CardsSafe Ltd. has a history of working with golf courses for over two decades.
The wireless system keeps bar tabs in the clubhouses professional and secure. It helps staff upsell and is a proven deterrent to dine-and-dash and chargebacks. CardsSafe is also a great solution in the pro shop, making hiring golf equipment easier to track and manage if lost or misplaced. Moreover, it increases trust between the venue and customers.
London Golf Club and CardsSafe
London Golf Club is one of the UK’s most prestigious golf clubs. It boasts 36 holes of Jack Nicklaus-designed championship golf, an award-winning clubhouse, and hospitality facilities. Located in the south-east of England, across 700 acres of idyllic Kent countryside, just 20 miles from London, LGC is the only Joint Venture Partner Golf Club of The European Tour and a part of the prestigious European Tour Properties network and IMG Prestige.
London Golf Club first installed the CardsSafe system in 2008, adding additional units in 2014 and again in 2020 to assist with customer golf equipment hires on the site. The catering staff also uses CardsSafe to serve golfers with food and drinks on the course.
How has CardsSafe helped London Golf Club?
With hundreds of weekly visitors, both club members and the wider public, CardsSafe has helped LGC store their customers’ bank cards securely while they hire golfing equipment or when eating and drinking in the clubhouse. The CardsSafe units are wireless and don’t need to be hardwired, which means that for some businesses, the mobility of the units makes it an adaptable solution for offering customers refreshments on the green. Grant Rumbelow, Food and Beverage Operations Manager, said, “CardsSafe has been a welcome addition to the London Golf Club. We utilise the system in our Golf Shop and Spike Bar and on-course with our Drinks Buggy. With CardsSafe, we can safely store customers’ cards while they enjoy their round of golf.”
