LIGHTSPEED AND WHOOSH ANNOUNCE STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP TO ELEVATE PRIVATE GOLF CLUB OPERATIONS

Lightspeed Commerce Inc. has entered a strategic partnership with Whoosh, an industry leader in modern operations software.

This partnership reflects both companies' continued investment in the golf and club space, and their commitment to supporting operators that want to modernize their businesses with connected technology. By offering a fully unified platform across scheduling, payments and membership, Lightspeed and Whoosh are redefining what is possible for private clubs.

"By integrating Lightspeed with Whoosh's intuitive reservation and agenda tools, we're giving private club operators a powerful, seamless workflow that connects every touchpoint across the member journey," said Fraser Marriott, head of golf at Lightspeed. "It's a flexible, unified solution that will enhance the overall member experience."

As Whoosh's preferred membership management partner, Lightspeed will provide Whoosh users in the private club space its cloud-based point-of-sale (POS), payments and membership management technology directly integrated into their tee sheet, giving clubs an automated, real-time view of member activity across the facility. The results: an elevated customer service experience with no manual data imports, effectively creating a more streamlined operator experience.

"After surveying the space, it was clear that Lightspeed is the ideal private membership management partner for Whoosh," said Colin Read, chief executive officer and co-founder of Whoosh. "Together, our tools are a powerful combination, finally offering private facilities an integrated platform built to exceed today's operational expectations and future-proof the member experience."

A central feature of the partnership is Lightspeed Membership Management, a next-generation membership billing system, which enables clubs to centralize charges, set custom billing rules and access real-time insights.

Complementing Lightspeed, Whoosh's drag-and-drop agenda tools and customizable tee sheets support golf, racquets, simulators, events, fitness, dining and more. Members enjoy a frictionless digital booking experience, seeing real-time availability, automated restrictions, weather updates and direct messaging through their mobile app.

Joint customers also have access to a robust partner ecosystem, offering more custom solutions to private club operators. Paired with Lightspeed Payments and reporting infrastructure, staff get instant access to member profiles, booking preferences and spending habits, allowing them to deliver truly personalized service at every touchpoint.
