BRSGolfvsClubV1

BRS Golf is one of the biggest tee-sheet names in UK and Irish golf, owned by GolfNow, now part of the US media group Versant. Golfers often rate its tee booking as the best of the incumbents. It comes with the GolfNow marketplace that can sell your spare visitor tee times, for a commission or a share of your inventory.

ClubV1, made by Club Systems, comes at it from membership. It is deep on subscriptions and competitions, and its HowDidiDo network reaches a very large number of golfers. It is also a sprawl of brands: ClubV1, Club Systems, HowDidiDo, CloudPOS and ClearAccept. Since 2022 it has been owned by ClearCourse, a private-equity-backed software and payments group that also owns IntelligentGolf.

Both are demo-gated and sit inside larger corporate groups. If you want a third option that publishes its pricing and keeps everything on one login, here is how all three line up.

Choose BRS if visitor green fees drive your club and you want the sharpest tee-booking experience. You also value the GolfNow marketplace filling quiet tee times, marketplace commission and all.

Choose ClubV1 if deep membership administration and competitions are the centre of your club, and the HowDidiDo golfer network matters to your members. Just know you are buying into a group of brands owned by a private-equity-backed company.

Choose Golf Club Software if you want booking, green fees, payments and membership to be simple and openly priced, on one login, from an independent UK company. You are happy to keep a dedicated handicapping system alongside.
