Identity verification through ID.me ensures golfers book only eligible rates, streamlining operations and maximizing course revenue.
DALLAS, TX — TenFore Golf, a leading cloud-based golf management software provider, is excited to announce its partnership with ID.me, the next-generation digital identity wallet, to enhance identity verification for golfers booking preferred rates at courses nationwide.
Golf courses nationwide are increasingly challenged by fraudulent tee time bookings, with players attempting to secure discounted rates they are not eligible for or reselling reservations on the secondary market. These practices not only result in significant revenue loss but also create operational inefficiencies for course staff. TenFore Golf has partnered with ID.me to introduce a one-account, one-user policy, ensuring that only verified golfers can book tee times. Through this integration, golfers must confirm their identity before securing preferred rates, preventing unauthorized bookings and abuse, and stopping bots and brokers.
ID.me makes it convenient for golfers to verify their identity, so they can easily book the tee time rates they qualify for. Once verified, with consent, golfers can opt-in to share their profile with the golf course, enabling course staff to check-in the golfer and ensure that the individual who booked the tee time is the one playing. For golfers among the 70 Million + Americans who have already verified their documents with ID.me, they do not need to upload anything further and can simply agree to share their verified identity with a few clicks. Additionally, TenFore’s partnership with ID.me will allow golfers to verify their community affiliations (military, responders, students, etc.) so they can book discount tee times at participating courses.
“Our partnership with ID.me provides golf courses with a powerful tool to eliminate fraudulent bookings while streamlining operations,” said Jonathan Wride, CEO of TenFore Golf. “By verifying identity and integrating photo ID passback, we’re protecting course revenue, enhancing security, and ensuring that discounted rates are reserved for those who truly qualify.”
“ID.me is thrilled to partner with TenFore Golf to bring secure identity verification to tee time bookings,” said Chris Mills, Chief Revenue Officer at ID.me. “The ID.me digital identity wallet will give golfers a seamless way to verify their eligibility for discounts while helping courses operate efficiently and protect revenue.”
