# Golf playing rights (/en/businesses/golf/playing-rights)

A playing right gives a golfer a cheaper or free green fee at your club for as long as they hold it. In Thril a playing right is a membership with its own place in the dashboard: you manage playing rights in the golf section, and customers buy them in the **Shop** tab of your venue page, where they list above your memberships.

Because a playing right is a membership underneath, it is bought, renewed, invoiced, paused and ended exactly like one. Everything on the [memberships](/businesses/shop/memberships) pages applies, from one-season rights paid once to rights that renew every month. Emails to the holder call it a playing right instead of a membership.

## Create a playing right [#create-a-playing-right]

Create the playing right under **Playing rights** in the golf section. The form is the membership form without the benefits step: name, price, validity or renewal terms and visibility. A club often has a few, such as a full season right, a weekday right and a junior right.

A playing right gives nothing on its own. The green fee discount comes from tee time pricing.

## Set the holders' green fee [#set-the-holders-green-fee]

Holders get their price from a rule on the **Tee time pricing** page:

1. Create a pricing rule and in **Applies to** pick the playing rights it covers.
2. Set the green fee for 9 and 18 holes. A price of 0 makes the tee time free for holders.
3. Choose the courses, days, hours and validity dates the rule covers.

Different hours can carry different rules, so a weekday right can be free on weekdays and half price at weekends. A rule can also cap how many tee times a holder books per day or has upcoming. With **Only when it undercuts the normal price**, the rule applies only when it is cheaper than the price everyone else pays.

## Sell playing rights [#sell-playing-rights]

Visible playing rights show in the **Shop** tab of your venue page, above your memberships, where golfers buy them in the app or on the web. The shop's memberships setting shows or hides both. To give a right to someone who paid elsewhere, add the holder by hand from the playing right's page, the same way you add a member to a membership.

## Memberships moved to playing rights [#memberships-moved-to-playing-rights]

When playing rights arrived, memberships that a tee time pricing rule already pointed at moved to **Playing rights**, together with their holders and pricing rules. A membership that also gives benefits, quotas or court prices stayed under memberships, so those benefits stay visible to staff.

## Where playing rights stop [#where-playing-rights-stop]

Thril does not handle playing right shares, family rights, transfers between holders or guest discounts. A booking window of its own per playing right is not available either. Sales reports show playing rights together with memberships.
