Your Golf Booking launches POS system for ranges and courses

Historically, managing a driving range has been no walk in the park. With multiple systems that require individual management, a driving range can often be a time-consuming task. Your Golf Booking has seen this challenge and has developed a fully integrated POS system that could mean waving goodbye to multiple systems and winning back time for driving ranges and golf courses worldwide.

The YGB POS system is jam-packed with features, functions, and innovative options – it’s a challenge to know where to begin. From simple to use layout functions with multiple capabilities to direct integrations with multiple payment providers including Square, Stripe and their own interesting white-labelled solution.

YGB’s POS is built into the same innovative booking engine that’s been featured in the past, meaning a single system to manage everything from real-time driving range bookings, tee-sheets, Pro Shop sales and even Restaurant and Reception orders.

Amongst the new features is a clever tabbing system to add upsells to existing bookings, and an easy-to-use editor to customise the layouts used for each part of the business. As a mobile friendly system, staff can head out to meet and take payments from your customers on-site – they no longer have to come to you. You get all the functionality as if you were sat in front of your till, even tabs and payment splitting.

For the payment processors YGB is directly integrated with, they’ve added the ability to automatically pre-load payment terminals and avoid keying values. Just press charge and the terminal lights up ready to take payment. No more human error, saving valuable staff time and effort. There’s also a built-in option to email receipts to customers and avoid wasting till roll.

Because everything is in the same YGB ecosystem, customers can use their loyalty balance/rangecards to pay for whatever the venue operator allows them to. Staff can also sell top-ups for those balances straight from the same POS system in-venue.

Price is the only question remaining, and YGB have taken a different approach there too. They’re only billing once per venue, not per user or per till. At £59/month it’s undercutting quite a few of the other providers on the market.

YGB state this about its approach to the POS and its other systems: “Its speed and flexibility have been a massive plus for the nearly 100 golf venues globally who’ve already adopted the system in the last 18months. The goal is to create a modern and simplistic platform that is cost-effective and removes the challenge all facilities face daily. With advanced inventory management, staff attribution and preauthorisation of cards yet to come in POS this year, we’re aren’t planning on slowing down.”

What’s in store for the future of Your Golf Booking?

The future of YGB is looking bright with some exciting developments in the works. Things to come include: self-service check-in terminals, memberships V2, with automated sign-ups and subscriptions, party and events planning and an all new Academy Management System.
