Better Municipal Golf Is Here: Meet TenFore Golf, Our New Golf Management Partner

Municipal golf is a revenue generator for the community and a meaningful resident gathering place. It’s also a unique, complex operation that looks much different than it did a decade ago. Today’s municipal course is also a restaurant, a retail operation, a driving range, and an events venue. Every year, golfers expect more convenience and more connected experiences, and most technology hasn’t kept up.

Many courses still rely on a patchwork of siloed systems and manual processes that were never designed for a modern golf operation. For a municipality, this can cause:

• Disconnected tee sheets, point-of-sale, and payment systems that fragment the resident experience and let revenue leak between the cracks
• Manual, counter-bound processes for booking, eligibility checks, and payment reconciliation that leave golfers waiting and pull staff away from the rest of the course
• No-shows and cancellations that go unfilled and quietly drain public revenue
• Limited tools to protect resident pricing and block tee-time bots without also blocking legitimate bookings
• Manual, error-prone reporting that makes it hard to prove golf is a well-run, revenue-positive public asset

A comprehensive golf platform offers a new opportunity to connect every part of the operation while preserving the transparency and accountability public golf requires.

Introducing TenFore Golf

TenFore Golf is a native, all-in-one platform built for modern municipal golf, now available through CivicPlus. TenFore runs your entire golf operation in one place, with one customer record, one payment system, and one source of truth. Staff can serve golfers from anywhere on the property, and leadership sees the whole operation in real time.

TenFore helps your municipal golf facility:

Grow revenue, free up staff, and delight golfers

TenFore consolidates tee sheet, point of sale, integrated payments, booking engine, reporting, and personalized resident engagement onto one platform, with no third-party patchwork holding it together. Pro-shop retail, food and beverage (F&B), memberships, tournaments, and activities beyond golf can all be purchased and paid for from the same place or on the same ticket.

Deliver faster service and on-demand golfer experiences

Self-service kiosks, staff tablets, and a branded mobile app let residents book, check in, and pay from anywhere on the property, not just the front counter. Because the Android-native point of sale doesn’t depend on a constant connection, staff can run the full system at the bag drop, the turn, or the beverage cart, freeing a lean team from being tied to one location.

Fill every tee time and recover revenue

Built-in tools like automated waitlists, RSVP Confirm, and Standby Walk-Ups resell cancelled and no-show times the moment they open up, with no staff intervention required. Dynamic pricing rules capture peak value and help fill off-peak times.

Protect pricing integrity and resident access

Identity verification confirms age, residency, and community status right at the point of sale, so every golfer receives only the rate they qualify for. Built-in bot prevention permits legitimate automated booking while blocking the third-party services that try to grab tee times at hard-to-book courses.

Prove financial performance and stewardship

Standard reports give course management visibility into rounds, revenue, and demand. They also give finance teams clean revenue reconciliation and provide parks and recreation leadership with a clear view of utilization and resident access.

TenFore with the Civic Impact Platform

TenFore transforms golf operations on its own, but it’s even more powerful paired with CivicPlus^® Recreation Management. Together, these systems:

• Serve residents across the whole department: Provide a modern, self-service experience for registering and paying for classes, camps, and facilities in Recreation Management, and for booking, prepaying, and checking in for golf in TenFore.
• Free staff from manual work: Both systems take pressure off the front counter, so teams spend more time serving the community and less on transactions and paperwork.
• Grow and recover revenue to reinvest in programming: Program registrations and facility rentals alongside filled tee times and connected pro shop, F&B, and membership sales generate revenue that can fund recreation across the community.
• Prove the value of every public dollar: Transparent reporting from each system shows leadership and council that recreation and golf alike are well-run, revenue-positive community assets.

Tips to Get the Most Out of TenFore

Tip 1: Take Advantage of Modern Hardware: Provide self-service kiosks and equip staff with Clover Flex handhelds and tablets so they can book, check in, and take payment from anywhere on the property, even when Wi-Fi or power goes out.

Tip 2: Simplify Multi-Course Management: If you operate more than one course, connect every property into a single platform so golfers experience one brand.

Tip 3: Use the AI Tee Sheet Builder: Describe your ideal tee sheet schedule in plain language, and TenFore AI builds it live, right before your eyes.
