What it is
Northstar is cloud-based golf management software that brings club operations into one system. Members can book tee times and view schedules through an app or website, while staff receive real-time course visibility. Its web tournament manager supports online registration, recurring events, and automated notifications, and works with the ClubNow app and Connect website. Members can book lessons and activities online or by smartphone; clubs can schedule instructors and bill reservations automatically. A tee-time lottery applies club, membership, and guest rules, using random or weighted selection. Retail POS tools cover inventory control, order fulfillment, accounts payable invoicing, and member e-commerce linked to real-time inventory. Northstar supports multi-club, multi-course, and multi-property organizations with centralized control, and offers APIs for custom integrations alongside integrations with payment, marketing, accounting, golf-service, and POS systems. Its stated implementation process includes planning, data preparation, configuration, migration, staff training, and go-live support. Founded in 2001 and headquartered in Alpharetta, Georgia, Northstar serves golf and other private clubs, community associations, and hospitality environments. Pricing is modular and depends on selected modules, club size, and operational needs; no price is listed.
