Mobile Check-In simplifies the process of checking in and paying for a round of golf, freeing up pro shop staff to focus on other duties. It integrates fully with your point-of-sale software and payment processor to charge for the round of golf, collect information on those checking in, and update your tee sheet accordingly.

A message that you can designate with next steps (pick up cart keys in the pro shop, etc.)

Please click the video below for a tutorial of the steps outlined above:
What point-of-sale partners are you currently integrated with?
We are currently integrated with Club Prophet Systems, with more integrations on the way.
Can I designate how long a user has before the tee time to check-in?
Yes. We are able to designate the number of days, hours, and even minutes in advance of a tee time that users of your app can check-in.
How can I communicate to users arriving to the course that they can check-in through the app?
There are several methodologies on promoting your new mobile check-in feature, but here are a few of the most used:
Set up a Welcome Geofence with the Action as Go To App Page --> Check In.
Add a link to download your app on your booking confirmation emails (which can be done through your booking engine provider).
Need some promo materials? Click here to view the Promote page of your Gallus admin dashboard.
Print out some posters to put in front of your facilitiy and in the pro shop.
Add a separate Express Lane to your pro shop that is reserved for users that have checked into their app. This is a great way to issue out cart keys or encourage last-minute purchases!
How can I communicate next steps after a user has checked in?
We have the ability to display a short message at the end of the check-in process that contains whatever copy you'd like. Some examples:
Thanks for checking in through our app! Please arrive at the first tee five minutes before your tee time.
Thanks for checking in through our app! Please visit our pro shop to purchase a sleeve of golf balls, a hat, or a bucket of range balls.
You're all checked in! Please proceed to the Express Line in our pro shop to pick up your cart keys.
