Experience behind the integration

From helping launch Square in Australia to rebuilding club technology around it.

One of the 18links co-founders helped launch Square POS in Australia. That first-hand understanding of payments and commerce is now being used to give golf clubs the Square experience they have wanted—with the golf, membership and financial architecture they require.

Planned integration

Marketing, by choice

Know your members in 18links. Engage them through Mailchimp.

Mailchimp

Mailchimp will become the preferred marketing platform for 18links. Clubs will be able to build audiences from current membership and club activity, then use Mailchimp for campaign creation, delivery and marketing analytics.

  • 18links remains the source of member and audience truth
  • Mailchimp provides professional campaign creation and delivery
  • Marketing remains separate from critical operational communications

Connected without compromise

18links owns club truth

Identity, membership, balances, bookings and operating state remain authoritative in one place.

Specialists stay specialised

Square and Mailchimp are used for the experiences they execute exceptionally well.

Every connection is explainable

Failures and exceptions surface for staff rather than disappearing between systems.
