The MemberSports booking engine takes a different approach than most when it comes to golfer accounts and booking tee times at a golf course. MemberSports is built for the golfer to use the same name, phone number and email address for login purposes whenever booking at a golf course that uses MemberSports.
The booking flow is fast with minimal clicks. The booker is given the option to share the booking with others in their group for individual pre-payment. MemberSports calls this feature Self-Pay and it's a feature well beyond their competitors.
The look and feel of the booking experience could be enhanced through golf course branded coloring. We experienced some challenges with resetting passwords and/or creating an account with a mobile number already in use with an account at a different golf course and the playing invitation options exposed us to several people who have previously booked the golf course.
Ensuring your booking engine offers a seamless experience for golfers and simplicity for your staff is crucial. With a plethora of features to assess, we've highlighted nearly 20 key aspects here to guide your decision. Imagine booking a flight or hotel—speed, simplicity, and reliability are likely what you seek and your golf course business and golfers will be well served when you provide a tee time booking engine that does the same.
Selecting a booking engine involves evaluating numerous features, nearly 20 of which are crucial. However, if narrowed down, SPEED and ACCURACY emerge as fundamental, encompassing most features. An unexpected yet vital third aspect is SHAREABILITY. Considering the popularity of social sharing and individual prepayments, as facilitated by MemberSports, its importance is set to rise within the next 12-24 months. Golf course operators should prioritize these features, focusing on what enhances their business and meets their needs.
