Next Round FAQs
THE PROGRAM
Next Round provides your shop with a custom trade-in microsite where members can get a quote for their clubs from home. After accepting the quoted price, they drop their clubs off at your shop and staff can confirm the quote in under two minutes.
From there, clubs are packed and shipped using boxes and labels provided by Next Round. Once received at our Richmond, VA warehouse, your shop is paid via direct deposit or check and can issue credit to your members.
Your custom microsite is available year-round, but you decide when to activate it and when to run promotional bonuses around events such as trade-in weeks, demo days, or clearance sales.

EVENTS & ACTIVATION
We built Next Round from running more than 2,000 trade-in events, and those events worked. The challenge was scheduling. Single-day events required aligning member availability, pro shop schedules, and event staff calendars — and every club wanted the same dates. They were also expensive to run, with travel, hotels, and labor costing thousands of dollars.
We evolved the model so clubs aren't tied to a single day or dependent on event staff. By removing event costs, more value goes back to members and the pro shop, while clubs can run buyback weeks and promotions on their own schedule. Results consistently match or beat traditional event volume.
Day-to-day operations.

MEMBERS & STAFF
Our pricing is competitive with other leading value guides and is designed for the shop to confidently stand behind. Values are locked once confirmed — no haggling, no re-grading after the fact.
We provide the box and prepaid label (a $20+ value), so there are no surprise costs for the member or the shop. You get paid in full for the trade-in value when we process the clubs.
Lift the bottom line.

DRIVING SALES
No. Credit stays in the shop and is not restricted by OEM rules. Members can apply it toward fittings, apparel, lessons, balls, or anything else you sell.
