Summer 2026 Product Update: May & June Releases
Two months of releases in one roundup — a rebuilt POS, last-minute pricing, a one-download kiosk installer, presell memberships, two-way messaging, new membership and booking tools, a sales report, a Google review block, and more.
We have shipped a lot this summer. The last two releases packed in a rebuilt point-of-sale system, dynamic last-minute pricing, a one-download kiosk installer, presell memberships, built-in customer messaging, and a whole stack of new membership and booking tools. Here is everything new in VTee across May and June.
New Feature
POS Overhaul
The point-of-sale system has been completely rebuilt from the ground up. Faster checkout flow, cleaner interface, and a more intuitive experience for your staff. Whether you are ringing up food and drinks, processing tab payments, or handling walk-in bookings — everything is smoother, quicker, and designed for the way your team actually works.
New Feature
Last-Minute Pricing
Dynamic pricing based on supply and demand. As the current time approaches an open booking's start time, VTee can automatically reduce the price to fill empty bays. Configure custom discount tiers — for example, 20% off at 2 hours out, 40% off at 1 hour out. Turn unsold time slots into revenue instead of letting them go empty.
New
Kiosk Application — One Download, Zero Commands
The kiosk app is now a single executable installer. Download it, run it, done. No more PowerShell scripts, no manual configuration steps, no terminal windows. The entire setup — installation, auto-updates, and multi-display lockdown — is handled by one file. If you are setting up a new bay or re-imaging a machine, the process just got dramatically simpler. You also have more control than ever from your VTee admin portal — remotely lock and unlock bays, push app updates, and monitor device status without ever touching the machine.
New
Presell Memberships
Start selling memberships before your facility opens or before a new plan goes live. Customers can sign up and have their card authorized — but they will not be charged until the membership officially starts. It is a powerful way to build a member base ahead of launch, gauge demand for new tiers, and lock in recurring revenue before day one.
New
Two-Way Messaging
Chat directly with your customers from inside VTee. Customers can message you from their profile, and your staff can reply from the admin panel. New messages trigger email notifications so nothing gets missed. It is a simple, built-in way to handle questions, coordinate group bookings, and provide support — without giving out personal phone numbers or juggling a separate messaging tool.
Booking & Scheduling
Auto-Assign Bays
VTee now automatically assigns bays based on the most efficient scheduling. When a customer books, the system picks the bay that best fills your floor plan — reducing gaps, consolidating usage, and maximizing the number of bookings you can fit in a day. No more manual bay management or wasted slots between reservations.
Instructor Approval Flow
Instructors can now accept or decline lesson bookings before they are confirmed. When a customer requests a lesson, the instructor receives a notification and can review the request before it goes through. This gives your teaching pros full control over their schedule and prevents surprise bookings.
Upload Booking Floor Plan Image
Replace the default booking grid with a custom image of your actual floor plan — or hide the floor plan grid altogether. Upload a photo or diagram of your facility layout so customers see exactly where they are booking. Great for facilities with unique layouts or multi-level setups.
Booking Product Images
Add images to your booking products and display them on the booking page. Show customers what each bay type or experience looks like before they book — simulator setups, lounge areas, premium bays, and more. A picture is worth a thousand words when it comes to converting browsers into bookings.
Sync Bookings to Square Appointments
VTee bookings now sync directly to Square Appointments. If you use Square as your point-of-sale system, your reservations will appear in Square's calendar automatically — keeping your staff on the same page across both platforms without any manual data entry.
Custom Product Sorting
Arrange your booking products in the exact order you want customers to see them. Drag and drop to put your most popular options at the top or group related products together.
Monthly Calendar View
A new calendar view in the admin panel gives you a month-at-a-glance look at all your bookings. See busy days, spot gaps, and get a high-level picture of your schedule without scrolling through individual time slots.
Hourly Guest Rate
Charge an additional per-guest, per-hour fee for extra players on a booking. Great for facilities that price by the bay but want to capture the value of larger groups. The fee is calculated automatically and added to the total at checkout.
Memberships
Minimum Billing Cycles
Set a minimum commitment when customers purchase a membership — for example, a 3-month or 6-month minimum. Members cannot cancel before the commitment period ends, giving you more predictable recurring revenue and reducing early churn on your membership plans.
Flat Rate Membership Option
Create memberships with a flat booking rate instead of a percentage discount. Set a fixed price — like a $25 senior rate — that members pay per session regardless of the regular price. You can also exclude certain booking products from the flat rate, keeping your premium offerings at full price.
Flat Rate with Hours
The flat rate option now supports included hours as well. Instead of only offering a discount, you can give members a set number of hours per month at a flat rate — providing even more flexibility in how you structure your membership tiers.
Excluded Product Grace Window
Membership-excluded booking products can now allow member usage within a configurable time window. For example, if a public-only bay is excluded from membership benefits, you can allow members to book it at their membership rate if it is within 1 hour of the start time. Fill last-minute availability while protecting your general inventory.
Day Pass Memberships
A new membership type that gives customers a set number of full-day passes per billing cycle. Perfect for casual golfers who want the flexibility to drop in and play for the day without committing to a full monthly membership with hourly usage.
Printable Membership Flyer + QR Code
Generate a printable flyer for any membership plan, complete with a QR code that links directly to your membership sign-up page. Post it in your facility, hand it out at events, or include it in mailers — a simple way to drive membership sign-ups offline.
Membership Plan Images
Upload a cover image for each membership plan. The image appears on the membership card when customers are browsing your plans, making each tier feel more polished and distinct.
Custom Membership Sorting
Control the order your membership plans appear to customers. Drag and drop to arrange them however you want — put your most popular tier first, group similar plans together, or order by price.
Highlighted "Most Popular" Plan
Mark one membership plan as your recommended option. It gets a visual highlight on the customer-facing page so it stands out from the rest — a proven way to guide customers toward the tier you want them to choose.
Events
Events Overhaul
Events have been completely revamped. Create multiple pricing options for the same event, link Square products directly to event tickets, and give customers a polished checkout experience. Whether it is a tournament, a clinic, or a private party — you now have full control over how events are priced and sold.
Email & Communication
Full Email Template Control
You now have complete control over your confirmation, reminder, and welcome emails. Toggle on the HTML override to replace the entire email body with your own custom template — with dynamic variable substitution for customer name, date, time, and more. Perfect if you have a branded email template you want to use instead of the default.
Admin & Reports
New Sales Report
A dedicated sales report gives you a clear breakdown of revenue across bookings, memberships, POS transactions, and events. Filter by date range, see totals, and track how your business is performing over time.
Onboarding Guide
A new step-by-step onboarding page walks you through setting up your VTee account — from configuring your schedule and bays to adding products and going live. Whether you are brand new or setting up a second location, the guide makes sure nothing gets missed.
Sim Lock Toggle
Restrict customers to your configured simulator software with a single toggle. When sim lock is enabled, the kiosk only launches the software you have assigned to each bay — customers cannot switch to other programs or access the desktop. It keeps your bays consistent and your machines secure.
Separate Admin & Customer Coloring
Your admin panel color scheme can now be different from your customer-facing pages. Keep your internal tools in a look that works for your staff while maintaining your brand's customer-facing design. Two separate palettes, zero confusion about which side of the platform you are on.
Resizable Social Buttons
Social media buttons in your website footer are now resizable. Make them prominent or subtle — whatever fits your design. Adjust the size to match the look and feel of your site without any code changes.
Expanded Analytics
Import and export your analytics data, view analytics from the very start of your business, and choose from expanded time range options. Get the full picture of your facility's performance without being limited to recent data windows.
Design Recognition
Website Builder — Built for Indoor Golf
Our website builder continues to power professional, fully-branded sites for indoor golf facilities across the country. Every site is custom-branded, mobile-friendly, and fully integrated with your VTee booking, memberships, leagues, and events. Here are a few examples of what our customers have built:
Website & Customer Experience
Google Review Block
A new website builder block pulls in your Google reviews and displays them directly on your site. Let your best customer feedback do the talking — no manual copy-pasting required.
Inline Waiver Mode
Display your full waiver policy text directly in the booking flow instead of linking to a separate page. Customers read and acknowledge the waiver inline, reducing friction and making the checkout process feel seamless.
Backfill Rewards for Imported Reservations
When you import historical reservation data into VTee, reward points are now automatically calculated and credited to customer accounts. Customers who were loyal before you switched platforms get the recognition they deserve from day one.
Bug Fixes & Performance
Performance Updates
Across-the-board speed improvements. Pages load faster, admin actions respond quicker, and the overall platform feels snappier — especially on mobile devices and during peak booking hours.
Fixed: Invalid Phone Number Bug
Resolved an issue where some valid phone numbers were incorrectly flagged as invalid during registration and login. All standard phone formats are now accepted without friction.
Fixed: Multi-Bay Booking Cancellation
Fixed an issue where cancelling one bay in a multi-bay booking would cancel the entire reservation. Customers can now cancel individual bays while keeping the rest of their booking intact.
