Questions from Charter Captains

Is Charterfy built specifically for fishing charters?

Yes — Charterfy is built for charter boat operators, including fishing charters. The reservation system, digital waivers, and payment flow are all designed around how charter trips actually work, not generic tour or activity bookings.

Can I collect deposits for fishing trips?

Absolutely. You can set a deposit amount (fixed or percentage) that's collected at booking, with the remaining balance due before the trip. All handled automatically through Stripe.

How do digital waivers work for fishing charters?

When a booking is confirmed, Charterfy automatically sends each guest a waiver link to sign on their phone before they arrive. No paper, no clipboards at the dock. Signed waivers are stored on the booking.

I run a one-boat operation — is this overkill?

Not at all. The Starter plan at $49/month is designed for exactly that. One captain, one boat, up to 50 reservations a month. Simple enough to set up in an afternoon.

Does Charterfy charge a fee per booking?

No. Flat monthly pricing only. Unlike FareHarbor (which adds a booking fee your customers pay) or Peek Pro (2.3% + $0.30 per reservation), Charterfy doesn't touch your booking revenue.

Can I add a first mate or second captain to my account?

Yes. You can add crew members and assign roles so they can view the schedule or manage bookings depending on what access they need.
