Introducing GOLFPAY, NGF's New Suite of Merchant Services to Help You Save Money:

Save on transactional fees and enhance the way your course or club processes customer payments. NGF has partnered with the industry's leading private merchant consultant, TransFirst, to develop GOLFPAY. This member program will help your business keep more of your hard-earned revenues, improve the ways you can take your customer payments and offer superior security for their personal information. TransFirst is not one of the huge banks that offers payment processing as an "add-on." Helping businesses like courses and clubs improve transactions while saving serious money... that is their only business!

NGF saved more than $6,000 on our processing of member dues payments by switching to GOLFPAY. That's real money. Give us a chance to see what we can save you.

Let TransFirst conduct a free GOLFPAY analysis of your basic payment processing info and if they can't help you, they'll cover the cost of your NGF facility membership (up to $199).

Contact NGF@TransFirst.com for more information about GOLFPAY.
