ORGANIZERS LOVE IT: A live dues ledger - Set a per-head amount and see exactly who's paid and who hasn't, in real time. Collect with one tap to Venmo or Cash App. No spreadsheets, no "I'll get you next time." A shared menu - Build the spread together. Everyone claims what they're bringing or buying, so you never end up with five bags of chips and no buns. Real RSVPs - Going, pending, or can't make it, at a glance. Know your real headcount before you shop, not after. Host messages and reminders - Post the plan to the whole crew and nudge anyone who still owes, with push notifications that actually get seen. Crew chat and photos - A group chat and a shared gallery for every tailgate, so the trash talk and the memories live in one spot. Run it back all season - Recurring seasons carry your crew, dues, and settings from game to game. One tailgate, every Saturday, zero re-setup. HOW IT WORKS 1. Create your tailgate: add the game, the spot, and the per-head dues. 2. Share a custom join code or link, and your crew is in. 3. They RSVP, claim menu items, and pay their share. 4. You show up and relax. The ledger's settled and the cooler's covered. A NOTE ON PAYMENTS Tailgate Command never handles money. When someone pays their dues, the app simply opens Venmo or Cash App with the amount pre-filled. Payments happen directly between you and your crew. Built for the friend who always organizes. Download Tailgate Command and run your best tailgate season yet.
