Sound familiar?

Bookings in a spreadsheet, availability in your head

Customer details on scraps of paper. Waivers somewhere in your inbox. You know there's a better way.

"How many spaces left?" while you're driving to a venue

"Can I book Saturday?" on Friday at 11pm via WhatsApp.
Missed messages, missed bookings, missed revenue.

"Has everyone done their waiver?" — silence.

It was emailed last week. Two people didn't open it. One filled in the wrong form.
The session starts in ten minutes and you still don't know who's asthmatic.

"Did I get paid for last Saturday?"

Your guides shouldn't have to chase you. But when payments are tracked in a spreadsheet you update at midnight on Sunday, and they insist on being paid cash...

Spending more time on the phone than on the water

Booking enquiries, schedule changes, directions to the meeting point. You started this business to be outdoors — not to run a call centre from your van.

  • Sessions colour-coded by activity, off-days clearly marked

  • Individual signing links for each participant
  • Under-18 guardian signing flow
  • Automated reminders for unsigned waivers
  • Every signature timestamped and stored

Questions? We've got answers.

What counts as a participant? +
Anyone who books a spot on one of your activities. If someone books a coasteering session for themselves, that's one participant (£1). If they book for a group of four, that's four participants (£4). Simple.
Are there really no other fees? +
BookWild charges £1 per participant. That's it. Standard payment processing fees from Stripe apply (1.5% + 20p per transaction for UK cards), but those are Stripe's fees, not ours — and they're the same fees you'd pay with any payment processor.
What if I have a quiet month? +
You pay less. No bookings? No charge. That's the whole point of per-participant pricing. You shouldn't be paying for software when there's nobody on the water.
Can I cancel anytime? +
Yes. No contracts, no notice periods, no cancellation fees. If BookWild isn't right for you, you can leave whenever you like. We'd rather earn your loyalty than lock you in.
Is this built for big activity centres? +
No — and that's deliberate. BookWild is built for small adventure operators: the coasteering guide with three freelancers, the kayak company running trips from a car park, the gorge walking outfit that doesn't need a 200-feature enterprise platform. If that sounds like you, you're exactly who we built this for.
I'm a solo operator — isn't this too much? +
No. Switch off the bits you don't use — guides, equipment, extra bases — and BookWild hides them. You're left with just what you need: bookings, payments, and your calendar. Turn things back on whenever you're ready to grow.
