Surfboard rental

Hosted Booking Site for Surf rental shops

Ask a surfboard rental operator what breaks and the answer is never the booking form. The constraint here is matching board volume to the rider who booked it.

Surfboard rental operations, specifically

Surf rental runs on fit. Height, weight and ability decide which board leaves, so the booking has to capture the rider rather than the dates alone. Dings get recorded against the individual board or they become a conversation at the counter.

Plenty of shops run walk-up and delivery side by side, which means one availability view has to serve a customer standing in front of you and a villa drop happening at the same moment.

Hosted booking site

What the platform does here is narrow and specific. A complete booking website designed, built, hosted and maintained for you by askotter, with the booking path native to the site rather than embedded into a theme somebody else maintains.

The problem it removes: paying an agency through the season to keep a website and a booking widget talking to each other. The number to watch is conversion from landing page to completed booking, and the hours a season costs you in site maintenance.

The site is built around the booking rather than around a brochure with a booking button added. Category pages, availability, delivery zones and rates all read from the same records the operation runs on, so a rate change or a new unit shows up on the public site without anybody editing a page.

Capacity, guides and guest messaging run on the same record as the rental, so a kayak for the afternoon and a guided paddle for eight arrive in one basket.

Timed capacity beside physical stock. One checkout, one confirmation, one place the guest replies to.

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 hosted booking site for surf rental 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 surf rental shops, a complete booking website designed, built, hosted and maintained for you by askotter, with the booking path native to the site rather than embedded into a theme somebody else maintains.

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.
