Green fee
The charge for playing a golf course.
A green fee pays for access to play a course under a stated rate. The price may depend on the number of holes, day, starting time and eligibility for a concession. It does not describe every cost of the visit.

| Illustrative charge | USD |
|---|---|
| Green fee | 40 |
| Cart seat | 15 |
| Club rental | 20 |
| Subtotal before any tax | 75 |
If a USD 10 deposit is credited toward this green fee, the subtotal is still USD 75. The deposit changes what remains to pay; it is not an extra charge.
Check what the rate includes
Look for cart or walking access, hire clubs, tax and any booking fee. At Fraserview, an advance-booking charge is separate from the green fee. Nine-hole and twilight rates can have different starting-time restrictions.
Pay per round or buy a pass
A playing pass may cover rounds on particular days. A booking card or club subscription may instead provide earlier reservations, discounts or competitions. Check included rounds, eligible days and renewal costs before treating an annual fee as unlimited golf.
