All-in-one golf simulator booking software for bays, lessons & leagues
Open bay at 9. A coached lesson at 10. League night at 6. Zipper is the golf simulator booking software that handles all of it — plus payments, memberships, marketing, website, and a branded client app — at one transparent price.
Golf simulator booking software built for bay time AND lessons.
A golf simulator venue isn't one business — it's two running on the same floor. Revenue comes from open bay rentals and from coached instruction, often from the same player who books a Saturday bay with friends and a Tuesday lesson with your pro. Players expect their hour pack, their membership, and their lesson credits to just work across all of it.
Almost no golf simulator booking software handles this well. Most were built around hourly bay rentals and treat lessons as an afterthought, or they're adapted tee-sheet tools designed for outdoor courses that don't understand indoor, bay-metered, staffless operations. Zipper is the golf simulator booking software built for both from day one — because that's how indoor golf actually runs.
Memberships and hour packs that work across bays and lessons.
- Sell monthly bay memberships that include a set number of off-peak hours plus a discount on lessons
- Sell 10-hour bay packs that automatically reload when a player uses them up — not on a fixed monthly cycle
- Share packs across a family or a regular foursome, with one card on file for the group
Automations that work while you're coaching.
Most sim owners are also the lead instructor and the front desk. You can't answer texts mid-lesson or manually credit every league no-show. Zipper's automations handle it — in your voice, with the exclusion rules other platforms forget.
- Intro-offer sequences for first-time players that exclude existing members
- Deposit and no-show rules that protect your bay revenue automatically
- League reminders, standings updates, and waitlist alerts handled for you
- Win-back campaigns that re-engage players who haven't booked in 30 days
- Unified Inbox for email, SMS, Facebook, and Instagram DMs in one place
Branded booking, 24/7 access, and a bay experience that's yours.
Your venue's brand is the draw. Your software shouldn't undermine it. Zipper is fully white-labeled — your logo, your colors, your domain, your app. Players book a bay in seconds, and because Zipper supports self-serve booking and integrates with door-access workflows, you can run unmanned and after-hours without losing control of who's on which bay.
- New players can buy an intro hour, sign a waiver, and book their first bay in one checkout
- Bring the group — guest spots built into the booking flow
- Fully white-labeled — everything branded for your venue, including your app
- No marketplace, no competing venues, no conflict of interest
More revenue, fewer tool subscriptions, less tech stress.
Zipper is the golf simulator booking software that replaces your booking tool, email platform, website, and lead management with one system designed for how indoor golf venues actually run today.
