Online Booking Software For Fishing Charters

WaveRez uses a customer-paid booking fee model with no monthly subscriptions or upfront costs. A small fee is added to each online reservation that the customer pays, meaning you only pay when you make money. This is ideal for fishing charters that have seasonal fluctuations in bookings.

WaveRez is designed with charter operators in mind, with the ability to manage single boats or entire fleets. The platform handles multiple captain schedules, multi-boat availability, and complex customer management with advanced inventory controls that larger operations need, while remaining simple enough for any size charter business to use effectively.

WaveRez provides 24/7 online booking capability, so customers can reserve charters even when you’re out on trips. The system shows real-time availability and processes payments automatically, ensuring you don’t miss bookings while focusing on current customers.

WaveRez includes broadcast communication tools to quickly notify all customers about weather delays or cancellations via SMS and email. You can reschedule trips directly in the system and send updated confirmation details with a single click, reducing phone calls during weather events.
