(New York, NY) – Market leaders from the technology and travel sectors, VPAR and Your Golf Travel, have joined forces for a partnership in 2015.
Hundreds of thousands of rounds are played each year by Your Golf Travel clients at courses across the globe. By working with VPAR – recently named “Best Sports App” at the 2014 Sports Technology Awards – their customers can now add cutting-edge live scoring and on-course GPS to their experience.
A year’s free subscription to VPAR costs $8.99 per person but is free to Your Golf Travel consumers for booking YGT trips.
Using VPAR technology, the partners will undertake a number of other initiatives including a ground-breaking joint campaign that will run throughout the summer season.
“The VPAR app live-scoring element perfectly complements and adds value to trips taken by Your Golf Travel customers,” said VPAR Managing Director Jason Stoop. “Their golf excursions will take on new dimensions, with full GPS, stats tracking, course directory and social sharing capabilities – all in the palm of their hand.”
Your Golf Travel values how VPAR enables it to better manage its client relationships while simultaneously enhancing their playing experience.
“It’s really important to us that we can stay in touch with our clients while they are in destination, and with VPAR we can go a step further by communicating with them while they’re actually on course,” said Your Golf Travel’s Euan Gillon, Director of Marketing and Strategy.
