For kayak and paddleboard rental operators

    Kayak Rental Software

    Rent boats by the hour, keep singles and doubles counted separately, and sign waivers before the dock.

    No monthly platform fee — a 1.5% online booking fee on online bookings.

    What breaks first for kayak and paddleboard rental operators

    Singles, doubles, and boards get lumped into one availability number.

    Everyone signs paper waivers on a wet dock.

    Late returns wreck the next booking without anyone noticing.

    Built for how kayak and paddleboard rental operators actually operate

    Separate counts per craft type

    Singles, tandems, and boards each carry their own inventory, so you never promise a double you do not have.

    Hourly rental blocks

    Sell one-, two-, or four-hour blocks with return times enforced against the next reservation.

    Waivers with the confirmation

    Every paddler gets a waiver link at booking; unsigned names are flagged at the dock.

    Everything else that comes with it

    Real-time availability everywhere

    Website widget, phone bookings, kiosk, and partner channels all read and write the same live inventory.

    Payments without an OTA cut

    Take cards directly through Stripe at a 1.5% online booking fee. No per-booking commission on direct sales.

    Digital waivers included

    Waiver Hog waivers are built in, sent with confirmations, and tracked per guest on the manifest.

    Automated guest messaging

    Confirmations, reminders, follow-ups, and review requests fire automatically by email and SMS.

    Staff scheduling and manifests

    Assign staff, publish shifts, and hand every team member a live manifest on their phone.

    Reporting you can act on

    Revenue, occupancy, channel mix, and refunds in one place, exportable whenever you need it.

    Kayak Rental Software: common questions

    Can I track singles and doubles separately?

    Yes. Each craft type is its own inventory pool with its own availability.

    Can guests sign waivers before they arrive?

    Yes. Waiver links are sent with the confirmation and tracked per participant.

    How much does Booking Hog cost?

    Booking Hog charges a 1.5% online booking fee on online bookings. There is no monthly platform fee and no OTA-style commission on your direct sales.

    Can I take bookings on my own website?

    Yes. An embeddable widget drops the full booking flow into any website, and a hosted storefront is available if you do not have one.

    How long does setup take?

    Most operators are live in a day. You build your products, set availability rules, connect Stripe, and paste in the widget.
