Meet the Team

At Flush, we operate with the same mindset that drives golf tournament success - precision, strategy, and teamwork. We’re on a mission to revolutionise how golf clubs operate and how golfers experience the game.

  • Our technology simplifies, not complicates - giving clubs smarter control and golfers a seamless experience from tee to green.

  • Our vision is to become the digital backbone of golf across Africa and beyond, where every round is optimized, every player feels valued, and every club operates at its full potential.

  • Together, Ross Morley-Jepson and Luke Payne combine financial strategy, AI engineering, and a shared passion for golf to build a platform that keeps the game and business flowing.

  • Co-Founder & CEO

    Ross brings venture grit, financial precision, and a deep love for the game to Flush.
    As Lead Analyst at Africa Bitcoin CorporationAfrica’s first publicly listed Bitcoin treasury company on the JSE — Ross helped pioneer a new asset class in South African capital markets, shaping how digital assets integrate into institutional finance.

    Before that, he played a key role at Altvest Capital & ACOF, where he executed and presented over R100 million in funding approvals across agriculture, renewable energy, and retail. Ross was instrumental in the Summit Deals software onboarding into ACOF’s operations, driving the transition from legacy spreadsheets to real-time institutional reporting and automating investor workflows.

    A former A-Team Golf Captain with a 3.1 handicap, Ross knows that excellence — in golf or business — comes down to timing, precision, and relentless follow-through. He holds a BCom (Hons) in Economic Analysis of Financial Markets and a BCom in Finance from UCT.

    At Flush, Ross leads strategy, partnerships, and commercialisation — turning the numbers behind the fairway into real, scalable growth.
