For boat tours, kayak outfitters & excursions

Fill your trips. Keep more of your money.

SlackTide is online booking software for tour and excursion operators. A 4% platform fee plus your own booking fee to cover card costs (or more), an AI assistant that handles the admin, and a crew app that works on the water — so you spend less time at a desk and more time out there.

Everything a busy operator needs

Built with working captains and guides on the Georgia coast. One place for bookings, payments, crew, waivers and weather.

🗓️

Online booking

A booking site in your own look, with tickets, add-ons, tips, private tours and charter requests. Customers pay by card through your own Stripe account.

✨

AI assistant

“Add sunset cruises every Friday in June.” “Move the Cruz party to Saturday.” It prepares the change, you confirm it, and refunds or payment links are handled for you.

📱

Crew app

Manifests, one-tap check-in, waiver status and equipment counts on the crew's phones — even with no signal at the dock. Free push notices instead of text messages.

⛈️

Weather & tides

Forecasts, marine warnings and tides on every trip. Cancel for weather in one step and every guest gets a link to rebook or take a full refund.

✍️

Online waivers

Guests sign on their phones before the trip, or by scanning a QR code at the dock. Every signature is stored with the waiver version they agreed to.

🛶

Rentals & fleet

Kayak and paddleboard rentals with drop-off and pick-up, multi-day pricing and late fees, sharing one fleet with your tours so nothing is double-booked.

Simple, fair pricing

No monthly fee to get started. Guests pay one booking fee at checkout: SlackTide's share plus yours, as a percentage of the ticket price (never on tax or tips).

SlackTide fee

4%

of online bookings. Given back whenever a booking is refunded.

Your booking fee

+ 0–10%

You choose your own fee to cover card processing, or more. It goes straight to you.

Example: our 4% plus 3% of your own makes a typical 7% booking fee for guests, and 3% of it is yours. Card processing is charged by Stripe on your own account. You keep your customers, your data and your payouts.

Getting started is simple

We set it up with you, and your existing “Book now” buttons point to your new booking site.
