The Check-In Experience
How a golfer gets started
A simple, tangible flow that turns every check-in into education and data.
No Extra Burden on Your Staff
Easy for your staff. Easy for your golfers.
Golf Code IQ™ isn't one more thing your team has to manage. Instead of relying on golfers to notice another sign at the clubhouse, courses can give players a simple opportunity to prepare for their round in advance.
For your staff
Nothing new to teach, enforce, or track by hand. Golf Code IQ™ runs on its own — golfers come in already prepared, and your dashboard fills itself.
For your golfers
No app to download, no forms to fill out. A single link or scan is all it takes to prepare — at home or right at the course.
Two Ways to Check In
Prepare at home, or prepare on-site
Golfers can complete the recommended challenge before they ever arrive — or take it right at the course. Either way, they check in prepared.
Path 1 · Before You Arrive
Take the test from your tee-time confirmation email
The Golf Code IQ™ link is included right in the tee-time confirmation and reminder emails, so golfers can complete the certification challenge at home — before they ever reach the course.
Path 2 · At the Course
Haven't taken the test yet? Scan the QR code and go
For golfers who didn't take the challenge in advance, the course QR code is posted at the shop, on carts, and at the first tee — so they can scan, take the challenge, and check in on the spot.
However they arrive, every golfer ends up prepared — and every check-in is captured in your dashboard.
After Your Round
One quick tap — and your round helps everyone
About four and a half hours after you check in, Golf Code IQ™ sends a single one-tap prompt. In 30 seconds you rate your pace, log the ball marks you fixed, and highlight a positive moment — and it all flows straight into the course's private dashboard.
Rate your pace
Did the round feel fast, just right, or slow? One tap.
Log ball marks
How many ball marks did you repair? Tap the number and done.
Highlight a moment
Saw something great out there? Tap a chip and add a note.
- No app to download — the prompt arrives by email and in-app.
- Takes about 30 seconds. Frictionless by design.
- Your feedback helps your course improve pace and recognize good play.
