Cancellation & refunds
Last updated: October 26, 2026
These rules apply to open tee times — tee times PRESERVE has booked and lists on SHAREROUND.
When you pay
- When you apply, you register a card. Nothing is charged at that point.
- The joining fee, plus any rental clubs, is charged to that card 7 days before tee-off (the apply-by date), provided the tee time is going ahead.
- If the charge fails, we email you a payment link; the seat is released if it isn’t paid within 24 hours.
- Green fees and lunch are paid at the course and are never charged by SHAREROUND.
If you cancel
- More than 7 days before play (before the apply-by date): free. Your card isn’t charged.
- 7 to 3 days before play: the joining fee and any rental clubs are charged and not refunded.
- Within 3 days of play: the joining fee, rental clubs and the course’s cancellation fee (the green fee) are charged. PRESERVE charges the course fee to your registered card.
- You can cancel from the tee time page at any time. Your seat is released for another golfer.
- Rain or other weather with the course open counts as a cancellation by you.
If a tee time doesn’t fill
- A tee time goes ahead once the minimum number of golfers (usually 2) have applied.
- If it doesn’t reach the minimum by its apply-by date, it won’t go ahead and nobody is charged.
If the course or PRESERVE cancels
- If the course closes (for example, for weather) or PRESERVE has to cancel, you are not charged — and anything already charged is refunded in full.
Refunds go back to the card you registered and usually appear within 5–10 business days. See also the Terms of Service. Questions: concierge@preservegolfjapan.com.
