Choosing a Golf Event Registration Tool

There are many websites and tools out there that help organizing and manage your golf tournament or event. So how do you know your choosing the right one? Here are a few helpful thoughts to consider.

  1. Cost – While this seems obvious, so many people will choose a product thinking that if it costs more, it must be better. This isn’t always the case. eGolfEvent.com is only $150!
  2. Online Payments – What’s the point of using an online solution if you can’t accept payments through the website? eGolfEvent makes this simple. We don’t accept your payments. We just provide the API access for you to use your own payment processor or bank account. This way your money goes directly to you. You can use Paypal, Authorize.net or PayPal PayFlow Pro solutions.
  3. Sponsorships – Most golf tournaments have sponsors. Whether its hole sponsorships, event sponsorships, choose a tool that allows your sponsors to sign up easily and quickly online.
  4. Reporting – It’s important to find a tool that allows you to view reports of individuals or groups that have registered. Allowing you to easily correspond with them via email directly through the tool. Eliminating the need to use another tool or application.
  5. Event Recap – Everyone likes to see pictures of themselves and family. Does the tool you’re researching allow you to create a web page that includes event results and a full photo gallery? Make sure it does.
