Capability

Waivers and Licences

Waiver signature, driving licence upload, insurance capture and, where the category needs it, a sobriety check with video confirmation, collected per listed driver before arrival.

How it works

The waiver goes out with the booking confirmation and is signed online, per person, ahead of arrival. For categories that need it, each listed driver uploads a licence and any insurance detail at the same time.

Vehicle categories can add a BAC test with video confirmation before the keys move. Boat, powersports and ATV operators in several jurisdictions carry that obligation, and holding the record against the reservation is what makes it defensible later.

Documents attach to the reservation and to the person, so a returning customer is not asked twice and a group booking avoids collapsing into one signature covering six people.

Keys are heldTwo drivers still have paperwork outstanding. The vehicle cannot be released until all four items are complete for every listed driver.
The licence and the insurance are uploaded by the customer before arrival, the waiver is signed on the same link, and for anything that gets driven away a sobriety check is held against the person driving it. All four sit on the person rather than on the order, so the counter is a handover rather than a queue.

What it removes

The queue at the counter on a Saturday morning, and the rental that goes out undocumented because the queue was long.

The number to watch is the share of rentals leaving with a complete document set.

What it does not do

Bodhisys collects, stores and attaches the documents. It does not verify a licence against a government database, and none of it is legal advice about what your jurisdiction requires.

Every capability page on this site carries a section like this one. Why that is.

What is waivers and licences in rental software?

Waiver signature, driving licence upload, insurance capture and, where the category needs it, a sobriety check with video confirmation, collected per listed driver before arrival.

Bodhisys handles it as part of the platform rather than as a paid module or a partner integration. There is no monthly fee. A 4.5% charge is added to each reservation and paid by your customer at checkout.

Questions

Can each driver sign separately?

Yes. Waivers and licences are captured per listed driver rather than as one signature for a group.

Is the licence verified against a database?

No. The licence is collected, stored and attached to the reservation.

Do you support sobriety checks?

Yes, as a BAC test with video confirmation for vehicle categories, held against the reservation.

By industry

The same capability behaves differently by category. These are the per-industry versions.
