BRS Golf vs Links Meridian

BRS Golf’s BRS Core brings tee-time booking, payments, point of sale and membership controls into one operations platform for golf clubs. Its cloud-based tee sheet works from any device and includes more than 50 management reports and over 400 system configurations. Members can book casual and competition times through a responsive website or companion iPhone and Android app. A selected time is held for three minutes, and members can join waiting lists for busy competitions. Point-of-sale tools support member and visitor pricing, member wallet payments, and food-and-beverage orders sent from an iPad app to the bar or kitchen. BRS Payments handles online bills and green fees, phone card payments through a virtual terminal, emailed payment links and refunds, with seven-day bank payouts. The competition system integrates with the World Handicap System and syncs with booking channels. Integrations include GolfNow, Golf Genius, HandicapMaster and Club Systems. BRS Core is paid, with pricing available on request.

Links Meridian combines golf tee-sheet booking, member management, point of sale, accounting, and a Digital Clubhouse in one platform. The booking tools support online reservations, lotteries, waitlists, dynamic pricing, and shotgun or two-tee formats. Its POS covers pro shop and food and beverage sales, with gift cards, floor plans, kitchen display, and charges to member accounts. The Digital Clubhouse provides a club-branded feed, member directory, announcements, competitions, leaderboards, and an Honours Board. The platform also describes an AI Concierge for member bookings and marketing and operations agents with approval controls for specified actions. Live payment options include cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and card readers, with payouts routed to the club’s own account. QuickBooks Online and Xero journal exports are listed as live; GoCardless, Sage, handicap sync, a public API, webhooks, and Zapier are roadmap items. Links Meridian is available on Android, iOS, and the web. Starter costs $79/mo billed annually, or $99/mo month-to-month, for up to 500 member profiles.
