Feature Description

Searching for a course

Golf reservation products are hosted in their own “Tee Time” category, which has a distinctive look from the ski product category display. An optimized search tool enables guests to easily search and book filter available tee times and add to the cart based on their desired date , tee-and time range, the number of holes, and the number of players. If the course has availability based on search criteria, then a short description of the course along with the rate is displayed. If a course does not have availability available tee times based on search criteria, then the course image is greyed out and a message informing guests that no tee times are available is displayed.

Info

NOTE: Pricing, tee times, and course availability are controlled in EZLinks and are not configurable in Aspenware. For an architecture overview or how Aspenware Commerce talks to EZLinks, please refer to Golf Architecture.

for tee-times

The For resorts using a supported payment provider, the checkout flow highlights to the guest that their credit card is being collected to reserve the tee time but is not being charged at the time of purchase. Products can be priced if you intend to collect the course fee during the reservation. Tee-times when added to the cart are locked for a period of time to block other guests from overbooking the same tee-time. If the guest does not book within a reasonable time-frame the lock is removed and another guest can book the time-slot.
