The story
Founded in 1993 as a golf course management software provider, Club Prophet has grown to serve 1,400 courses across 16 countries. In recent years the company was acquired by Fullsteam Operations LLC, a vertical SaaS payments consolidator, and now operates as an operating subsidiary. This unlocked embedded payments (Prophet Pay), ACH billing, and merchant cash advances (Capital Advance) — all provided by Fullsteam — turning Club Prophet from a pure operations platform into a vertical-SaaS-plus-payments business.
