Details on the benefits associated with each Membership Tier can be found on our Member Benefits page. GolfPass reserves the right to change the terms of your Subscription and the Membership Tiers, including the price and benefits, from time to time. A valid GolfPass Account is required to sign up for a Subscription.
3.2. Subscription Fees and Auto-Renewal. ACCESS TO THE GOLFPASS MEMBERSHIPS REQUIRES YOU TO SIGN UP FOR A SUBSCRIPTION, WHICH INVOLVES AUTOMATIC ENROLLMENT INTO A RECURRING PAYMENT PLAN. IF YOU SIGN UP FOR A SUBSCRIPTION TO A GOLFPASS MEMBERSHIP, YOU AGREE THAT YOUR SUBSCRIPTION WILL BE AUTOMATICALLY RENEWED FOR SUBSEQUENT BILLING PERIODS OF EQUAL LENGTH TO YOUR CURRENT BILLING PERIOD (FOR EXAMPLE, MONTHLY OR ANNUALLY) AT THE END OF THE BILLING PERIOD AT THE THEN-CURRENT SUBSCRIPTION FEE (PLUS APPLICABLE TAXES AND FEES) UNLESS YOU CANCEL IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW. PAYMENT WILL BE CHARGED TO YOUR CHOSEN PAYMENT METHOD UPON PURCHASE CONFIRMATION AND AT THE START OF EVERY NEW BILLING PERIOD UNLESS YOU CANCEL. TO AVOID CHARGES AFTER A FREE TRIAL, CANCEL PRIOR TO EXPIRATION OF THE FREE TRIAL.
Your billing period is the interval between each recurring billing date and corresponds to the term of your Subscription (for example, monthly or annually; your “Subscription Term”). To see your next recurring billing date, log in to your account and navigate to the Manage Membership page. You acknowledge that billing for a particular Membership Tier may not occur on the same date of each month if your Subscription began on a date not contained in a given month (for example, if you sign up for a monthly subscription on August 31st, you will be billed next on September 30th, etc.) or due to Free Trials, Promotions, gift card redemptions, or changes to your payment method.
We will give you advance notice of any price change prior to the next billing date, but we will not be able to notify you of any changes in applicable taxes or fees. If you do not wish to accept a price change, you may cancel your subscription in accordance with the instructions below. If you do not timely cancel your subscription, your subscription will be automatically renewed at the new price in effect at the time of the renewal, and you authorize us to charge your chosen payment method for these amounts.
Subscription purchases have no monetary value (for example, they are not a cash account or equivalent) and are purchases of only a limited, non-exclusive, revocable, non-assignable, and non-transferable right to access and use the GolfPass Services included in the Membership Tier of your Subscription in accordance with these TOS. You may not transfer, sell, purchase, barter, or trade your subscription or attempt or offer to do so. Any attempted transfer will be null and void.
3.3. Subscription Payment Method. All subscription fees associated with your Subscription will be charged according to Section 2.2 (Payment Method) above.
3.4. Free Trials and Promotions. From time to time, GolfPass may offer subscriptions to certain GolfPass Memberships on a limited, free-trial basis (“Free Trials”), and the availability and length of any such Free Trial may be limited in duration (the “Trial Period”). Certain GolfPass Membership benefits, such as monthly tee time promo codes, waived convenience fees and tee time protection on GolfNow, and other promotional gifts, may not be included during your Free Trial and will only be provided once your paid Subscription has begun. For more details, see Free Trial Terms and Conditions.
GolfPass Memberships may also be offered as part of a promotion, including discounted offerings, third party incentives or as part of a bundle with other products or services offered by us or others (“Membership Promotions”), and the availability and length of any such Membership Promotion may be limited in duration (the “Membership Promo Period”). You may redeem a particular Membership Promotion according to the rules for that Membership Promotion (and such rules are deemed Supplemental Terms). The Rules applicable to a particular Membership Promotion can be found on our FAQ page. If you received a Membership Promotion through a third party, additional terms and conditions may apply; please contact the applicable third party for those terms and conditions. We are not responsible for the products and services provided by third parties. Unless we expressly state otherwise in the applicable rules, a particular Membership Promotion can only be redeemed once, cannot be redeemed for cash, and may not be combined with other offers.
Free Trials and Membership Promotions may be subject to Supplemental Terms. We have sole discretion to determine your eligibility for a Free Trial or a particular Promotion and may limit your opportunity to participate, and we may use information such as device ID, method of payment, or an account email address to determine your eligibility. Certain Promotions, such as student or military/first responder discounts, may require additional proof of eligibility. If you are required to provide a payment method in connection with a Free Trial or Membership Promotion, your payment method will be charged the then-current subscription fee (plus applicable taxes and fees) for the applicable GolfPass Membership following the expiration of the Trial Period or Membership Promo Period unless earlier terminated in accordance with these TOS. You may not receive a separate notice that your Trial Period or Promotional Period is about to end or has ended or that your paid or full price subscription to the Peacock Service has begun unless such notice is required by applicable law.

WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO ISSUE REFUNDS, CREDITS, OR DISCOUNTS IN OUR SOLE DISCRETION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE POLICY ABOVE. IF WE ISSUE A REFUND, CREDIT, OR DISCOUNT, WE ARE UNDER NO OBLIGATION TO ISSUE THE SAME OR SIMILAR REFUND IN THE FUTURE AND WE MAY TERMINATE YOUR ACCOUNT, MEMBERSHIP, OR ACCESS TO THE SUBSCRIPTION. THIS REFUND POLICY APPLIES TO ANY AND ALL PAYMENT METHOD USED TO PROVIDE REFUNDS. THERE WILL BE NO REFUNDS FOR PARTIALLY USED PERIODS EXCEPT WHERE REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
3.6. Purchases Through Third Party. If you purchased your Subscription through a third-party, your purchase is subject to the terms and conditions of that third-party and that third-party, not GolfPass, will at all times be solely responsible for payment, renewals, account management, cancellation, and other issues relating to your Subscription purchased through that third-party, including customer support, except where stated otherwise.

8.2. Limitation of Liability.
8.2.1. IN NO EVENT WILL THE GOLFPASS PARTIES’ AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU IN CONNECTION WITH GOLFPASS SERVICES OR THESE TOS EXCEED (i) THE AMOUNT (IF ANY) PAID BY YOU TO GOLFPASS IN THE SIX MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT WHICH GAVE RISE TO THE LIABILITY; OR (ii) ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100), WHICHEVER IS LESS.

8.2.2. BECAUSE SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW FOR THE DISCLAIMER OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES OR THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR CERTAIN TYPES OF DAMAGES, GOLFPASS PARTIES’ LIABILITY IN SUCH JURISDICTIONS SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY THE LAW OF SUCH JURISDICTION. IN ADDITION, BECAUSE SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT PERMIT THE DISCLAIMER OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES, THE DISCLAIMERS SET FORTH ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

9. Resolving Disputes Between You and GolfPass.
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS—INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT (BY REQUIRING YOUR DISPUTE TO BE SUBMITTED TO ARBITRATION) AND LIMITING YOUR RIGHTS TO RESOLVE YOUR DISPUTE AS PART OF A CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION.
Informal Dispute Resolution. Most disputes between you and GolfPass arising from or relating to the GolfPass Services or these TOS (“Disputes”) can be resolved informally, so if you have an issue with the services, you agree to reach out to us before initiating a lawsuit or arbitration, except as set forth in in the Exceptions paragraph below (“Informal Dispute Resolution”). This requires emailing dispute.resolution@versantmedia.coma written notice (“Written Notice”), which must include: (1) your name; (2) the email address(es) associated with your relationship with GolfPass; (3) a detailed description of the issue; and (4) how you’d like to resolve it. You must engage in this informal resolution process before starting any formal dispute resolution unless exempted by law. Applicable statutes of limitations and due dates for arbitration filing fees or other deadlines will be tolled upon receipt of the Written Notice to dispute.resolution@versantmedia.com, while the parties attempt informal resolution.
The Written Notice must be provided on an individualized basis and you and GolfPass agree to personally meet and confer, via telephone or videoconference, to attempt to resolve the Dispute, with that meet and confer being individualized unless all parties agree otherwise.If either party is represented by counsel, that party’s counsel may participate in the conference, but the party shall also personally attend the conference, unless one party states in writing that the other party is not required to personally attend.
If the dispute is not resolved within sixty (60) days after receipt of the Written Notice, you and GolfPass agree to resolve any remaining dispute through further informal discussions or one of the formal dispute resolution provisions below.
Agreement to Arbitrate. If Informal Dispute Resolution fails, then either party may initiate binding arbitration as the sole means to resolve Disputes, subject to the provisions following this header through and including the paragraph titled “Changes to this Arbitration Agreement” (collectively, the “Arbitration Agreement”).
The parties agree that this Arbitration Agreement is made pursuant to a transaction in interstate commerce and is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”).The arbitration will be administered by National Arbitration and Mediation (“NAM”).If NAM is not available to arbitrate, the parties will mutually agree on an alternative arbitration provider.
In accordance with the notice and opt-out provisions set forth herein, this Arbitration Agreement is intended to be interpreted broadly and it applies to all Disputes between you and GolfPass, including but not limited to (1) claims that arose, were asserted, or involve facts occurring before the existence of this Arbitration Agreement, or any prior agreement; and (2) claims that may arise after the termination of this Arbitration Agreement.
Except as set forth in the paragraph below titled “Exceptions to Informal Dispute Resolution and Arbitration Agreement,” the arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all Disputes. You and GolfPass further agree that arbitrable Disputes include but are not limited to issues arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, formation, or performance of this Arbitration Agreement, including, but not limited to, any claim that all or any part of these terms are void or voidable, whether a claim is subject to arbitration, and any dispute regarding the payment, non-payment, or timing of any administrative or arbitrator fees.
WAIVER OF RIGHTS INCLUDING JURY TRIAL.
THE PARTIES UNDERSTAND THAT ARBITRATION MEANS THAT AN ARBITRATOR AND NOT A JUDGE OR JURY WILL DECIDE ANY DISPUTE, AND THAT RIGHTS TO DISCOVERY AND APPEALS MAY BE LIMITED IN ARBITRATION. THE PARTIES FURTHER UNDERSTAND THAT THE COSTS OF ARBITRATION COULD EXCEED THE COST OF LITIGATION IN SOME INSTANCES.
YOU HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT BY AGREEING TO THESE TOS AND ARBITRATION AGREEMENT, YOU AND GOLFPASS ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.
CLASS ARBITRATION AND COLLECTIVE RELIEF WAIVER.
YOU AND GOLFPASS ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, AND EXCEPT AS PROVIDED HEREIN BELOW, ANY ARBITRATION SHALL BE CONDUCTED IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY ONLY AND NOT AS A CLASS OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTION (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION), AND THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO RESOLVE AN INDIVIDUAL PARTY’S CLAIM; NOTWITHSTANDING THIS ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, YOU AGREE THAT ANY ARBITRATION INVOLVING YOU MAY PROCEED ON A CONSOLIDATED BASIS IF AND ONLY IF GOLFPASS PROVIDES ITS CONSENT TO CONSOLIDATE IT IN WRITING.
With the exception of the paragraph titled “Class Arbitration and Collective Relief Waiver” and the paragraph titled “Mass Filings,” if any part of this Arbitration Agreement is deemed to be invalid, unenforceable, or illegal, then the balance of this Arbitration Agreement shall remain in effect and shall be construed in accordance with its terms as if the invalid, unenforceable, or illegal provision(s) were not contained herein. If, however, the paragraph titled “Class Arbitration and Collective Relief Waiver” or the paragraph titled “Mass Filings,” are found to be invalid, unenforceable, or illegal, then the entirety of this Arbitration Agreement shall be null and void, and neither you nor GolfPass shall be entitled to arbitrate the dispute in question.
This provision does not prevent you or GolfPass from participating in a class-wide settlement of claims.
Arbitration Rules. Except as modified by this Arbitration Agreement, NAM will administer any arbitration in accordance with the NAM “Comprehensive Dispute Resolution Rules and Procedures,” “Fees For Disputes When One of the Parties is a Consumer,” and the “Mass Filing Supplemental Dispute Resolution Rules and Procedures” in effect at the time any demand for arbitration is filed with NAM, excluding any rules or procedures permitting class or representative actions (“NAM Rules”). The applicable NAM rules and procedures are available at www.namadr.com or by emailing National Arbitration and Mediation’s Commercial Department at commercial@namadr.com.
Except where prohibited by applicable law, the arbitrator shall apply the law of the state of New York without giving effect to any law that would result in the applicable of the law of any other jurisdiction.You and GolfPass agree that dispositive motions will be allowed in the arbitration.
If the amount in controversy is less than $10,000, then the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of written materials that you and GolfPass submit to the arbitrator, unless (i) the arbitrator determines that a hearing is necessary; (ii) applicable law requires otherwise; or (iii) the parties agree otherwise.If the amount in controversy exceeds $10,000, either party may request (or the arbitrator may determine) to hold a hearing.
Arbitration Demand. Any arbitration demand or counterclaim asserted by either party must contain sufficient information to provide fair notice to the other party of the asserting party’s identity, the claims being asserted, and the factual allegations on which they are based, and must include proof that the claimant is party to this Arbitration Agreement and to these TOS. The arbitrator and/or NAM may require amendment of any demand or counterclaim that does not satisfy these requirements.
Arbitration Fees. Each party is responsible for its own attorneys’ fees unless the arbitration rules and/or applicable law provide otherwise.
The parties agree that NAM has discretion to reduce the amount or modify the timing of any administrative or arbitration fees due under NAM Rules where it deems appropriate, provided that such modification does not increase the costs to you, and you further agree that you waive any objection to such fee modification. The parties also agree that a good-faith challenge by either party to the fees imposed by NAM does not constitute a default, waiver, or breach of this Arbitration Agreement while such challenge remains pending before NAM, the arbitrator, and/or a court of competent jurisdiction, and that any and all due dates for those fees shall be tolled during the pendency of such challenge.
Arbitration Location. The arbitration proceedings will presumptively be held via video- or telephone-conference unless (A) the arbitrator determines there is good cause to hold an in-person hearing or (B) the parties agree otherwise.Except as otherwise provided in the paragraph titled “Mass Filings” or unless you and GolfPass agree otherwise, in the event there is an in-person proceeding:
if you live in the United States, any in-person proceedings will take place in the county of your primary residence or, if no arbitrator is available in that county, then at the closest arbitration location available in the state;
if you live outside the United States, to the extent permissible in your country, any in-person proceedings will take place in New York, New York.
Mass Filings. To increase the efficiency of administration and resolution of arbitrations, in the event 100 or more similar arbitration demands (those asserting the same or substantially similar facts or claims, and seeking the same or substantially similar relief) presented by or with the assistance or coordination of the same law firm(s) or organization(s) are submitted to NAM (or another arbitration provider selected in accordance with the provisions set forth herein if NAM is unavailable) against GolfPass within reasonably close temporal proximity (“Mass Filing”), the parties agree, subject to the provisions of this “Mass Filings” paragraph: (A) to administer the Mass Filing in batches of 100 demands per batch (to the extent there are fewer than 100 arbitration demands left over after the batching described above, a final batch will consist of the remaining demands); (B) to designate one arbitrator for all demands in each batch; (C) to accept applicable fees, including, without limitation, any related fee reduction determined by NAM (or another arbitration provider selected in accordance with the provisions set forth herein if NAM is unavailable if NAM is unavailable) in its discretion; (D) that fees associated with a demand for arbitration included in a Mass Filing, including, without limitation, fees owed by GolfPass and the claimants, shall only be due after your demand for arbitration is included in a set of batch proceedings and that batch is properly designated for filing, processing, and adjudication; and (E) that this process of batched proceedingsshall continue until each demand (including your demand) is adjudicated or otherwise resolved. If your demand for arbitration is included in the Mass Filing, any statute of limitation applicable to your claims will remain tolled until your demand for arbitration is decided, withdrawn, or settled.
Arbitrator selection for each batch shall be conducted to the greatest extent possible in accordance with the applicable NAM rules and procedures for such selection and shall be subject to any rights to strike an arbitrator provided under applicable state law if the rights granted by law exceed those provided for in the NAM rules. In accordance with applicable law and to the extent an in-person proceeding is deemed necessary by the arbitrator or mutual party agreement, the arbitrator will determine the location where the proceedings will be conducted.
You agree to cooperate in good faith with GolfPass and the arbitration provider to implement such a “batch approach” or other similar approach to provide for an efficient resolution of claims, including, without limitation, the payment of combined reduced fees, set by NAM in its discretion, for each batch of claims. The parties further agree to cooperate with each other and the arbitration provider or arbitrator to establish any other processes or procedures that the arbitration provider or arbitrator believe will provide for an efficient resolution of claims. For example, if the number of cases filed makes batches of 100 cases too small for the efficient resolution of all filed claims, you and GolfPass agree that NAM may increase the batch size or transfer cases between batches as determined in the reasoned discretion of the NAM procedural arbitrator, following the input of the parties. Any and all disagreements between the parties as to whether this provision applies or as to the process or procedure for batching shall be resolved by a NAM procedural arbitrator.
This “Batching” provision shall in no way be interpreted as increasing the number of claims necessary to trigger the applicability of NAM’s Mass Filing Supplemental Dispute Resolution Rules and Procedures or authorizing class arbitration of any kind.
Arbitrator’s Authority and Arbitration Award. The arbitrator shall be empowered under this Arbitration Agreement to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity. The arbitrator has the right to impose sanctions in accordance with the arbitration provider’s rules and procedures for any frivolous claims or submissions the arbitrator determines have not been filed in good faith, as well as for a party’s failure to comply with this Arbitration Agreement or the Informal Dispute Resolution Process.
The arbitrator’s decision will include the essential findings and conclusions upon which the arbitrator based the award. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator will have the authority to award monetary damages on an individual basis and to grant, on an individual basis, any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual to the extent available under applicable law, the arbitral forum’s rules, and this Arbitration Agreement. The parties agree that the damages and/or other relief must be consistent with these TOS, including but not limited to the paragraphs titled “Class Arbitration and Collective Relief Waiver” and “Limitation of Liability” as to the types and the amount of damages or other relief for which a party may be held liable.
Except for decisions in arbitrations that are joined together in a single batch, no arbitration award or decision will have any preclusive effect, except to preclude the same or similar claims and issues addressed by the award from being re-arbitrated between the same parties. Attorneys’ fees will be available to the prevailing party in the arbitration only if authorized under applicable substantive law governing the claims in the arbitration.
Exceptions to Informal Dispute Resolution and Arbitration Agreement. Notwithstanding the parties’ agreement to resolve all disputes through the Informal Dispute Resolution process and, if necessary, binding arbitration:
- Either party’s claims of infringement or misappropriation of the other party’s patent, copyright, trademark, or trade secret (and any motions to enforce such proceedings) shall be exclusively brought in the state and federal courts located in the City and County of New York, New York.
- Either party may elect to have disputes or claims resolved in a small claims court regardless of what forum the filing party initially chose, provided the disputes or claims are within the scope of that court’s jurisdiction. Judgments of small claims courts may be enforced as set forth in the rules of such court.
- Either party may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for a provisional remedy in connection with an arbitrable controversy, including without limitation injunctive relief.
- Either party may elect to have disputes regarding whether a complaining party has satisfied the Informal Dispute Resolution procedures resolved by a court as a precursor to arbitration.

You have the right to opt out and not be bound by the Arbitration Agreement by sending written notice, signed by you, of your decision to opt out to the following address: dispute.resolution@versantmedia.com. The notice must be sent within 30 days of October 9, 2025 or your first use of the GolfPass Services, whichever is later; otherwise, you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with the terms of the Arbitration Agreement. If you opt out of the arbitration provisions, GolfPass also will not be bound by them.
If you opt out of the Arbitration Agreement, you may exercise your right to a trial by judge, as permitted by applicable law, but any prior existing agreement to arbitrate disputes under a prior version of the Arbitration Agreement will not apply to claims not yet filed. If you opt out of the Arbitration Agreement, you will not be opting out of any other provisions of these TOS and you agree to be bound by all other provisions of these terms, which shall remain in effect as allowable by law.
Changes to this Arbitration Agreement. GolfPass will provide 30 days’ notice of the date of any material changes to this Arbitration Agreement. Changes will become effective on the 30th day and apply to all claims not yet filed, regardless of when they accrued. If you consent to these terms on or before the 30th day or continue to use the GolfPass Services after the 30th day, you agree that any unfiled claims are subject to the revised clause. If GolfPass changes this Arbitration Agreement after the date you first accepted it (or accepted any subsequent changes to the agreement), you agree that your continued use of the GolfPass Services 30 days after such change will be deemed acceptance of those changes.

Class Action Waiver
