Important Update for Club Members

Dear Members,

I would like to take this opportunity to wish you and your families a very Happy New Year!

We are grateful for your continued support over the festive period and excited to share some important updates for 2025.

Exciting New Changes at The National Yacht Club

We are thrilled to announce that the National Yacht Club has recently installed a new Club operating software system.

This upgrade brings a host of new features designed to enhance your experience and benefit our members in several keyways.

New Member Cards & Access System

New member cards are now available for collection at the Manager’s office. These cards are required for access to the Club’s new door and gate entry system.

In the coming week, you will receive an email containing a link to activate your member card on your smartphone. This will allow you to:

• Access the Club premises
• Top up your account and make payments
• Use the app for across-the-counter payments
•  

Introducing a Cashless System at the Club

We’re excited to announce that, effective January 10th, the club will be transitioning to a cashless payment system.

This change is being implemented alongside the rollout of our new software, which will streamline our operations and enhance the overall member experience.

 What does this mean for you?
All transactions moving forward will be completed using either your member card or a credit/debit card. This shift will bring numerous benefits, including:

• Enhanced security: Reducing the amount of cash on site improves the safety of both our members and staff.
• Faster transactions: Enjoy quicker, more seamless payment processing for a smoother experience.
• Simplified tracking: Easier to manage payments and access transaction history through digital records.

We are confident that this change will improve convenience and efficiency for everyone.

Thank you for your understanding and support as we make this transition. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out!

We hope these new features will make your experience at the Club even more seamless and convenient.
