## Why Simple Standings

Jersey Watch is a well-built, fairly priced product, and if your league needs a real website — custom domain, online registration, payment collection, mass communication — it is a reasonable choice and Simple Standings is not a substitute for it. The question worth asking is whether you need all of that. Jersey Watch charges $348 a year and expects you to build and publish a schedule before results and standings appear on your site. Simple Standings does one thing: you type your standings into a table and share a link. It is free with ads, $9.99 once per league takes the ads off instead of $348 a year, there is no website to build, and no schedule is required.

## Frequently asked questions

### What does Jersey Watch cost?

Jersey Watch publishes its pricing openly: $19 for the first month at launch, then $348 per year (they describe it as $29/month), with payment processing at 3.5% + $1 per transaction and no setup fee or contract. Simple Standings is free with ads, or $9.99 once per league to remove them, with no renewal.

### Does Jersey Watch do standings?

Yes, and it does them well — standings display on your website, sortable per division, and update as you add game results. The difference is what has to exist first: divisions, teams, and a published schedule.

### When is Jersey Watch the better choice?

When you need a league website on your own domain, online registration, or payment collection. Simple Standings does none of those things and is not trying to. If a website is the goal, Jersey Watch is the more sensible purchase.

### Can I try Simple Standings without committing?

There is nothing to commit to. Building needs no card, and every new account starts with a sample league already set up, so you can see exactly what your share page looks like before you pay for anything.
