Why golf course operators are switching to Lightspeed Golf
Sync your online store with your pro shop
Unlike Tee-On, Lightspeed's complete omnichannel solution allows you build an online store that connects to your pro shop POS. You can then run and manage both stores from one centralized interface.
Reach more golfers and drive more revenue
More than a POS, Lightspeed Golf can help fuel growth. Access a suite of sales and marketing tools and CRM features to help you maximize revenue, create loyal customers and open new income streams.
Overhaul your course's food and beverage service
Unlike Tee-On's simple F&B module, Lightspeed gives you access to an industry-leading restaurant POS. Speed up service, manage your layout, keep your menu fresh and take food and beverage orders from anywhere.
Secure capital to invest in your business
Tee-On simply doesn’t support this. Lightspeed Capital provides you with additional cash flow for facility investments and expenses to help grow your business.
