In collaboration with the Malaysian Golf Association (MGA), Deemples introduces an all-new earn-as-you-play membership that combines exclusive golf benefits, official WHS handicap services and lifestyle privileges into a single app.
Deemples, Southeast Asia’s leading golf booking and community platform, has launched Deemples Pass, a fully digital golf membership designed to reward golfers for every round they play while supporting their journey from casual play to competitive golf.
Developed in collaboration with the Malaysian Golf Association (MGA), Deemples Pass brings together golf rewards, recognised handicap services and lifestyle privileges through a single membership managed entirely within the Deemples app.
The launch comes as the golf industry continues to explore new ways to encourage participation and strengthen golfer engagement. As players increasingly look for greater value from their leisure and fitness activities, memberships that reward participation while supporting progression in the sport are becoming increasingly relevant.
For almost a decade, Deemples has connected golfers with tee times and playing partners across Southeast Asia. With Deemples Pass, the platform is expanding beyond golf bookings to offer a more integrated membership experience that combines digital convenience, rewards and recognised golfing credentials.
“Deemples was built to solve a very simple problem: helping golfers find other people to play with. As golfers spend more time with the sport, they want an experience that gives them more than just a round of golf,” said David Wong, Founder and CEO of Deemples.
“With so many activities competing for people’s time today, Deemples Pass was created to give golfers more reasons to stay connected to the game they love, rewarding them every time they play and making every round count.”
Supporting Golfers From Casual Play to Competition
A key feature of Deemples Pass is its collaboration with the Malaysian Golf Association (MGA), which enables eligible members to obtain a recognised World Handicap System (WHS) handicap.
The WHS service allows golfers to accurately track their progress and supports their participation in amateur competitions in Malaysia and internationally.
“Deemples has built one of the most active golf communities in the region and we are proud to collaborate with them on World Handicap System (WHS) recognition through Deemples Pass,” said Admiral (R) Tan Sri Mohd Anwar Mohd Nor, President of the Malaysian Golf Association (MGA).
“Through Deemples’ marketing reach and digital distribution, we have an opportunity to introduce the official WHS to more golfers than ever before, helping to strengthen player development and foster greater participation in competitive golf.”
What Deemples Pass Offers
Deemples Pass is designed to provide value throughout a golfer’s journey, with key benefits including:
- Fully digital membership: The membership is managed through the Deemples app, eliminating the need for a physical membership card.
- Earn-as-you-play rewards: Members can access greater discounts, higher cashback on tee-time bookings, golf vouchers and member-only benefits as they play more often.
- Official WHS handicap services: Eligible members can obtain a recognised WHS handicap through Deemples’ collaboration with MGA, supporting participation in amateur competitions locally and internationally.
- Golf and lifestyle privileges: Members can access exclusive offers from participating golf courses, resorts and selected lifestyle partners through a single membership.
Backed by Golf Courses and Lifestyle Partners
Deemples Pass has also attracted participation from golf courses and industry partners, with clubs and brands offering exclusive privileges and bespoke vouchers to members.
Among the participating partners is Mizuno, which is leveraging Deemples’ golfer community to connect with engaged players through exclusive member privileges.
Seri Selangor Golf Club has also continued its collaboration with Deemples, using its booking technology and marketing capabilities to attract golfers, improve course utilisation and encourage repeat play.
Meanwhile, Kelab Rahman Putra Malaysia (KRPM) sees the partnership as an opportunity to introduce a new generation of golfers to the club while maintaining the experience valued by its existing members.
“Our partnership with Deemples has helped us do exactly that by introducing more golfers to our club during tee times that would otherwise be underutilised, while preserving the experience our members value,” said Jack Loi, Captain of Kelab Rahman Putra Malaysia.
“Deemples Pass builds on this by making it even easier to welcome prospective members in a way that benefits golfers without compromising the exclusivity of club membership.”
