Share Marketplace vs Peek Pro for boat rental

Both take online bookings with waivers. They differ on per-boat fleet management, deposits and holds, the dock-side flow, and the pricing model.

The short version

Peek Pro is booking software for tours and activities, with waivers, scheduling and marketing tools, priced on a commission or subscription basis. Captained trips and guided experiences fit it naturally.

Share Marketplace is rental software: each boat or jet ski is a unit with its own hourly calendar and buffer, the rental agreement and a waiver per adult are signed before launch, the Transport Canada safety checklist is stored with the booking, deposits are held on the card, and the crew runs the day from a departures board.

If you sell experiences with a guide, compare the tour features. If you hand the keys to the customer, the fleet and paperwork side is where Share is built.

Questions about share marketplace vs peek pro for boat rental

Does Share Marketplace handle captained trips?

Yes. A boat can be offered captained or bareboat, with per-person pricing and add-ons, and every guest signs their own waiver.

Is the safety checklist required?

In Canada a pleasure-craft rental requires a safety checklist signed by the operator. Share stores it with the booking so a copy is always on hand.

What does Share Marketplace cost for a boat rental business?

Share Marketplace is priced per transaction, from 1% to 3% depending on the plan, rather than a monthly licence per user. Current plans and what each one includes are on the pricing page.
