Ringer is invite-only right now: the waitlist and invite codes

Short answer. Depending on when you sign up, Ringer may be opening the gates a crew at a time. If so, creating an account puts you on the waitlist, and an invite code from a member, or a game invitation from a host, lets you in right away.

How it works

When Ringer is invite-only, the Create account form says "Ringer is invite-only right now — create your account, then enter your invite code (or you'll join the waitlist)." After you sign in, you see a page with the badge "You're on the list" and the line "We're opening the gates a crew at a time. We'll let you know the moment it's your turn — or jump the line with an invite code from a member."

There are three ways through:

1. An invite code. A member gives you a code. Enter it on the waitlist page and you are in.
2. A game invitation. If a host has invited you to a game using your email or mobile number, that spot attaches to your account and opens the door on its own. No code needed. If you were invited but still see the waitlist, make sure the email or phone on your account matches the one the host used, or sign in with Have an invite? Continue with phone.
3. Wait. Ringer lets you know when it is your turn.

If Ringer is not invite-only when you arrive, none of this appears and you land straight in the app.

Steps

To redeem a code:

1. Sign in. If you are on the waitlist, the page opens automatically. It shows "Signed in as" your email.
2. Type the code into Invite code. Upper or lower case, it does not matter.
3. Tap Unlock Ringer.
4. You land in the app, or in the short setup flow if you have not finished it.

Good to know

• A code can be single-use, limited to a number of people, or unlimited. The person who gave it to you knows which.
• Each account can use a given code once. Once you are in, you stay in.
• Sign out is on the waitlist page too, in case you signed in with the wrong account.

If it doesn't work

• "Enter your invite code." The field is empty.
• "That code isn't valid. Check it and try again." Typo, or the code does not exist. Ask whoever sent it to read it back.
• "That code is no longer active." The code was switched off. Ask for another.
• "That code has already been fully used." It hit its limit before you got there. Ask for another.
• "You've already used that code." This account already redeemed it. Sign in with the account you used, or refresh the page; you may already be in.
• "Please sign in first." Your session ended. Sign in and try again.
• "Couldn't redeem that code — please try again." A momentary error. Try once more.
• No code, no invitation, and you need in today? Email support@ringer.golf.
