18Birdies – creator of the fastest growing consumer golf app – expands its mobile golf marketplace to include in-app tee time booking by featuring tee times from EZLinks Golf platform, TeeOff.com by PGA TOUR, the official tee time reservation site of the PGA TOUR.
Beginning in Spring 2019, 18Birdies’ 1.5 million users will be able to book TeeOff.com tee times at more than 3,000 golf courses from the convenience of the 18Birdies app. By collaborating with TeeOff, 18Birdies provides golfers with access to book tee times quickly and easily using the 18Birdies mobile technology.
Marketing and selling tee times is the cornerstone in 18Birdies’ strategy to create the first mobile marketplace in golf, providing consumers with access to a wide variety of products and services that can be purchased through the app.
“The 18Birdies app already delivers best-in-class on-course tools and innovative social features. We are now offering golfers a simple, mobile booking experience so they have an easy way to book tee times at the courses they play every day,” says Eddy Lui, CEO and Founder, 18Birdies. “The collaboration with EZLinks and TeeOff allows us to provide our customers with access to some of the best public courses in the country.”
