Case Study: Calusa Pines Golf Club achieves 60% payment digitization, time savings, fraud reduction and $20K in rebates with Edenred Pay

Prestigious golf club converts 60% of supplier payments from check to virtual card to save time, reduce fraud, and earn net new income

Calusa Pines Golf Club, a prestigious private club in Naples, FL, was processing all supplier invoices by paper check—manual cutting, signing and mailing tied up accounting staff, caused lost or damaged checks, and increased fraud risk. To automate accounts payable and improve security and efficiency, Calusa Pines engaged Edenred Pay to deploy a virtual card–based payments solution.

Edenred Pay integrated with the club’s Northstar accounting system, guided the team through initial runs, and transitioned about 60% of supplier payments to virtual cards while coordinating with suppliers to maximize rebate opportunities. As a result, Calusa Pines achieved significant time savings, reduced fraud exposure with real-time tracking of card activity, and earned $20,000 in rebate revenue since joining in January 2020.
