Should Merchant Processors Control Your Golf Management Software?
Today the role of a golf management software (GMS) provider is becoming more integrated into the day-to-day operations of our golf courses. Not so many years ago, an owner or operator would purchase their point-of-sale (POS) system from one company and website design and management from another. Another company provided merchant processor (MP) services. Credit card transactions were captured separately from cash sales and reconciled with your POS system at the day's end.

Article Submissions

If you feel that your company provides a service or product that would be of interest to our readers-one that is designed to help golf course operators run their businesses more profitably or efficiently-you are welcome to pitch the idea to the editor. Doing so does not indicate a promise or intent to profile the company/product; rather, it means the editor will simply review the pitch. If the editor determines a person, product or service is worthy to be profiled in Golf Business, he will commission a freelance writer to interview sources and write the story. All articles will be written from the course operator's perspective.

We encourage you to review our full editorial policy.
For questions or to submit an idea for consideration, contact Dave Barton, Editor-in-Chief & Director of Education, at dbarton@ngcoa.org.
