Country club POS
The country club POS that keeps ringing when the Wi-Fi drops
The pro shop, the grill room, the bar, the halfway house and the beverage cart on one register — selling to the same member accounts, routing tickets to the right station, and taking orders straight through an outage.
Private club POS system
One register for every outlet the club runs
Most clubs run a restaurant POS in the clubhouse, a retail POS in the shop and a spreadsheet at the turn, then reconcile them at night. Bubs is one point of sale, so a sale anywhere is on the member's account and in the ledger the moment it settles.
Every outlet, one catalog
Grill room, bar, patio, halfway house, beverage cart and pro shop sell from one system, and revenue reports by outlet without anyone merging exports.
Member charge or card
Members sign the chit to their account. Guests and outside groups pay by card — chip, tap or swipe — on a countertop or handheld reader.
Checks the way tables pay
Split by seat, evenly, by item or by amount. Join and move tables, hold a tab at the bar, and hand a section to the next server with one manager tap.
Tips and service charges
Service charges follow the club's rules by order type, party size or banquet contract. Tips are tied to the server who settled, directly or pooled, and flow to payroll.
Tickets to the right station
Each item routes to its station's kitchen display, its printer or both, fired by course — so the bar gets the drinks and the line gets the food.
Approvals with a trail
Voids and comps need a manager, who approves with a tap. A paid check is refunded, never voided, and every exception is on the record.
Offline-first
What happens when the internet goes down at the turn?
Nothing the members notice. Every register keeps a queue on the device and syncs it when the connection returns, with check numbers that can't collide. A banner tells staff whether the problem is the tablet's Wi-Fi, the club's internet or our cloud, so nobody reboots the router for the wrong reason.
Keeps working offline
- Build a check, fire it to the kitchen and hold a tab
- Charge to a member account
- Comp and void, with manager approval
- Print kitchen tickets on the club's own network
- Reopen after a restart with the menu, floor and open checks intact
Waits for the connection
- Card payments — never queued, never taken on faith
- Timed course holds, which the server fires
- Cash tip declarations and the club credit book
Golf pro shop POS
A pro shop that knows what's on the shelf
The shop sells from the same register as the grill, with a retail catalog built for apparel and equipment: SKUs and UPCs, sizes and colors, cost and margin, taxable or not. Pick the size from a sheet at the counter and charge it to the member.
Stock moves through a permanent log — sales, receipts, transfers between the floor and the stockroom, and waste. Physical counts are blind, so the count is what's on the shelf rather than what the system expected. Purchase orders are received in part or in full, and cost updates as the stock comes in.
- Variants by size and color
- Blind counts with variance
- Purchase orders with partial receiving
- Reorder points and a low-stock list
Members at the counter
A register that knows the member
At a club, the customer has a name, a number and a usual. The register should know all three before the server asks.
Find the member fast
Search by name or member number, with the member's photo on the screen so the server rings up the right Dana Walsh.
The member card
Allergies, the usual, notes and recent visits, on the check as soon as the member is attached. The bartender knows the order before it's said.
Sign-in that is also the clock
Staff tap their tile and enter a PIN. That's the register sign-in and the clock-in, so hours and tips land on the right person.
Limits per role
Let servers comp up to an amount the club sets, and send anything larger to a manager. Discounts carry a reason, so the report explains itself.
Halfway house and beverage cart
The turn and the cart on the same register
The halfway house rings members up in seconds from a pocket register with open tabs down the side. Orders placed from the course arrive on the same screen as the window's own sales, and go to the grill's printer with everything else.
The beverage cart driver goes on duty from the register, claims the orders coming in from the course and marks them delivered. Every sale lands on the member's account alongside the rest of the day.
- On-course orders beside walk-up sales
- Driver claims each delivery
- Every sale on the member's account
One system
Every sale is already on the statement
A member charge at the bar is on the member's statement, counted toward the minimum and posted to the ledger by department before the member reaches the parking lot. The daily sales report doesn't get re-keyed into anything.
FAQ
Point of sale questions
What is a country club POS?
A country club POS is the point of sale a private club uses in its pro shop, restaurants, bar, halfway house and beverage cart. Unlike a restaurant or retail POS, it charges purchases to member accounts, applies the club's service charges and minimums, and posts every sale to the member's statement and the club's ledger.
Does the POS work when the internet goes down?
Yes. Registers keep building checks, firing tickets, holding tabs and charging member accounts while the connection is down, queue everything on the device, and sync when it's back. Card payments need a connection; charges to a member account do not.
What hardware does it run on?
Bubs POS runs on iPads and Android tablets the club owns, with network receipt and kitchen printers and card readers for card-present payments. We recommend a tested kit rather than requiring one.
Can the pro shop and the restaurant share one system?
Yes. The pro shop sells retail from the same register app as the grill and the bar, to the same member accounts. Retail has its own catalog with sizes and colors, stock counts and purchase orders.
How are tips handled?
Tips are added only when a guest or member chooses to, and each tip is tied to the staff member who settled the check. The club chooses direct tips or a pool by hours or points, and tips flow to payroll with the approved hours.
Do member charges count toward the food and beverage minimum?
Yes. A member charge at any outlet is on the member's account the moment it is settled, and spend counts toward the minimum under the club's own rules about which outlets and order types qualify.
