The platform is also a powerful tool for golf course operators to help build guest loyalty, and potentially increase course revenue and lower operating costs. The platform is specifically designed to promote interaction between the golfer and the device throughout their round, providing an opportunity for golf course operators and advertisers to interact directly with golfers in ways that have never been possible before.
Digital Caddies has already installed The Player’s Network on many courses in Arizona, California, South Carolina, Nevada and Florida and recently signed agreements Sprint, Samsung as well some leading golf management companies such as Troon Golf Management, OB Sports and National Golf Management who collectively manage over 250 golf courses.
