You keep the customer.

Checkout happens on your page and every contact lands in your own CRM, not someone else's platform.

You get paid direct.

Deposits hit your own Stripe at booking. Nothing routed through a third party first.

No surprise fee at checkout.

Your customer sees your price, not your price plus a booking fee.

Founding captain spots are limited.

We set it all up for you. Every booking and every customer stays yours.
