Frequently Asked Question

General Question

Learn the basics of Fairway Control and get answers to the most common questions new clubs ask.
How Is Fairway Control Different From Other Golf Management Systems?

Fairway Control is built from the ground up specifically for golf courses and clubs, offering one platform that unifies every aspect of your operations. Instead of juggling multiple tools for tee sheets, point of sale, memberships, maintenance, and events, everything is connected in real time. This integrated design reduces errors, saves hours of manual work, and provides clearer visibility into your business. Where other systems piece together separate software with limited compatibility, Fairway Control delivers a streamlined, all-in-one solution that feels intuitive for staff and reliable for management. The result is a smoother operation, happier players, and more confident decision-making.

Do I Need to Download or Install Software to Use Fairway Control?

No. Fairway Control is a fully cloud-based platform that runs directly in your browser. There’s nothing to install or update, and you can securely log in from any device, including desktops, laptops, tablets, and smartphones. This flexibility makes it easy for managers to stay connected on the go and for staff to use the system wherever they are on the course. Automatic updates also mean you’re always using the latest version of the software without having to worry about downtime or maintenance.

Does Fairway Control Support Online Booking for Players?

Yes. Our online booking feature lets players reserve tee times directly from your website or a custom booking link. Bookings sync instantly with your tee sheet so staff always have an up-to-date view, reducing double bookings and phone calls.

Does Fairway Control Work on Mobile Devices?

Yes. The platform is fully responsive and optimized for mobile, so it works seamlessly on tablets and smartphones. Managers can check reports on the go, while staff can access tee sheets, process payments, or update tasks right from their phones out on the course.

Pricing & Billing

Understand how our monthly billing works and how to manage your account with ease.
Are There Long-Term Commitments With Fairway Control?

No. Fairway Control is offered as a month-to-month service, so you’ll never be locked into a long contract. We believe the best way to earn your business is through performance, not paperwork. This flexible approach means you can start with confidence, scale as you grow, and always have the freedom to make the best decision for your club without worrying about hidden obligations or cancellation penalties.

Do We Need Hardware to Process Payments With Fairway Control?

Yes. To process in-person payments, Fairway Control requires our certified payment hardware, which is programmed and integrated specifically for your account. We provide two options: the Verifone T650p mobile device for on-the-go payments and the Verifone M440 countertop device for fixed locations like the pro shop or restaurant. These devices connect directly with our POS, tee sheet, and food and beverage modules, ensuring that every transaction is secure, accurate, and automatically recorded in your system. Hardware must be purchased directly from Fairway Control so we can configure it properly and guarantee a seamless payment experience across your operations.

How Are Payments Processed for Our Subscription?

Your subscription is billed automatically each month using the credit card you have on file. This ensures uninterrupted access to Fairway Control and eliminates the need to manually pay invoices. You’ll receive an email confirmation each time your card is charged.

Can We Receive a Yearly Plan Instead of Monthly Billing?

Yes. Annual billing is available and can save your club money compared to month-to-month service. Simply contact our team, and we can switch your account to yearly billing with a single upfront payment for the full term.

Help & Support

From onboarding to troubleshooting, we’re here to keep your operations running smoothly.
Can We Migrate Our Existing Data Into Fairway Control?

Yes. Our onboarding team manages the entire data migration process for you, so you don’t have to worry about technical details. As long as your information is stored in a supported format (.csv, .xls, or .xlsx), we can securely transfer everything into Fairway Control. This includes member records, tee sheet data, billing details, and more. We ensure your data is mapped correctly and tested thoroughly so your team can pick up right where you left off with no disruptions to daily operations.

Is Training and Ongoing Support Included?

Yes. Every new customer receives full onboarding and guided training designed to get your staff comfortable with the system quickly. Our team works alongside yours to set up workflows, answer questions, and make sure Fairway Control is tailored to your course’s needs. After onboarding, you’ll continue to receive unlimited support at no extra cost. Whether it’s a quick question during a busy shift or deeper assistance with a new feature, our support team is always available to keep your operations running smoothly.

How Long Does the Onboarding Process Take?

Most clubs are fully onboarded within 2–4 weeks, depending on how much data needs to be migrated and how quickly we receive it. Our team works closely with you to keep the timeline on track so you can start using Fairway Control as soon as possible.

Do You Offer Emergency Support Outside Normal Hours?

Yes. In addition to standard business-hour support, we offer after-hours emergency assistance for critical issues affecting your operations. This ensures you always have help available, even during tournaments, events, or busy weekends.
