Key Benefits:
Quick and Easy setup - Simple to Use

GolfClubSubs has been by far the easiest transition of software we have ever done.

Paul H.
Blackpool North Shore Golf Club

Designed by Harry Colt, Blackpool North Shore was established in 1904 and is a challenging 18 hole par 71 course, measuring 6,444 yards playing off the white tees and has been an Open Championship qualifying venue in the past with promising 'fast undulating greens’.

This course was home to the first fund raising event of The Duke of Edinburgh Awards Scheme in 1963. It was an international match – Britain v Rest of the World, which attracted many of the golfing greats such as Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Gary Player & Peter Allis to name but a few, all competing for The Prince Phillip Trophy, under the watchful eye of HRH Prince Phillip himself.

In February, 2024, GolfClubSubs Smart Direct Debit system was selected by the club to collect and manage the member’s monthly instalment payments.

Paul Heaton, Club Manager at Blackpool North Shore Golf Club stated:-

GolfClubSubs has been by far the easiest transition of software we have ever done."

The automated software, which is administered in-house by the club, enables members to pay their membership fee via affordable monthly instalments and includes a live dashboard with real-time stats and reporting, something that wasn’t possible with the previous provider.

"Added to that, the simple tools to process and administer this to our members is fantastic. We would wholly recommend this business!

Meet The Team

Daniel Halliday
Daniel Halliday

CEO & Lead Developer

"I created GolfClubSubs for 2 reasons. Firstly, as a keen golfer and software developer it frustrated me that my own golf club was still sending out paper renewal letters in the post, meaning I had to drive up to the club to make my annual subs payment when everything else I could handle on my phone.

The second reason was closer to home as my club didn't offer an affordable way for me to spread the cost over the year, which became a priority when my second child came into the picture! They said it would be too much admin, so I decided to solve the admin headache both for my club and for myself as the member / user.

Each day as a developer is about solving problems and building something that wasn't there before. I have loved seeing the direct impact of our work and helping golf clubs across the UK & Ireland develop and grow their membership base."

Sales & Account Manager

My golf journey has been interesting to say the least, with most of it documented on my YouTube channel. I have shot a 58 on a simulator and remain at the time of writing this The Open champion for 2022 yet I have never broken 80 outdoors, much to the amusement of those around me! I freely admit to being a golf addict and as a right handed golfer who currently putts left handed with a broomstick putter I am certainly not your typical golfer.

Opening up access to the game of golf is something I have always been passionate about and to combine my experience from 18+ years of IT sales and account management with my passion for golf is a very natural, and exciting step for me. I will continually strive to understand your needs and to be relied upon to look after your best interest at all times."

My role in HR and Legal involves making our workplace as productive and pleasant as possible. It's a great feeling to know I've made a positive impact on someone's day."
