Updated October 2026. Supplier websites checked on 8 October 2026.
You're looking for golf club booking software, and you've noticed that almost no UK supplier will tell you what it costs until you've sat through a demo. We checked BRS Golf, ClubV1, intelligentgolf and Golfmanager this week: none of them publishes a price. This guide sets out what the software has to do for a UK club, what it costs, and the seven questions that get you a straight answer from any supplier, including us.
Put everyone on one tee sheet
A UK club sells the same 7:30 to four kinds of golfer: members, members' guests, visitors and societies. Some book online, some ring the shop, some walk in with clubs on their shoulder. If those bookings land in different places, someone reconciles them at the end of the day, and sooner or later two groups turn up for the same time.
The software has to hold all of it on one tee sheet. In Tuvabook, members book in the app, visitors book on your website, and your team takes phone and walk-in bookings from the dashboard, all into the same tee sheet. A tee time locks the moment it's confirmed, so two people can't take it, even if they tap Book in the same second.
Take payment when the golfer books
A visitor who has paid turns up. A visitor who hasn't is a phone number and a hope. The software has to take the green fee at the moment of booking, make it easy for golfers, and keep it fair to members.
In Tuvabook, golfers pay in full when they book, with Apple Pay, Google Pay or a card, through Stripe. The money goes into your club's own account, and we never hold it. A visitor who doesn't turn up has already paid. Desk bookings get three choices under New booking: pay on arrival, send a payment link, or mark it paid externally if they've paid at the counter.
Members don't have to pay anything extra for this. Tick Green fees included on a membership category and their rounds show as "Included with your membership" at checkout. Set separate member and visitor prices with rate rules for Members only and Visitors only. We've written up how to bring in payment at booking without upsetting members, setting by setting.
Give members an app with your name on it
Members book from their phones now, so the app they open says something about who runs the club. Some systems put members in the supplier's app, under the supplier's name. At ClubV1 clubs, that app has carried a charge since January 2026 (more on that below).
Tuvabook gives your club its own app on the App Store and Google Play, with your name, your crest and your colours, plus a booking widget for your website. Members book in a few taps inside the member-only window you set, and move or cancel their own bookings inside the rules you choose. Members who'd rather not download anything can book on your website instead. We've written up what members notice when the app carries the club's name rather than a supplier's.
Run memberships, subs and applications in the same place
Subs are the biggest money moment of the year, and at plenty of clubs they still arrive as cheques and bank transfers in a spreadsheet. The booking software should know who's a member, what their category includes and when they renew.
In Tuvabook, you build your categories (full, country, junior, whatever your club uses), each with its own price, guest passes and priority booking window. Members join and pay in the app, and renewals bill automatically on the date you set. For categories that need committee sign-off, golfers apply with documents attached and you approve or decline from the dashboard. They pay only once you've said yes. The whole renewal, category by category, is in membership renewals in your club's own app.
Run competitions, society days and lessons from the tee sheet
Competitions, society days and the pro's diary all need tee times, so they belong on the same system.
- Competitions. Strokeplay, Stableford, matchplay and team formats, with entries, the draw, live scoring on members' phones and a live leaderboard, and playing handicaps worked out for you. Set handicap limits under Advanced and split the field into divisions by handicap.
- Society days. Choose Society day as the event type, add the organiser, catering and dress code, and take paid sign-up with one entry list. The money's in before the first minibus arrives, and golf society bookings, paid up front walks through the whole routine.
- Lessons. Members book the pro's open times and pay for a single lesson or a package up front.
Know which of three things you're buying
Suppliers use "tee sheet", "booking engine" and "marketplace" loosely, and they're three different things.
A tee sheet is the record of who plays when. ClubV1 and intelligentgolf sell one alongside membership and competition management, and Golfmanager sells it as one module among several, from restaurant to pro shop.
A booking engine is the screen a golfer books on: your app, your website. It writes to the tee sheet.
A marketplace lists your tee times next to other courses' times, under its own name. GolfNow is one, and the BRS Golf app on the App Store is sold by GolfNow.com.
You need the first two working as one. A marketplace is a sales channel you can add or leave alone, and you should know whether your tee sheet comes with one attached.
What it costs in the UK
Here's what each supplier published on its own website on 8 October 2026.
| Supplier | Published price | What the website asks you to do |
|---|---|---|
| BRS Golf | None | Request a demo or contact |
| ClubV1 (Club Systems) | None | Contact sales |
| intelligentgolf | None | Talk to an expert |
| Golfmanager | None | Get a quote |
| Tuvabook | £149 a month for a single club | Read it on our pricing page |
Without a published price, you find out the cost late, after the demo, when the committee has already seen the screens it likes. Two costs are worth asking about by name.
The member app charge. Since January 2026, ClubV1 members need the new HowDidiDo app, which costs £2.99 a year with adverts or £9.99 without, or the club pays £1,400 a year to cover everyone (Club Systems calls that a limited time offer). intelligentgolf clubs are moving to the same app. We've costed the HowDidiDo charge for clubs of 400, 600 and 800 members.
Tee times as payment. Clubs using BRS Golf report that the free tier is paid for with tee times the club gives up to GolfNow to sell. BRS's own website doesn't mention it, so check your contract for a tee time commitment before you do any sums. A fourball a day is a lot of green fees across a season.
Tuvabook is £149 a month for a single club, with no setup fee, and golfers never pay a booking fee. No tee times taken as payment, and no charge to members for the app.
Seven questions to ask any supplier
Put these in writing before the demo, and ask for the answers in writing too. Here are ours.
- What does the plan cost each year? £149 a month for a single club, on our pricing page for anyone to read.
- Is there a setup fee? No.
- Do you take any of our tee times as part of the price? No. Every tee time on your sheet stays yours to sell at your price.
- Do golfers pay a booking fee? Never. The price your golfer sees is the price they pay.
- Whose name is on the members' app? Yours, with your crest and colours, on the App Store and Google Play.
- Where does the green fee money go? Stripe pays it straight into your club's own account.
- How long until we're live, and who moves our data? Three weeks from signing, and we move your tee sheet, prices and members across for you.
If a supplier can't answer the first question on the phone, that's an answer too.
Choose Tuvabook for your own app and a price you can read
If your club wants its own app, payment at booking and a price the committee can read before the meeting, choose Tuvabook. It's £149 a month for a single club, with no setup fee, and you're live in three weeks. We move your tee sheet, prices and members across for you, and we're a UK team you can email or ring.
The timing is in your favour too. Switching over the winter lands the new system before the first busy Saturday, and we've written up how to switch tee sheet software over the winter week by week.
Your next step
Send us your current supplier and roughly what you pay, and we'll send back a one-page comparison your committee can read in two minutes. Or book a 30-minute demo and we'll show you the app with your club's name already on it. If the committee wants answers first, your 20 questions about Tuvabook, answered covers the ones we hear most.
If you're already on one of the big three, we've compared them row by row: Tuvabook beside BRS Golf, ClubV1 and intelligentgolf, and the alternatives to BRS Golf for UK clubs.
Common questions
How much does golf club booking software cost in the UK?
The big UK suppliers don't publish a price. On 8 October 2026, BRS Golf, ClubV1, intelligentgolf and Golfmanager all asked clubs to get in touch for one. Tuvabook is £149 a month for a single club, with no setup fee.
Can the pro shop still take phone and walk-in bookings?
Yes. Staff book for any golfer from the dashboard, on the same tee sheet as online bookings, and choose pay on arrival, a payment link, or paid at the counter.
Do members have to download an app?
No. Your club gets its own app on iOS and Android, and anyone can book on your website instead. Both feed the same tee sheet.
Who owns our data if we leave?
You do. Export your members and bookings whenever you like, and take them with you.
How long does it take to move to Tuvabook?
Three weeks from signing to taking real bookings. We move your courses, tee time structure, prices and member list across, and you check everything over before go-live.
