Golf cart rental software with no keys to hand out

Axons Mobility is golf cart fleet software for rental shops, resorts, beach towns and communities that rent carts without keys. Guests book ahead or walk up and unlock a cart by QR code or NFC key card, and you track every cart on a live GPS map, with zones, payments and repairs in one console. Go live with guests in as little as 3 weeks.

How a rental works on Axons Mobility

From the guest's booking to the receipt, in five steps.

  1. The guest books or walks up

    They book a cart for a later time in your app, or rent one on the spot.

  2. They unlock without a key

    They scan the QR code on the cart in your app, or tap their NFC key card on the cart's reader.

  3. First ride: ID and deposit

    Switch on an ID and selfie check for the fleet, and take a refundable deposit if you want one.

  4. They drive, you watch live

    You see the cart move on your map. Zones warn the guest near a boundary and log each time they cross one.

  5. They park and pay

    The app shows the nearest parking zone, takes a photo if you require one, and gives an itemised receipt.

  6. You see the money and the carts

    Payments land in your own Stripe account, and the console shows which carts need a charger or a repair.

Golf cart reservation and booking software

Guests who plan ahead book a cart for later; guests who walk up rent one on the spot. Both run in the same app and console.

  • Guests book a cart for a later date and time in your app, with the plan they want, such as a full day
  • Bookings are counted against the carts you can rent, so a fleet is never booked twice over
  • Nothing is charged at booking and cancelling is free; the usual price is taken at pickup
  • A reminder before the start, and at pickup the guest unlocks any free cart of that fleet
  • Your team sees every upcoming reservation in the console and can cancel one; no-shows are marked by themselves

Made for walk-up and self-service rentals

Some rental software is a booking calendar. Axons Mobility is connected fleet software: guests rent a cart on the spot, and every cart reports where it is, so rentals run without a desk.

Works with the devices already on your carts

No new hardware to buy. If the device on a cart shares location, battery and lock status and takes lock and unlock commands, our team connects it, any brand. Classic carts without a device can use Blync Pulse from Blync Labs.

See the devices we support. What a cart can do, such as remote lock or a key card reader, depends on its device.

Keyless rentals with GPS tracking and geofencing

No keys to hand out, lose or copy. Guests scan a QR code or tap a key card to start and end a rental, and you follow and control every cart on a live GPS map.

Scan to Ride in your app

Your own branded rider app, built and published for you, on iOS and Android in 8 languages.

NFC key cards

On carts with a card reader, enrol a card with one tap. Choose if it opens one cart or all of them, and see every tap.

Remote lock and immobilise

Lock, unlock, switch the ignition off or force-stop a ride from the map, where the cart's device allows.

Geofencing zones

Service area, no-go, speed limit, parking and charging zones, drawn on your map.

Zones warn your guests

Guests are warned when they enter a no-go zone or leave the service area, with a banner in slow zones.

Every breach on replay

Every zone breach is recorded, so you can replay the rental and see exactly where it happened.

Charge the way your guests rent, at every location

Hourly walk-ups, day passes or free rides for residents, paid into your own Stripe account. Each location is its own fleet.

Hourly, flat or free

Charge per hour, per km, a flat fee or nothing, with prices by time of day and a price cap per ride.

Passes and promo codes

Sell day, week and month passes and ride packs that apply on their own, plus promo codes with budget caps.

Paid into your Stripe

Cards are charged straight into your own Stripe account, with a rider wallet and automatic top-up.

Fleets per location

Separate pricing and zones for each site, with staff limited to their own fleet.

Books that keep themselves

Rider payments, passes, deposits and top-ups record themselves. See profit and loss and a balance sheet.

Guests and residents

Add residents or guests to a private fleet in bulk, with starting credit to spend on rides.

Fleet management: charging, repairs and anti-theft

See which carts need a charger or a technician. When a cart comes back damaged, you have the route, the photo and how it was driven.

Battery at a glance

Every cart's battery on the live map, so staff know which carts to charge next.

Health score per cart

A health score for every cart, with alerts that turn into pre-filled work orders.

Repairs with parts stock

Work orders with quality checks, parts taken from stock automatically and a record of each technician's jobs.

Photo and itemised receipt

End rentals with a parking photo where you require one, and an in-app receipt with the route and each charge.

Anti-theft and crash alerts

Where the cart's device reports it, get an alert when a locked cart moves or falls over, and after a crash the guest's phone asks “Are you OK?”

Ride Replay

Replay any rental on the map, with harsh braking, speeding and zone breaches marked where they happened.

Cart rental questions

What is golf cart rental software?

Rental software runs a cart rental business from one place: guests start and pay for rentals, staff see where every cart is, and the business manages zones, charging, repairs, pricing and payments. Axons Mobility does this with a branded rider app and an operator console, working with the connected device already on each cart.

Does Axons Mobility include GPS tracking?

Yes. Every cart shows on a live GPS map with its battery, and each rental's route is saved so you can replay it. Draw a service area and guests are warned the moment they leave it, with every breach recorded. The location comes from the connected device on the cart, which our team connects for you.

How do I track carts in a gated community?

Axons Mobility shows every cart on a live GPS map. You set up a private fleet that only residents and their guests can use, with NFC key cards or your own branded rider app. Geofenced zones warn drivers who leave the community or enter a no-go area, and every breach is saved on Ride Replay. You can lock or immobilise a cart remotely, and it works with the devices already on your carts.

How long does it take to launch rentals with Axons Mobility?

Your console and a private fleet are ready right after a short intro call. Going live with riders takes as little as 3 weeks: our team builds your branded app, Apple and Google review it, and your vehicles join as soon as their devices are connected. A new kind of device adds the time our team needs to connect it.

Can guests reserve a golf cart in advance?

Yes. Guests book a cart of a fleet for a later date and time in your app, with the plan they want, and bookings are counted against the carts you can rent, so a fleet is never booked twice over. Nothing is charged at booking and cancelling is free; at pickup the guest unlocks any free cart of that fleet and the usual price is taken then.

Can guests rent a cart without an app?

Yes. Axons Mobility supports NFC key cards: if the cart's device has a card reader, you enrol a card by tapping it there, choose if it opens one cart or all of them, and a tap starts or ends the rental. Guests who prefer their phone scan the cart's QR code in your app.

Do I need to buy new hardware for my carts?

No. Axons Mobility sells no hardware. It works with the connected device already on your carts, from any maker, as long as it shares location, battery and lock status and takes lock and unlock commands. Our team connects it for you.

How much does Axons Mobility cost?

Axons Mobility's Neuron plan is $499 a month with 25 carts, 1,000 transactions and 500 new riders included, then $4 per cart per month above 25, with a one-off $1,500 to get started. Each plan includes a monthly allowance of rider payments; above it, revenue sharing applies, so our revenue grows only when yours does. Packs and add-ons are priced separately. Our team sets up a free 15-day trial on your own carts.
