CardsSafe continues to support golf courses

CardsSafe remains one of the most affordable ways to help golf courses protect their rentals in the pro shop and up-sell on-site by offering a secure and trusted way to operate customers’ clubhouse tabs.

Over 20 years ago, the CardsSafe system was designed to securely retain customer credit, debit and ID cards while the cardholder runs a tab. The design team wanted to create a simple, affordable and effective system that did not capture data but did allow staff to up-sell, protect bank cards from fraud and give customers extra peace of mind that their cards were held securely while they ran a tab or rented goods. As a result, golf course managers can maximise profit, increase spending, and reduce losses.

Two decades later, over 5,000 UK venues trust the CardsSafe system, including Young’s Pubs, Hilton Hotels, Lord’s Cricket Ground and many restaurants and bars. Golf courses, too, benefit from using CardsSafe with their golfing equipment hires and in clubhouses. CardsSafe is utilised by golf clubs nationwide, like Foxhills, Silvermere, The London Golf Club and Redlibbets, and the demand is increasing.

Silvermere, a unique golfing complex designed for everyone and one of the most accessible golf centres in southeast England, offers a Par-71 course spanning dense woodland, open parkland and a lake. They first installed the CardsSafe system in 2015 to assist with their customer hires, with additional units added later after positive feedback from customers. Manager Dani explains, “CardsSafe has allowed us to safely retain customers’ cards while they trial equipment on the driving range. We can trust CardsSafe and efficiently replace any faulty or lost components.”
