TSYS will provide its full suite of processing capabilities to NGCOA golf course owners and operators
COLUMBUS, Ga. and CHARLESTON, S.C., Aug. 16, 2017 – TSYS (NYSE: TSS) announced today that it has been named the official payment processing partner of the National Golf Course Owners Association (NGCOA). The not-for-profit organization is the only trade association dedicated exclusively to owners and operators of daily-fee, semi-private, private and resort golf courses.
With many members accepting electronic payments from customers booking tee times online or making onsite purchases, the NGCOA is encouraging its course owners and operators to speak with their software system representatives about integrating with TSYS, if the company has not already. TSYS’ payment platforms and functionalities can be integrated to most golf point-of-sale systems on the market today.
“We are very pleased to announce our commitment to provide the NGCOA and their members our full suite of processing capabilities,” said Mike Peters, president, commercial services of TSYS’ Merchant Services segment. “We are looking forward to working with golf course owners and operators over the coming years to help them fulfill their payment needs. In addition to that, we are excited to support the NGCOA and the important work they do for the golf industry.”
“The goal of this partnership is to provide golf course owners a reliable and reputable option for processing payments,” said Jay Karen, chief executive officer, NGCOA. “The NGCOA understands the challenges operators face in navigating the payment processing world and we’re proud to align with a company where we can work together for the benefit of the golf course owner.”
