Rewards program
A rewards program that only pays off when they book direct.
Golfers earn Tokens on tee times booked through your own site and spend them on rewards you set up. You decide how generous it is, and what the program owes is a number you can look up. U.S. based people to call when you have a question.
The problem
Where this usually falls apart.
Not because anyone is doing it wrong, but because the pieces were never designed to share a database.
- The loyalty program is a punch card in a golfer wallet, and a lost card is an argument at the counter.
- The rewards that do exist belong to a marketplace, and they bring the golfer back to the marketplace rather than to your site.
- A standalone loyalty app is a second system with a second list of golfers, and it cannot see what the golfer actually spent.
- Nobody can say what the program owes until golfers start redeeming.
- The program rewards whoever books the most, and quietly ignores the golfer who brings three friends every time.
Capabilities
What the rewards program includes.
Golfers earn on your site, not on a marketplace
Tokens are earned on tee times booked through your own site, which makes booking direct the cheaper choice for the golfer rather than a favor they do you.
You set what a dollar earns
How generous the program is stays your decision, not a vendor default you cannot reach.
A Token is worth the same thing every time
A staff member can answer "what are these worth" right at the counter.
Earning is scoped to the round itself
Every Token a golfer earns traces back to real revenue from the round.
A signup bonus, if you want one
Joining can hand a golfer a starting balance, which gives the front desk a concrete reason to ask.
You decide when Tokens expire
A regular keeps their balance for as long as they keep playing.
One program across the whole club
On a property with more than one course, a golfer carries one balance rather than one per gate.
The outstanding balance is priced on screen
The program is a number you can look up rather than a liability you discover.
You decide what Tokens buy
Golfers spend Tokens on the rewards you set up. The program is a currency your course issues.
Know your MAKERs
MAKERs are the golfers who fill your tee times, and the Tee Time MAKER Report tells you who they are.
It has an off switch
Set the program up, look at the numbers, and turn it on when you are ready.
An add-on, posted on the rate card
The Rewards Program is an optional module on top of the base tee sheet plan, from $19 a month, posted on the pricing page like everything else.
How it works
How the program runs.
-
You set the give
Pick what a dollar earns and whether joining comes with a bonus.
-
A golfer joins at the counter or on your site
From that point they are a golfer with a balance rather than a name on a list.
-
They book direct and earn
Tee times booked through your own site add Tokens to their balance.
-
They spend Tokens on what you offer
Redemption comes out of the rewards you set up, so the give stays inside the things you actually want to move.
-
You watch the balance and the Makers
You see what the program owes, and the Tee Time MAKER Report tells you which golfers are filling your tee sheet.
Connected by design
Rewards Program does not run on its own.
Every module writes to the same database, so none of these hand copies to each other.

What operators say
Golf course operators who run TeeWire, in their own words.
TeeWire has been a great experience for our golf course. We joined during the pandemic, and it’s made a huge difference. Very easy to use for our staff and our golfers and customer service is always there for any questions we may have. Highly recommended.
