Whoosh alternative

The all-in-one alternative to Whoosh

Whoosh is a genuinely modern, tablet-first platform that arrived in 2022, with a slick member booking app, real-time waitlists, and AI dynamic pricing. It is well-built and clubs like it. Where Whoosh prices by module and leans on partners (Golf Genius for tournaments, Square for payments), Links Meridian includes the whole operation, competitions, POS, accounting, and community, in every tier.

Whoosh gets the modern operations experience right: untethered, tablet-centric staff tools and a member booking app that genuinely reduces pro-shop calls. Its model is modular, so you pay for the tools you need and connect partners for the rest.

Links Meridian is the integrated counterpart: competitions and live scoring on the tee sheet (no separate Golf Genius licence required), a unified pro shop and F&B POS, a full accounting general ledger, and the Digital Clubhouse member community, all included rather than added by module or partner. Both are modern; the difference is how much is built in and whether pricing is published.

Why it matters

The outcome for your club

Competitions built in

Medal, Stableford, fourball, match play, and more with live scoring on the tee sheet. No separate tournament licence to add.

Full accounting and unified POS

A double-entry GL with reconciliation plus one POS for pro shop and full F&B, not just counter payments through a partner.

The Digital Clubhouse

A native member community: feed, Course Records, the Honours Board, and season standings, on top of booking.

Every feature included

One published price from $99/month with the full platform, instead of paying per module.

Common questions

Is Whoosh good software?

Yes. Whoosh is a modern, cloud, tablet-first operations platform with a strong member booking app and AI dynamic pricing, used at a growing number of public and private clubs. Links Meridian competes by including competitions, POS, accounting, and a member community in every tier rather than by module or partner.

Does Whoosh include tournaments and accounting?

Whoosh integrates with Golf Genius for tournaments and partners with Square for payments, and its pricing is module-based. Links Meridian builds competitions, a unified pro shop and F&B POS, and a full accounting general ledger into the platform itself.

How does pricing compare?

Whoosh charges per module. Links Meridian publishes flat tiers from $99/month with every feature included, so the price does not climb as you add capabilities.

Can we migrate from Whoosh?

Yes. We import members, tee-sheet history, future bookings, and payment records, run both systems in parallel during cutover, and the trial does not start until you go live.

Modern, and all in one place

Everything Whoosh does, plus built-in competitions, accounting, and community. One published price.
