- Deemples expansion to Thailand, the largest market for golf in Southeast Asia, marks a major milestone in strengthening the region’s golf network and unlocking new opportunities for golfers to connect.
BANGKOK, 21 March 2025 – Deemples, Southeast Asia’s leading golf platform and mobile app, celebrated its official launch in Thailand with a grand event at Lakewood Country Club today. With the official addition of Thailand on the Deemples platform, both local and international golfers will be able to meet other golfers, book games and make seamless payments directly through the mobile app.
Deemples was born out of a simple need, to find golf buddies. What started as a solution quickly became Southeast Asia’s largest golf community, making it effortless for golfers to arrange games, whether it’s a casual round, a tournament, or a club match. With its tech-driven approach and seamless payment integration, Deemples ensures that golfers can focus on what truly matters, playing the game.
With the largest golfer user base and number of golf course partners onboard across Southeast Asia, this expansion into Thailand aims to enhance the golfing experience by fostering a more connected and accessible community, making it easier than ever for golfers to enjoy the sport anytime, anywhere.

“At its core, golf is about connections, both on and off the course. Deemples is revolutionizing how golfers meet and play by removing the barriers to organizing a game. The Thai golf community has been incredibly welcoming, with over thousands of golfers already joining our platform. No matter where you are, the language of the sport is the same, it’s about passion and the love of the game. With leading golf courses like Riverdale Golf Club, Thana City Golf Club, and Pinehurst Golf Club already onboard, Deemples is making it easier than ever to book a round, find playing partners, and enjoy seamless payments, all in one app,” said David Wong, CEO and founder of Deemples
At the launch event, leading consumer technology brand Huawei partnered with Deemples to provide its latest golf smartwatch technology, the HUAWEI WATCH GT5 Pro, as giveaways to the Deemples community.

Supporting Thailand’s thriving golf community
Mr. Kittisak Cholasueksa,(Country Head) Manager of Deemples (Thailand) Co., Ltd. stated at the event: “Thailand’s golf industry is in an upswing with rising youth participation and growing popularity amongst international players flocking to Thailand for golf getaways.
