About REFSIX

REFSIX is a revolutionary smartwatch and mobile app that helps referees track their physical performance and manage their matches on and off the pitch. We are like Strava for referees - our users love the product and seeing detailed information about their matches and season. We embrace a customer focussed mentality when deciding which features to build.

In 2019 we had active users in over 95 countries who completed over 95,000 matches and ran a combined 9 times around the earth! See more stats here.
