Global commerce leader brings its fully integrated golf course management software to Landscapes Golf Management as it adapts to new consumer demands and the need for digital touch-points
Montreal, QC – Today, Lightspeed announces that it has been selected by Landscapes Golf Managementas the cloud-based commerce software that will power 30 of its prestigious golf courses in the U.S. As one of the largest golf management organizations in the world with over 40 years in business, Landscapes Golf Management recognizes the benefits of managing all facets of its business in one simplified system, including its pro shops, clubhouses and golf courses. The golf leader adds Lightspeed’s solutions, including robust APIs, to an existing technology stack during a time of rapid digital transformation within the industry.
