FAQs GOLF CANADA KIOSK
WHY THE GOLF CANADA KIOSK? The kiosk web address is generally used at the course because of its basic features and user-friendly interface. There is no password required for entry, making the system easily accessible. The kiosk is limited to allowing its users to enter their scores, both at your home course and away courses and view their scoring history. The golfcanada.ca site is far more robust. This is the site for administrative work (adding members, generating reports, etc). For your members, the site offers the ability to enter scores from anywhere with a computer and internet access as well as track their statistics. It is important to note that scores entered on either the kiosk or at golfcanada.ca go to the same internet server instantaneously, even though they are different web addresses. Note: New members will be requested to accept the Terms and Conditions for the Golf Canada Score Centre. This process can be completed on either the kiosk or online.
