Sign Up

Quick Start

Get your GolfCartOps account up and running in minutes. Add your first location, fleet, pricing, and share your booking link.

Follow these five steps to go from sign-up to accepting your first online booking.

Step 1: Sign Up and Create Your Business

  1. Visit the GolfCartOps sign-up page and create your account with your email and password
  2. Enter your business name -- this becomes your organization in the system
  3. You will land on the main dashboard after completing sign-up

Step 2: Add Your First Location

  1. Click Locations in the sidebar
  2. Click Add Location and fill in your details:
    • Location name (e.g., "Main Street Shop" or "Resort Kiosk")
    • Full address
    • Phone number and email
    • Timezone and operating hours
  3. Save the location -- it appears in your location selector at the top of the dashboard

Tip: If you operate from a single location, you only need one. You can always add more later.

Step 3: Build Your Fleet

  1. Navigate to Fleet in the sidebar
  2. First, create your asset types (e.g., "4-Seater Standard", "6-Seater Premium", "Street Legal LSV"). Each type defines the category, default seating capacity, and base daily rate.
  3. Then click Add Cart to register individual carts. Enter:
    • A name or identifier (e.g., "Sunset Cruiser")
    • The asset type
    • Year, color, and license plate (if applicable)
  4. Repeat for each cart in your fleet

Tip: You can also set up add-ons like rain covers, Bluetooth speakers, or child seats from the Fleet section.

Step 4: Set Your Pricing

  1. Go to Pricing in the sidebar
  2. Your base rates carry over from the asset types you created
  3. Add pricing rules to fine-tune:
    • Weekend premiums -- charge more on Friday through Sunday
    • Seasonal rates -- higher prices during peak tourist season
    • Length-of-stay discounts -- offer 10% off for weekly rentals
    • Tax rates -- configure applicable sales tax for each location
  1. Go to Settings and find your public booking URL
  2. Your booking page lives at a unique link like book.golfcartops.com/your-business
  3. Share this link on your website, Google Business listing, social media, and printed materials
  4. Customers can browse available carts, select dates, choose add-ons, and pay online
