CHICAGO, NOVEMBER 15, 2017 - EZLinks Golf LLC, a PGA TOUR affiliated company, was again named a "Top 100 Technology Company" by BuiltIn Chicago, the renowned online tech community, moving up 16 places to number 60. The recognition ranks the city's leading technology companies based on growth and size.

"Cashless payment options, expanded connectivity of products and information, and GPS-triggered experiences are revolutionizing the golf experience and ensure our products and clients stay on the leading edge." 

A PGA TOUR affiliated company, EZLinks Golf continues to unveil new products and features to better serve every type of golf operation from multi-course operators, to resorts and private club, to daily 9-hole play. Product expansion across the spectrum of course operators is ongoing with successes ranging from EZLinks 360 POS, a cloud-based POS platform that efficiently serves the needs of daily-fee courses to highly scalable reputation management platforms that help major golf operations manage social engagement and build its course reputation across multiple platforms.
