We’re excited to bring you up to speed on some of the items you have been requesting within the PinSeeker experience. Below is an update on our product roadmap:
Feature – E6 CONNECT iOS Compatibility 📱📱
One of the most requested features is finally here. For the past 4 weeks we have been testing PinSeeker being enabled in the iOS version of E6Connect. This is slated to launch in early April. Thank you for your patience getting this launch out to your mobile devices!
ETA: Early April
Feature – Tournament Flighting 🥇🥈🥉
While anyone can win in a closest-to-the-pin competition it’s obvious that win percentage as a better golfer is higher. We have been collecting data on every shot and are crafting a dynamic handicapping system that will flight tournaments appropriately. This feature will release with a rolling update in this order:
Algorithm: We have implemented an algorithm which is calculating a PinSeeker skill index which ranges from 1-36. New players will start with an index of 19. Your skill index will be visible in your profile.
Tournaments: Tournaments will be allocated across two flights initially: Champions & Rookies. We will eventually roll out two additional flights for a total of four.
New Tournament Homepage: The flighted tournaments will lead to a completely new way to visualize and select tournaments.
We are currently running Beta tournaments leveraging flighted tournaments giving some of you an early look.
ETA: Mid-May Full Release
Over the past couple of months, you may have noticed a lot of enhancements around our payment and payout processes. This is all geared to get us ready to turn on eWallet for our US players. We know how many people have requested this and we are happy to say we are almost ready for release.
Update: Many of you are aware we broke the payments experience up into multiple smaller enhancements. The last enhancement with full eWallet capability is in its last phases of testing and will be released to a beta group in mid May.
ETA: Mid May release
