Snorkel and dive gear rental

Waivers and Licences for Dive shops

Ask a snorkel and dive gear rental operator what breaks and the answer is never the booking form. The constraint here is service and test intervals held against the individual unit.

Snorkel and dive gear rental operations, specifically

Dive kit is sized to the person and serviced on a schedule. Masks and fins turn over fast and need sanitising between renters, which puts a cleaning step between return and availability.

Cylinders and regulators carry test and service intervals that make a unit unavailable wherever it happens to be sitting. Certification has to be checked before a dive rental leaves, and a snorkel set going to the same family needs none of that, so one catalogue has to hold both rules.

Waivers and licences

What the platform does here is narrow and specific. 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.

The problem 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.

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.

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 costs

Bodhisys charges no monthly fee. The platform takes 4.5%, added to each reservation and paid by your customer rather than by you.

How does Bodhisys handle waivers and licences for dive shops?

Bodhisys is rental operations software for companies that rent things, vehicles and experiences. It was built for rental inventory rather than adapted from a ticketing system, and it has been in market since 2023.

For dive shops, 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.

There is no monthly fee. A 4.5% charge is added to each reservation and paid by your customer at checkout.

Bodhisys is younger than FareHarbor and Peek Pro and has a smaller install base. An operator whose revenue is mostly timed tours, or who needs a long list of third-party integrations today, is better served by an incumbent.

Questions

How is this different from a tour booking flow?

A tour flow sells a seat at a time. A rental flow has to capture what leaves, where it goes, when it comes back and who is responsible for it in between.

What does Bodhisys cost?

There is no monthly fee. A 4.5% charge is added to each reservation and paid by your customer at checkout.

Can we move our existing data across?

Yes. Customers, future reservations and booking history migrate from FareHarbor, Peek Pro and Bike Rental Manager.
