Get paid

Deposit to paid, in a tap

Take a deposit that holds the boat the moment it is booked, then the balance by card on the day or a payment request once the charter is signed. A group that sleeps in has already paid for the day on the water.

Less admin, more bookings

Made for boat hire businesses

Sell the day in blocks

Offer your hires as set blocks with a set price, so a morning on the tinnie or a full day on the pontoon boat is booked and paid in a minute, and a taken block comes straight off the page.

Paid before they step aboard

A group that books Saturday and sleeps in has already paid for it. Take the full hire fee or a deposit by card at booking, on the Pro plan at a flat 3%, and treat refunds as a judgement call rather than a default.

When the wind wins

Open the calendar, drag the blown-out bookings onto the next decent day and the diary is fixed before the kettle boils. You call or email the customers on your terms once the plan is settled.

Overnighters and charters by quote

A weekend houseboat run or a multi-day charter arrives as a request with dates. Send a written quote covering the boat, the bond and the fuel terms, get it signed online, and collect the deposit with a payment request email.

Common questions.

Yes, for your set hire blocks. They choose an open half-day or full-day on your branded page, pay by card and get an instant confirmation email plus a reminder the day before they head out.

You drag the affected bookings to another day on the calendar in a few seconds. There is no automatic weather system, just a fast way to rebuild the diary and tell your customers once it is sorted.

Through quotes. The customer requests their dates, you quote the hire in writing, they sign online and it converts to a booking, with the deposit collected by payment request email.

Your call per offering. Charge the lot at booking, or take a fixed or percentage deposit and settle the rest on the day, with the receipt emailed once it is paid.
