Services
The Website provides a booking service for GOLF Link Members to book a round of golf at designated participating golf courses (a "Booking"). This Booking service is the only service that the Website provides. The Website does not sell or provide any conditions, quality or experience on the actual round of golf.
A Booking may be made for any available time slot at a participating golf course. GLP does not guarantee that your preferred date, time or golf course will be available.
The fees and charges for a particular Booking vary depending on the number of players, player types, number of holes and the selected golf course (the "Fee"). The Website will indicate the Fee for the proposed Booking before processing your payment.
All stated Fees include the applicable Goods and Services Tax (GST) unless otherwise stated.
If you wish to proceed with a proposed Booking, you must pay the Fee to GLP by one of our supported credit cards. You have exclusive rights to the booking time for 10 minutes, after this period the slot becomes available for other users to book.
To finalise and pay for your Booking you must therefore provide to GLP details including the:
  • credit card type;
  • credit card number; and
  • expiry date.
You agree that GLP may charge your credit card the Fee.
No credit card details are stored by GLP. Payments are processed by SecurePay Pty Ltd of Level 3, 257 Collins St Melbourne, Vic 3000, Australia.
A complete Booking will be made when you have provided all required details to GLP and GLP has:
  • successfully charged your credit card the applicable Fee; and
  • recorded your Booking in our database.
A Booking is not conditional on the issuance to or receipt by you of an invoice or booking number.
GLP will attempt to ensure that the Booked golf course honours the Booking. However, GLP makes no guarantee that Bookings will be honoured.
In the event a golf course fails to honour a Booked tee-time, you agree to be bound by that course's policies and procedures regarding the failure to honour a booked tee-time.

Proof of purchase
