Premium Plaques Fabricated for Your Course — Sponsor Surfaces, QR Codes, and Emergency Info Built In

HPS Golf plaques replace the face on your existing hole monuments and outfit your cart fleet — adding sponsor branding, embedded QR codes, and emergency information without ripping out what you already have in the ground. Fabricated by Happy Path Studios. Managed through HPS Golf.

Built by Happy Path Studios. Designed for the Outdoors.

Every HPS Golf plaque is designed and fabricated by Happy Path Studios — the creative and production studio behind the platform. Physical plaques are not outsourced. The same team that builds the software builds what goes on the course.

UV Printing with Raised Texture

Dimensional UV printing creates a raised surface finish that gives plaques a tactile, premium feel. The texture is permanent and weather-resistant — not a film or coating.

Outdoor-Safe Materials

Plaques are fabricated from materials engineered for outdoor permanence — UV-stable, water-resistant, and rated to hold up through freeze-thaw cycles, humidity, and direct sun exposure season after season.

Weather Durability Built In

Substrate, inks, and surface treatments are all selected for outdoor golf course conditions. Colour stability, edge durability, and QR code legibility are maintained regardless of season or climate.

Custom Club Branding

Each plaque carries the club's identity — logo, colour palette, and typeface integrated into the face design. No generic templates. Every plaque reflects the club it was built for.

Sponsor-Ready Panel Layout

Sponsor placement is engineered into the face design — not added as an afterthought. Sponsor branding occupies a premium, clearly defined zone that meets the expectations of local business sponsors.

QR Integration Built to Last

QR codes are embedded into the fabrication — not stickered on. Each code is sized, positioned, and protected so it remains scannable under outdoor lighting conditions after years of use.

Swap-Ready Sponsor Panels

The system is designed for modular sponsor panel replacement. When a sponsor changes, only the sponsor panel needs to be reproduced — not the full plaque face. The base, QR, and structure carry forward.

Platform-Configured Production

Every plaque specification — sponsor content, QR destination, cart numbering, hole assignment — is configured inside HPS Golf before anything is fabricated. Production runs from the platform, not from emails.


From Static Hole Marker to Smart Sponsor Surface

Most courses already have permanent hole monuments installed in the ground. They display a hole number and not much else. HPS Golf does not ask clubs to rip them out. Instead, the HPS Golf upgrade system replaces the face and adds a full sponsor-ready, QR-connected surface — turning an existing infrastructure asset into an active revenue and engagement layer.

A Hole Monument Upgrade System

Upgrade the Face. Keep the Foundation.

Clubs invest in permanent hole monuments because they are durable and professional. The HPS Golf upgrade approach respects that investment. The existing monument structure stays in the ground. HPS Golf replaces the face with a premium sponsor-ready surface — adding dimensional texture, QR capability, and modular sponsor panels without the cost or disruption of full replacement.

What the upgrade includes

Premium raised UV texture The new face uses a raised UV printing process that creates a dimensional, high-end surface finish — giving each plaque a premium physical presence that matches the club's standards.
Sponsor-ready panel layout The face is designed around a sponsor panel — a clearly defined area for the assigned sponsor's branding, name, and visual identity. Local businesses get a premium, permanent placement at every hole.
Integrated QR surface A durable QR code is embedded into the face — connecting golfers directly to the hole's live digital experience inside the HPS Golf platform every time they scan.
Modular sponsor panel — coming The system is being designed for modular sponsor panel replacement. When a sponsor changes, only the panel is swapped — not the entire plaque face. Monument structure and QR remain constant.

Why clubs choose upgrades over replacements

Existing investment is preserved Permanent monument foundations represent real cost. HPS Golf upgrades work with the structure already in the ground — not against it.
Lower barrier to activation Upgrading 18 holes is significantly less disruptive and costly than a full replacement project. Clubs can activate the sponsor surface layer quickly across the entire course.
Sponsor revenue starts immediately Once the upgraded face is installed and the sponsor is assigned inside HPS Golf, the revenue surface is live — measurable QR engagement begins from the first round.
Platform-managed from day one Hole assignments, sponsor content, QR destinations, and campaign activity are all managed inside HPS Golf — no external tools, no separate vendor relationship.

B Cart Plaque System

Every Cart, a Revenue Surface and Safety Asset

The golf cart is the most consistently used surface on the course. Every golfer rides in one for the entire round. HPS Golf cart plaques turn that surface into a working platform asset — carrying sponsor branding, QR engagement, cart identification, and emergency information in a single durable plaque installed on every cart.

What every cart plaque carries

Sponsor branding The assigned sponsor's branding occupies a prominent position on the cart face — giving local businesses a premium, high-visibility placement for the full duration of every round.
Cart identification Clear cart numbering connects the physical cart to the HPS Golf operational layer — enabling staff service requests, tee sheet intelligence signals, and operational location awareness.
QR engagement code A scannable QR code gives golfers instant access to the cart's live digital page — sponsor offers, course service requests, and HPS Golf experiences directly from the cart at any hole.
Emergency information The course emergency contact number, cart number, and facility address are permanently embedded on every cart plaque — available to golfers and first responders at the exact location of an incident.

C Digital Surface Layer

Every QR Code Is a Live Door Into the Platform

The physical plaque is permanent. The digital content behind it is not. When a golfer scans a QR code on any HPS Golf surface, they are connecting to a live, platform-managed page that the club controls — updated instantly, without touching the physical plaque. When sponsors change, the digital page changes. The plaque stays.

Sponsor About Pages

Every sponsor assigned to a plaque surface gets a dedicated digital about page managed through HPS Golf. Golfers who scan see the sponsor's branding, active offer, business information, and any live campaign running on the platform. Sponsors get a real digital presence — not just a logo on a sign.

Cart Digital Pages

Each cart QR links to a live cart page showing the assigned sponsor, available course services, and any active content configured by the club. When the sponsor assignment changes inside HPS Golf, the cart page updates immediately — without touching the physical plaque on the cart.

Hole Experience Pages

Hole monument QR codes link to hole-specific digital experiences — sponsor content, hole information, active promotions, and engagement features configured by the club. Each hole can carry its own campaign, its own sponsor story, and its own live content.

Golfer-Linked Scan Experiences

As the HPS Golf platform matures, QR scans will connect to the golfer's portable identity — personalising sponsor offers based on scan history, round data, and golfer profile. Every scan today contributes to a richer, smarter experience tomorrow.


Order, Track, and Manage Every Plaque Inside HPS Golf

HPS Golf plaques are not a separate product or a third-party vendor relationship. The entire lifecycle — configuration, ordering, production tracking, installation, and replacement — runs through the platform. Every plaque the club has ever ordered lives in a registry that connects the physical surface to its digital counterpart.

1

Configure in the App

Set up every cart and hole plaque inside HPS Golf before anything is fabricated — assigning sponsors, configuring QR destinations, adding emergency information, and specifying surface type. The platform generates a complete plaque specification ready to send to production.

2

Place Your Order

Submit the order through HPS Golf. Quantity, surface finish, sponsor panel layout, and delivery address are all captured in the platform. No external form, no email chain — the order is placed and tracked in the same system the club uses every day.

3

Track Production Status

Monitor production and delivery inside the HPS Golf dashboard. Know the status of every plaque in your order — in production, shipped, or installed. No chasing down external vendors or waiting on email updates.

4

Manage the Registry

Every installed plaque is registered in the platform — linked to its cart or hole, its assigned sponsor, its QR destination, and its production history. When a replacement or sponsor change is needed, the workflow runs directly from the registry.

Plaque Registry

Every plaque on the course is logged in the platform — cart number, hole assignment, sponsor, install date, and current QR destination all in one place.

Sponsor Change Workflow

When a hole sponsor changes, the digital page updates instantly. If a new physical panel is needed, the reorder is triggered from the same registry record.

Replacement Workflow

Damaged or worn plaques are replaced through HPS Golf — reusing the existing configuration so production specs, sponsor assignments, and QR codes carry forward automatically.

Physical + Digital Always in Sync

The registry keeps the physical course and the platform in alignment. What is installed on the course is always reflected inside HPS Golf — no manual reconciliation.
