For daily-fee courses

Daily-fee operations, professionally run

Online booking on your domain, branded to your course. Dynamic pricing that responds to demand. Lottery and waitlist for peak times. Integrated pro shop POS. Real-time staff updates so a Saturday morning rush does not derail the operation.

Daily-fee courses live or die on volume. The tee sheet has to handle a hundred bookings a day across multiple price tiers, weather variability, walk-ups, and pre-paid online golfers, all without staff stepping on each other. Most off-the-shelf booking widgets handle the easy days. They fall apart on the busy ones.

Links Meridian was built for both ends of the spectrum. Online booking is fast, mobile-first, and lives on your domain so customers know they are dealing with you, not with a third-party marketplace. Dynamic pricing rules adjust by time of day, day of week, weather forecast, and live occupancy, and they enforce automatically. The lottery system runs draws for peak times so you do not lose Saturday tee sheets to bots and resellers.

Behind the booking page, the staff tools are built for a Saturday morning rush. The visual tee sheet runs over a real-time WebSocket layer so every device sees every change instantly. Drag-and-drop reassignment, frost delay shifts, walk-up additions, and rain-check redemptions all happen in seconds. Pro shop POS, gift cards, and accounting are integrated, so end-of-day reconciliation runs itself.

Questions

Common questions

We currently use GolfNow. What changes?

You stop trading tee times for software. Bookings come through your own domain instead of a marketplace, you keep 100% of the revenue, and your customer data is yours. We migrate future bookings, run both systems in parallel during cutover, and help you set up direct booking traffic. See our GolfNow alternative page for the full breakdown.

Can we accept walk-ups and online bookings on the same tee sheet?

Yes. Every booking flows through the same data model, whether it is online, by phone, or a walk-up. Staff see all of them on the same visual tee sheet. Walk-ups can pay by card, cash, or rain check at the pro shop POS.

How does dynamic pricing actually work?

You set rules: weekday vs weekend, time-of-day bands, weather adjustments, occupancy-based surcharges or discounts. The platform applies them automatically. You can also override pricing on specific slots manually for tournaments or events. The pricing engine recommends adjustments based on real demand. You stay in control.

Will my staff need training?

Most pro shop staff are productive within an hour. The visual tee sheet behaves the way they expect (drag-and-drop, real-time updates, no awkward forms), and the POS workflows are designed for retail and golf operations specifically. Full-team training takes a day or two for most clubs.

What about the busy Saturday morning rush?

The platform targets sub-second p95 page loads and 99.95% monthly uptime. The tee sheet runs over a real-time WebSocket layer so staff devices stay in sync without polling. Stress-tested for the Saturday morning case from day one.
