The panel's verdict
HorseLinc is a stable and equestrian management app that links horse records, service requests, invoices and payments in one place and collects payment for services such as braiding, farrier and veterinary care. It is strongest on the boarder portal, the review's highest scores at 4-5: horse managers see their horse's records and service history, request and coordinate services with providers, settle invoices in the same view, and switch roles when they act as both manager and provider. Boarding and billing scored a flat 4, reaching one-off service payment but stopping short of contract billing — the rationales found no public information on board contracts, recurring monthly invoices, SEPA mandates or accounting export. Staff and operations, facilities and lessons and pricing transparency all scored 0, and sovereignty scored 0-1 with no sovereignty attributes on record. No criterion spans more than a point, and the flagged splits report none; the vendor publishes no prices.
Speaks for it
- Horse records, service requests, invoices and payments sit linked in one place without re-entering data
- Payments for services like braiding, farrier and veterinary care are collected in the app
- Each horse's profile carries a service history that can be shared with providers
- Horse managers get their own app view of records, invoices and payments and can switch between manager and provider roles
- How-to videos are available
Held against it
- We found no public information on board contracts per box, recurring monthly invoices, SEPA mandates, VAT treatment or an export to an accounting tool
- We found no public information on structured feeding plans, vaccination or worming schedules, medication logs or an export of a horse's file
- Staff and operations scored 0, with no public information on tasks, feeding rounds, rotas or time recording
- Facilities and lessons scored 0, with no public information on arena or equipment booking, lessons or school horses
- No sovereignty attributes are on record — the contracting entity, hosting location and subprocessors are unstated
Best for
- You are a horse manager who wants to request services like farrier, braiding or veterinary care, pay in the app, and see the charge tied to your horse's record
- You act as both horse manager and service provider and need to switch between the two roles
- You want to keep and share each horse's service history with providers such as farriers and vets
Avoid if
- Your yard runs on lessons, school horses, course registration and arena or equipment booking
- You employ grooms and need tasks, feeding rounds, rotas and time recording
- Your income depends on recurring monthly board billing per box, with SEPA direct debit and accounting export
- You must verify the contracting entity, hosting location or subprocessors before boarder, staff or horse data flows

Board contracts, extra services & billing
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
How the stable gets paid: board contracts per box and horse, extra services logged at the moment they are done, prepaid credit, recurring invoices, SEPA direct debit, VAT treatment that a tax adviser accepts, and an export to the accountant.
0 — No billing at all; services are noted somewhere and invoiced by hand in another tool.
3 — A list of services or a price table per horse, but invoices are written outside the system and nothing connects a logged service to a charge.
5 — Board contracts and extra services billed from the system: monthly invoices generated from contracts plus logged services, sent to the boarder, with payment status tracked.
8 — Services logged on the phone where they happen flow into the invoice or a prepaid balance automatically, SEPA direct debit with mandates, VAT rates configurable per service type, cancellation and credit notes, and an export to DATEV or a named accounting tool.
10 — The money side is discharged inside the system: GoBD-compliant numbering and archiving stated, e-invoices (XRechnung/ZUGFeRD) supported, prepaid credit with low-balance warnings, dunning, multiple payers per horse (shares, Reitbeteiligung) split correctly, and every charge traceable to the logged service and the staff member who logged it.
The Boarding-Stable Owner
Requests for services like farrier, braiding and veterinary care are linked to invoices and payments in one place without re-entering data, and payments are collected through the app — that is more than a price table typed by hand. But I found no public information on board contracts per box and horse, monthly invoices generated from contracts, SEPA direct debit with mandates, VAT treatment per service, credit notes, or an export to DATEV or any accounting tool, so the recurring board side of my yard is unevidenced. 1 2
The Stable Manager
Services requested through the app flow into invoices and payments without re-entering data, and the vendor speaks of collecting payment for braiding, farrier and veterinary work instead of chasing checks. We found no public information on board contracts per box and horse, recurring monthly invoicing, SEPA direct debit mandates, VAT treatment or an export to an accounting tool. 1
The Boarder
Farrier, braiding and veterinary work can be paid for inside the app, and invoices sit linked to the horse's record and the service request, so a charge traces back to a job done — that is more than a hand-written bill. But I found no public information on board contracts per box, monthly recurring invoices, SEPA mandates, VAT treatment or an export to an accounting tool, and the captured pages give no public information on how the standing board fee — most of my five hundred euros a month — is billed. 1 2
The Riding-School Lead
The pages show payments collected in the app for services like braiding, farrier and veterinary care, with invoices and payments tied to each horse's records, and there is a page advertising an invite-by-invoice feature. We found no public information on board contracts per box, recurring monthly invoices, SEPA direct debit, VAT treatment or an export to an accounting tool, which is the part my board side would run on. 1 2
The Tax Adviser
The captured pages show payments collected in the app for one-off services like braiding, farrier and veterinary care, with invoices, requests and payments linked in one place, and a showcase page for invoicing listed in the sitemap. But I found no public information on recurring board contracts per box, SEPA mandates, VAT rates per service type, credit notes or an export to DATEV or any named accounting tool, which is what the money side of a stable actually needs. 1 2
The Skeptic
The homepage ties requests, invoices and payments together in one place and collects payment for services like braiding, farrier and veterinary care, and the site carries a feature page on invoicing. We found no public information on board contracts, recurring monthly invoices, SEPA mandates, VAT treatment or an export to an accounting tool, so this stays short of contract-based billing. 1 2
Horse records, feeding & health
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
The record per horse: master data and passport details, feeding and supplement plans, vaccinations, worming, farrier and vet appointments, medication given, turnout and blanket instructions — kept so that a vet, an inspector or the owner can rely on it, and exportable when the horse leaves.
0 — No horse records beyond a name; care instructions live on a whiteboard.
3 — A profile per horse with free-text notes and perhaps a photo, but no structured feeding plan, no health schedule and no history.
5 — Structured feeding plans per horse shown to staff by feeding round, vaccinations, worming and farrier dates recorded with reminders, and appointments per horse in a calendar.
8 — Health records with due dates to the FN/LPO vaccination schedule, a medication log with dose, date and who administered it, owner instructions (blankets, turnout, special feed) visible to whoever does the round, and a full history per horse exportable as a document.
10 — A record that stands up to scrutiny: medication documentation meeting the TAMG duties for food-producing equines stated, passport and UELN data held, every change attributed and dated, vet and farrier entries from external professionals possible, and the complete file handed to a new stable in a documented export format.
The Boarding-Stable Owner
Each horse carries a profile with a service history shared between manager and provider, which beats a whiteboard for the farrier and vet trail. I found no public information on structured feeding plans by feeding round, vaccination and worming schedules with reminders, a medication log with dose and who administered it, blanket and turnout instructions, or an exportable file when a horse leaves my yard. 1
The Stable Manager
Each horse carries a maintained service history that can be shared, which is a genuine record rather than notes on a whiteboard. We found no public information on structured feeding plans the night shift could read, vaccination or worming schedules with reminders, a medication log showing dose and who administered it, or a documented export when a horse leaves. 1
The Boarder
Each horse keeps a service history in its profile, which is where I would look up what the farrier actually did. Beyond that I found no public information on structured feeding plans, vaccination or worming schedules with reminders, medication logs, turnout or blanket instructions, or any export of the horse's file when it leaves. 1
The Riding-School Lead
Each horse has a profile with a service history that can be shared with providers like farriers and vets, which is a real record rather than a whiteboard. We found no public information on structured feeding plans, vaccination or worming schedules with reminders, medication logs or an exportable horse file. 1
The Tax Adviser
Each horse has a profile with a service history that managers can share with providers, which is more than a name on a whiteboard. I found no public information on structured feeding plans, vaccination or medication logs, or any export of the file when the horse leaves. 1
The Skeptic
Each horse's profile carries a service history that can be shared with providers, which is a real record rather than a name on a whiteboard. We found no public information on structured feeding plans, vaccination or worming schedules, medication logs, farrier appointment reminders, or an export of the file when the horse leaves. 1
Staff, rotas & daily operations
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
The daily running of the yard: tasks and feeding rounds, shift and holiday planning, time recording for employees and mini-jobbers, help from boarders (Stalldienst), and reminders — and, where staff are clocked in by location, how that is done and documented.
0 — No staff or task features; the day is organised by phone and paper.
3 — A shared to-do list or chat, with no assignment, no recurrence and no record of who did what.
5 — Recurring tasks and rounds assigned to people with completion ticked on the phone, a shift plan, and reminders for due work.
8 — Time recording for employees that meets the minimum-wage and working-time documentation duties, holiday and absence planning, boarder duty rotas for self-care stables, completion history per task, and any location-based clock-in documented as opt-in with its purpose stated.
10 — Operations run and are evidenced in the system: rotas, time records and absences exported to payroll, permissions per role (owner, manager, groom, boarder), offline use in a barn without signal, and an audit trail answering who fed, medicated or turned out which horse when.
The Boarding-Stable Owner
Nothing in the captured material speaks to feeding rounds, recurring tasks, shift and holiday planning, or time recording for my grooms and mini-jobbers. I found no public information on any staff or daily-operations features at all, so the day would still run on paper and phone. 1
The Stable Manager
The pages are written for horse managers and service providers, and we found no public information on tasks or feeding rounds, rotas, holiday planning or time recording for grooms and mini-jobbers. For a yard's working day the public pages give me nothing to work with. 1
The Boarder
The captured pages describe horse managers and service providers coordinating services, and I found no public information on tasks, feeding rounds, shift and holiday planning, time recording for yard staff or boarder duty rotas. Nothing in the public description addresses how the daily running of the barn is organised or evidenced. 1
The Riding-School Lead
We found no public information on tasks and feeding rounds, shift or holiday planning, time recording for employees, boarder duty rotas or reminders — nothing to run a yard day on. 1
The Tax Adviser
We found no public information on tasks or feeding rounds, shift or holiday planning, or time recording for employees and mini-jobbers. For a yard with grooms there is nothing here that would stand up to a minimum-wage or working-time inspection. 1
The Skeptic
We found no public information on tasks, feeding rounds, shift or holiday planning, time recording, or any location-based clock-in and how it would be consented to. The captured pages describe coordination between horse managers and service providers, not the daily work of yard staff. 1
Boarder portal & communication
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
What the horse owner sees and does: their horse's records and the services billed to them, instructions to the stable, bookings, news from the yard — and how their personal data and their horse's data are scoped, so each owner sees their own horse and nothing else.
0 — No owner access; everything goes by WhatsApp, phone or a notice board.
3 — A group chat or news feed for the whole yard, with no per-owner view of their own horse or bill.
5 — Owner login showing their own horse's released records, logged services and invoices, with a way to send instructions or requests to the stable.
8 — Owners, co-owners and Reitbeteiligungen scoped separately with the stable deciding what is released, push notifications for due dates and charges, bookings and requests with status, and the privacy policy naming how owner data is processed.
10 — The portal replaces the phone calls: every record and charge an owner is entitled to see available on demand, instructions acknowledged by the staff member who reads them, owner data exportable and deletable on request, and roles that keep one boarder's data out of another's view by design.
The Boarding-Stable Owner
Horse managers get their own app view with their horse's service history, invoices and payments in one place, and can request and coordinate services from the app — that is the direction I want. I found no public information on separate scoping for co-owners and Reitbeteiligungen, push notifications for due dates and charges, or how owner data is processed in a privacy policy. 1
The Stable Manager
A horse manager logs in, sees their horse's service history, requests and coordinates services, and settles the invoice in the same place, with role switching for people who sit on both sides. The requests run to service providers rather than a stable, and we found no public information on how one owner's view is kept apart from another's, on co-owners or ride-shares, or on notifications. 1
The Boarder
An owner app pairs the horse's records, service history, invoices and payments with the ability to request services, and a rider who is both manager and provider can switch roles — so I could see my mare's file and what I was charged. Still, I found no public information on the stable deciding what gets released, on keeping one boarder's data out of another's view, or on my instructions being acknowledged by the person who reads them. 1
The Riding-School Lead
Horse managers get app access where they see their horse's service history, invoices and payments, request services from providers, and switch between manager and provider roles. We found no public information on how each owner's view is scoped from other owners', push notifications for due dates and charges, or how owner data is exported or deleted. 1
The Tax Adviser
Horse managers log in, see their horse's records, service history, invoices and payments, and send requests to service providers, with seamless switching for those who act as both manager and provider. I found no public information on how one owner's data is kept out of another's view, on co-owners or shares, or on what a privacy policy says about owner data. 1
The Skeptic
A manager side exists in the app: owners see their horse's records and service history, request and coordinate services, and handle invoices and payments, with role switching for people who are both manager and provider. We found no public information on how one owner's view is kept separate from another's, on co-owners or riding-share access, on push notifications, or on export and deletion of owner data. 1
Facilities, lessons & events
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
The yard's shared resources and teaching business: arena and indoor school bookings, horse walker, treadmill and solarium use, lessons and school horses, courses and clinics with registration and payment, guest boxes.
0 — No booking or lesson features.
3 — A shared calendar where anyone can type an entry, with no rules, no capacity and no link to billing.
5 — Arena and equipment booking with time slots and rules, lessons scheduled with riders and school horses, and courses with online registration.
8 — Bookings with capacity, closures and booking rules per user group, equipment use linked to billing or credit, lesson cards or subscriptions, school-horse workload tracked, and events with participant management and payment.
10 — The facility runs on the system: device integration (NFC, gates, walker or solarium controllers) recording use automatically, external riders and guests bookable with their own terms, lesson and course revenue flowing into the same accounts as board, and utilisation reported per facility.
The Boarding-Stable Owner
The captured pages are about coordinating farrier and braiding services, not the yard itself. I found no public information on arena or horse-walker booking, lessons and school horses, clinics with registration and payment, or guest boxes. 1
The Stable Manager
We found no public information on arena or equipment booking, lessons and school horses, or courses and clinics with registration. The services the vendor names — braiding, farrier, veterinary care — are tradespeople's work, not shared-yard resources. 1
The Boarder
I found no public information on arena or equipment bookings, lessons and school horses, courses and clinics with registration, or guest boxes. The captured description centres on services, records, invoices and payments, and gives no public information on the yard's shared facilities. 1
The Riding-School Lead
We found no public information on arena or equipment bookings, lessons with school horses, course or clinic registration and payment, ten-lesson cards or guest boxes — the very things my week is made of, and nothing here books a single slot. 1
The Tax Adviser
We found no public information on arena or equipment booking, lessons, school horses, courses or events. The services named are braiding, farrier and veterinary care, none of which is a facility or a teaching business. 1
The Skeptic
We found no public information on arena or equipment booking, lessons, school horses, courses or guest boxes. The captured pages describe services such as braiding, farrier and veterinary care and their payment, not the scheduling of shared facilities. 1
European sovereignty
panel opinion
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
Who the contracting entity and the parent company are, where boarder, staff and horse data are hosted, and who the subprocessors are (hosting, push notifications, payments, email). Independently sourced by the sovereignty pipeline; a phone app also sends data through the app-store and push providers, so the chain counts, not only the server.
0 — Non-EU vendor and contracting entity, hosting unstated, subprocessors unnamed, and no privacy policy that covers the app.
3 — A privacy policy exists, but hosting location is unstated or non-EU and the processors behind the app (analytics, push, payment) are not named.
5 — EU hosting stated and an EU contracting entity, but parts of the chain (push notifications, analytics, email, payment) run through non-EU providers without a stated safeguard.
8 — EU hosting on named infrastructure, EU contracting entity, subprocessors listed with locations, a data processing agreement offered to the stable for boarder and staff data, and location tracking of staff described with its legal basis.
10 — Sovereign end to end and evidenced: European ownership, entity, hosting and every subprocessor, data export and deletion documented, and a security or certification statement published rather than implied.
The Boarding-Stable Owner
No sovereignty attributes are on record: I found no public information on the contracting entity or a parent company, the hosting location for boarder, staff and horse data, the subprocessors behind hosting, push, payments and email, or a data processing agreement offered to the stable. With nothing to check against EU hosting or named processors, this scores at the bottom. 1
The Stable Manager
No sovereignty attributes are on record: we found no public information on the contracting entity or parent company, where boarder, staff and horse data are hosted, or which subprocessors sit behind hosting, push, payment or email. A phone app's chain matters as much as the server, and I cannot see any of it. 1
The Boarder
No sovereignty attributes are on record at all: hosting location, the contracting entity and the processors behind the app's payment and push chain are unstated in the captured pages, and I found no public information on a data processing agreement or a security statement. As a boarder who does not want other boarders or an analytics company reading her mare's file, I cannot tell from anything published where that data would sit or who touches it. 1
The Riding-School Lead
No sovereignty information is on record: we found no public statement of the contracting entity or parent company, hosting location, or the processors behind push, payment and email. With the entire chain unstated, including whether any privacy policy covers the app, I can only score near the bottom. 1
The Tax Adviser
No sovereignty attributes are on record: we found no public information on the contracting entity, hosting location, or the subprocessors behind payment and push notifications, and no privacy policy covering the app is evidenced. For boarder, staff and horse data the chain of custody cannot be assessed at all. 1
The Skeptic
No sovereignty attributes are on record: we found no public information naming a contracting entity or parent company, a hosting location, a single subprocessor, or a privacy policy covering the app — and a phone app's chain includes app-store and push providers on top of the server. An entirely unstated chain decides this score. 1
Pricing transparency
not rated — the vendor publishes no price
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
Whether a stable owner can compute the real annual cost from public pages alone: price per stable, box, horse or module, which modules (billing, staff, portal, devices) cost extra, setup fees, minimum term, and what happens to the data on cancellation.
0 — No public prices at all; every stable is a sales call.
3 — A starting price or "from" figure exists, but what is included and how it scales with horses or modules is unclear.
5 — Prices per tier or module are public with the main inclusions, but at least one commonly needed piece (billing, device integration, extra users, setup) is unpriced or "on request".
8 — Every tier and module priced publicly with its scaling rule (per box, horse or user), setup fees and add-ons listed, minimum term and VAT treatment stated.
10 — Complete price computability: annual cost derivable for a given yard size and module set, with every add-on, setup, hardware and support cost and the cancellation and data-return terms published.
The Boarding-Stable Owner
The captured pages show no prices at all — no per-horse or per-box figure, no module pricing for billing or the owner side, and nothing on setup fees, minimum term, VAT, or what happens to my data on cancellation. I cannot begin to compute what this would cost my forty boxes from public pages. 1
The Stable Manager
We found no public information on prices at all — no figure per horse, box or module, and no setup fee, minimum term or VAT statement. I cannot compute a year's cost for my yard from what is public. 1
The Boarder
I found no public prices at all — no per-horse, per-box or module figures, no setup fee, minimum term or VAT treatment — so no stable owner could compute an annual cost from the public pages, and I could not sanity-check what part of my bill is the software. Every engagement appears to be a conversation with the vendor. 1
The Riding-School Lead
We found no public prices at all — no per-horse or per-module figures, no setup fees, no minimum term, no cancellation or data-return terms. I cannot begin to compute an annual cost from what is published. 1
The Tax Adviser
No prices appear in the captured material — no per-horse or per-module figure, no term, no setup fee, no VAT treatment. A stable owner cannot compute even a starting annual cost from what is public. 1
The Skeptic
We found no public information on prices at all: no per-horse or module figures, no setup fee, no minimum term, no VAT statement, and nothing on data return on cancellation. A stable owner cannot compute any annual cost from the public pages. 1
