Internationally Accepted Golf Fee Card Launches in Canada

Card Membership Benefits Include Discounts at 2,500 Golf Courses - plus Hotels, Resorts and More – in over 100 Countries

Vernon, BC – Canadians can now purchase a Golf Fee Card here in Canada. The Golf Fee Card is the world’s leading golf member benefit program, boasting a network of more than 2,500 affiliated golf courses and over 3,500 golf resorts and hotels in more than 100 countries.

Members save between 20 to 50% on green fees and the rack room rates of the extensive list of golf resort and hotel partners located throughout the world. They also receive discounts of up to 30% off car rentals through Alamo and Hertz. There are currently more than 40 participating courses in BC alone – including the award-winning Bear Mountain Golf Club in Victoria and Gallagher’s Canyon Golf & Country Club in Kelowna.

“The International Golf Fee Card was first created in Europe in 1994 to represent the collective interests of quality golf courses, spas and hotels across the globe. The card delivers fantastic value to our members and we have built, and continue to build, an extensive partner program here in Canada for them to enjoy close to home,” says Dirk Terpstra, Partner and Director of Marketing & Sales for Golf Fee Card Canada. “They are able to take advantage of great savings and the low membership fee results in the card paying for itself after just a few rounds or a stay at a member-affiliated hotel.”

All members receive a membership directory, newsletters and exclusive member-only offerings from the expanding list of Golf Fee partners. The Golf Fee Card is easy to use as Members book directly with Golf Fee Card partners. A Golf Fee Card membership costs just $105 per year, or $290 for three years. Additional partner cards can be purchased for only $65 per year, or $175 for three years. Golf Fee Cards can be purchased online at www.GolfFeeCard.ca or by calling toll-free at 1-866-755-4322.
