Good to know

Questions operators
ask us first.

01

We already use a booking tool — why switch?

+

Booking software sells the slot — TIDEFORCE runs the school. A booking tool fills your calendar, but instructors, groups, equipment, guest updates and reporting still live in spreadsheets and chats. TIDEFORCE connects every step after the booking, so every booking becomes operationally usable, not just stored in a calendar.

02

How does onboarding work?

+

Onboarding is founder-led. New schools do not just get access to software — we help map the real workflow first: booking and payments, planning, team, guests, gear and shop. We want to understand how your school actually runs before we show you how TIDEFORCE fits.

03

What does TIDEFORCE cost?

+

Our standard model is transaction-based: 6.9% per processed transaction, payment fees included — no setup fee, no fixed monthly cost. TIDEFORCE only earns when your school earns. Modular and enterprise setups are scoped together with you; final terms are confirmed in your demo.

04

Does it work for multiple locations and wintersports?

+

Yes — TIDEFORCE is multi-location ready from day one. From watersports to wintersports, from one location to many, it's built to scale with modern outdoor schools.

05

Is it really mobile-first?

+

100% mobile-first — for guests, teams and operators. Guests book and check in by QR from their phone, your team sees the live schedule in the team app, and you have live access to bookings, schedules, guests and inventory data 24/7.
