Confidence
foreUP is a genuine cloud-based golf course management system founded in 2011 and acquired by Clubessential Holdings (now Xplor Technologies) in 2021. The domain foreupsoftware.com serves as the official login and booking portal for the platform, used by over 2,000 golf courses. Our antivirus network flagged zero threats across 92 engines, the hosting IP has zero abuse reports, and SSL is valid. Independent review sites rate the software highly (approximately 4.6/5 stars on Software Advice from 150+ reviews), with users praising its ease of use and support. The two isolated complaints in the evidence package — one Reddit user mistaking a foreUP email for a scam and one spam registry entry — are minor noise against the company's established track record and widespread legitimate use. The domain's lack of contact information on the login page is typical for a B2B SaaS login portal, not a red flag.
Full dossier
Analysis complete

Page Content

The page is a straightforward login portal for foreUP's golf course management platform. It displays a login form, password-reset link, and a reference to Bull Run Golf Club in Haymarket, VA — a real golf course using the system. No phishing indicators, credential-harvesting patterns, or scam copy detected.

Infrastructure

Hosted on AWS (IP 52.38.44.57) with zero abuse reports. SSL certificate issued by Amazon and valid for 77 more days. No redirects, no homoglyph tricks, no IDN abuse. All technical signals are clean.

Domain History

foreUP was founded in 2011 in Pleasant Grove, Utah, and acquired by Clubessential Holdings in 2021. The company is now part of Xplor Technologies, headquartered in Blue Ash, Ohio. Business registration is active and verified. The domain is used as the official login subdomain for hundreds of golf courses.

Web Reputation

Software Advice lists approximately 150+ reviews averaging 4.6/5 stars, with users consistently praising the platform's functionality, support responsiveness, and ease of use. The company claims 2,000+ golf courses as customers. Reddit discussions in r/golf and r/CelsiusNetwork reference foreUP as standard tee-time booking software. Two minor complaints (one mistaken-identity email concern, one spam registry entry) are isolated noise against the company's established reputation.

Still, stay alert

No major threat indicators — but a clean scan does not guarantee every page is safe, and phishing emails routinely spoof real domains.

  • Double-check the exact URL in your address bar

    Confirm you are actually on foreupsoftware.com and not a lookalike like f-oreupsoftware.com.com or an IDN homoglyph.

  • Use a password manager

    Password managers only auto-fill on the exact domain they were saved for — they refuse to fill lookalike domains, which is the single best phishing defence.

  • Discuss this site on the forum

    If you have first-hand experience with this site — good or bad — share it with the MalwareTips community.

Safety FAQ

Common questions about this site, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers always reflect the latest verdict on this page.

  • Our automated security review found no threat indicators on foreupsoftware.com. The site appears legitimate based on the signals we checked, but always stay alert for phishing emails that spoof real domains.
  • foreupsoftware.com passed our automated security checks with a trust score of 88/100. No antivirus engines or major blacklists flagged the site at the time of the last scan.
  • Yes. foreupsoftware.com presents a valid TLSv1.2 certificate issued by Amazon · Amazon RSA 2048 M03, expiring in 77 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.

  • No. foreupsoftware.com is not currently listed on the major browser blocklist feeds that modern browsers use.
  • foreupsoftware.com resolves to an IP operated by Amazon Technologies Inc. in US (usage type: Data Center/Web Hosting/Transit). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad, but unusual geography for a brand's claimed country is one of many signals we weigh.
