Lightspeed Commerce Inc. (NYSE | TSX: LSPD) has announced the
extension of its partnership as the official golf management
software of the PGA of Canada, the national association
representing more than 3,800 club professionals across the country.
Powering the world’s best businesses, Lightspeed is the unified POS
and payments platform for ambitious entrepreneurs to accelerate
growth, provide the best customer experiences and become a go-to
destination in their space.
First ignited in 2021, the renewed partnership between
Lightspeed and the PGA of Canada will enable Canadian club
professionals to access Lightspeed’s extensive industry expertise
for an additional two years through the association’s popular “Tee
Talks” and “Tee Talks Live” educational programs.
“We are so excited to have Lightspeed extend as a National
Partner and the Official Golf Management Software of the PGA of
Canada,” said Kevin Thistle, CEO, PGA of Canada. “Lightspeed
provides our members with invaluable insight into how technology
can help provide a better all-around customer experience at their
facilities, and we are grateful for their support of club
professionals and golf in Canada.”
The Summer Surge
As part of this new partnership agreement, the PGA of Canada
will today unveil the ‘Summer Surge presented by Lightspeed,’ a
season-long campaign celebrating the success and performance of top
club professionals competing in PGA of Canada National
Championships. This new initiative demonstrates Lightpeed’s
support, not only of retail and restaurant operations in golf
courses across Canada, but of PGA of Canada professionals
themselves.
“Our partnership with the PGA of Canada is incredibly important
to Lightspeed, and I am elated to be able to continue building on
the great work we have already done,” said David Hope, GM,
Lightspeed Golf. “While championing the learning and educational
content for PGA of Canada professionals will always be front and
centre, we are excited to this year expand our reach into the PGA
of Canada national championships as well. Golf is what unites us,
and it is critical that we show our commitment to supporting club
professionals both off and on the course.”
Lightspeed powers some of the best golf courses in Canada
— including TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley, Tobiano, Sagebrush
Golf and Sporting Club, The Algonquin, Bear Mountain, Manoir
Richelieu, and Mickelson National — and around the world
— including Kapalua, Cape Kidnappers, Kauri Cliffs, The Park
West Palm, Coeur d’Alene Resort, and the K Club.
