These top-notch golf brands selected Shopatron for its unique retail-integrated platform that allows orders completed on their websites to be processed and delivered by one of their local dealers. In addition to their retail-integrated eCommerce stores, golf brands on Shopatron also benefit from Shopatron's mobile-optimized browsing and checkout, as well as the company's international support in 14 countries.

"We are excited about the growth we are seeing in the golf industry, and, in particular, the outstanding response these brands are getting from their retail partners," says Shopatron founder and CEO Ed Stevens. "No retailer wants to see a brand they carry begin selling direct online. It's competition from someone on their own team, and nobody needs that. But Shopatron allows brands to sell online and integrate their retailers into the fulfillment process, enabling both parties to reap the benefits from the growing online sales channel."

Shopatron will be attending the PGA Golf Show in Orlando, FL on January 25-28. Brands and retailers interested in learning more about Shopatron at the show can contact Shopatron at 866-625-5050 or [email protected] to set up an appointment.
