Welcome to the The Repulse Bay app, where the experience of our members is our primary focus. We have developed a custom app to enhance your experience on and off property. With the touch of a button, you can request your clubs from the bag room or even view and pay your statement. We have even created a digital membership card. We also have a full member photo directory and of course, you'll get the latest updates from the club. We hope you enjoy the digital The Repulse Bay experience. Note: Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life. The The Repulse Bay app will attempt to shutdown background GPS services when they are no longer needed.
