↑ 5%Clubessential expands Next Gen Mobile App with new member experience enhancements and Avigilon Alta integration. June 10, 2026 Experience-driven and location-aware, the Clubessential Mobile App now brings reservations, communication, payments, engagement, and physical club access into one connected member journey. Atlanta, GA - Clubessential, the leading provider of comprehensive software solutions for private clubs and public golf courses under Xplor Technologies, today announced significant enhancements to its Next Gen Mobile App, including new member experience improvements and a strategic integration with Avigilon Alta, enabling secure mobile access throughout the club. As member expectations continue to evolve, clubs are seeking technology that delivers convenience, personalization, and seamless experiences across every interaction. Experience-driven and location-aware, the Clubessential Mobile App creates one connected member journey across every touchpoint of club life - bringing reservations, communication, payments, engagement, and now physical club access into a single seamless experience. Built as part of the Clubessential Essential Suite, the Next Gen Mobile App serves as a digital hub for members, providing access to dining and event reservations, tee times, statements and billing, mobile ordering, club communications, member directories, messaging, and more. Fully integrated with Clubessential's core solutions, the app helps clubs increase engagement, streamline operations, and deliver a more modern member experience. The latest enhancements introduce a redesigned home screen, intuitive navigation, enhanced member and staff directories, streamlined messaging capabilities, and expanded personalization options that allow members to quickly access the information, services, and experiences most relevant to them. "Today's members expect every interaction with their club to be simple, connected, and personalized," said Stacy Zak, Vice President of Product Management at Clubessential. "Our vision is to create a single digital experience that supports the entire member journey - from discovering events and making reservations to communicating with staff, making purchases, and now accessing club facilities. These enhancements, combined with our Avigilon Alta integration, help clubs deliver that next-generation experience." A key addition to the platform is the new integration with Avigilon Alta, bringing secure, mobile-first access control directly into the Clubessential Mobile App. Through the integration, members can use the Clubessential Mobile App as a secure digital credential, eliminating the need for physical key cards and fobs while simplifying access across the property. Powered by Avigilon Alta's patented Triple Unlock technology, members can unlock doors and access secured areas with a simple wave of their hand or phone near a reader - without removing their device from a pocket, purse, or golf bag. The integration enables clubs to modernize access management while enhancing security, improving operational visibility, and delivering a more convenient and frictionless member experience. "As clubs continue to invest in technology that enhances the member experience, physical access is becoming an important part of the digital journey," added Zak. "By integrating Avigilon Alta directly into the Clubessential Mobile App, we're helping clubs eliminate friction and create a more connected experience from arrival to departure."

The company pledges increased investment in product development, compliance features and operational efficiency tools. Richard North, VP of Commercial Operations, Education ANZ, said the merger strengthens capabilities without disrupting day-to-day operations. The combined entity aims to address sector pressures including workforce challenges, rising costs and evolving compliance requirements through enhanced technology infrastructure and streamlined financial systems.
