- Trackman’s booking platform is delivered through YourGolfBooking (YGB) — booking.trackmangolf.com is a YGB site, and Trackman venues run booking pages on yourgolfbooking.com (checked 2026-07-10). We compare YGB’s own advertised plans separately at bookmybays.com/compare/yourgolfbooking.

- Stripe payment processing fees (typically around 1.4% + 20p) are not shown in the BookMyBays column — they apply via the underlying card processor on top of the subscription.
- Trackman launch monitors, simulator software and range technology are priced separately as hardware and licences — that cost applies whichever booking software you choose, so it is excluded on both sides.

Where Trackman is stronger
We are not the right fit for everyone. Here is where Trackman has the edge today.
Launch monitor & ball-tracking technology
Trackman is an industry leader in radar-based ball and club tracking, trusted at the top of the professional game. This is not something BookMyBays does — if you are choosing the technology in your bays, Trackman is a benchmark.
Simulator software & virtual courses
Trackman ships mature simulator software with a large library of virtual courses, games and practice modes. BookMyBays does not provide simulator content — it books the bays that run it.
Practice & performance analytics
For detailed shot data, club and ball metrics, and coaching analytics, Trackman is purpose-built. Facilities selling serious practice and instruction lean on that depth.
A single-vendor ecosystem
If your venue is built entirely on Trackman and you want hardware, simulator software and bookings from one supplier, Trackman Booking & Payments keeps everything under one roof — and the Trackman name is a draw in its own right.
