Our story

We built the booking tool we wished we had

Theybook started with a simple frustration: watching commission platforms skim thousands off hard-earned bookings. So we built software that charges a flat fee and gets out of the way.

Why we exist

The commission model is backwards

Most booking platforms make more money every time you do — taking a percentage of each sale, forever. The better your season, the bigger their cut. That math always felt upside down to us.

Theybook flips it. You pay one flat monthly fee and keep 100% of every booking, with payments landing directly in your own Stripe account. We don't touch your revenue, we don't hold your funds, and we don't get a raise when you have a good month.

In return, we focus on building the best tool we can: a booking page you can make genuinely beautiful, operations that keep up with a busy dock, and the marketing automation that quietly grows repeat business — all in one place, for one predictable price.

What we believe

The principles behind the product

01

Operators keep what they earn

We charge a flat fee and never take a cut of a booking. Your success should make you richer, not your software vendor.

02

You own your business

Your customers, your data, your booking page, your domain, your payouts. We're the tool — you're the brand.

03

Software should feel like craft

From the design studio to the manifest, we sweat the details so the everyday work of running trips feels good.

04

Pricing you can predict

No tiers that trap you, no fees that surprise you. One honest number, the same whether you have a record month or a slow one.

What we're building

Theybook is the booking layer for independent experience businesses: a storefront guests love, operations that survive a busy dock, and marketing automation that compounds — all priced so the operator keeps what they earn. We sweat conversion details (a checkout that finishes on a phone in under a minute), operational truths (manifests, check-in, resource locks that prevent double-booked boats), and growth loops (reviews, waitlists, repeat-guest emails) with equal seriousness.

We're deliberately not building a marketplace. The moment a platform starts selling your guests to the highest bidder, its incentives turn against you. Theybook's only customer is the operator.

02

Who it's for

Fishing charters and whale watches, sailing and dive boats, kayak and rafting outfitters, food and walking tours, escape rooms and adventure parks, wine trails and trail rides — any business that sells scheduled experiences by the seat, the slot or the boat. If you've ever winced at a commission invoice or apologized for a clunky booking widget, this was built for you.

Questions, answered

The short version of everything

01How much does Theybook cost?

Theybook is a flat $99/month (or $83/month billed annually) with every feature included — unlimited bookings, unlimited experiences, the full design studio, automated emails, waivers, gift cards, CRM and team accounts. There is no commission, no per-booking fee, and no setup fee. The only other cost is Stripe's standard card-processing rate, which is paid to your own Stripe account like any other payment processor.

02Do you really take 0% commission?

Yes — zero, permanently. Commission platforms typically take around 6% of every order, which on $300,000 of annual bookings is roughly $18,000 a year. Theybook's flat fee means a record month costs exactly the same as a quiet one, so every additional booking you win is pure margin.

03Who processes the payments?

Your own Stripe account. Guests pay by card at checkout and the money settles directly to your bank on Stripe's normal payout schedule. Theybook never holds, routes or touches your funds — if you ever leave, your payment history and customer relationship with Stripe remain entirely yours.

04Do I need technical skills to set it up?

No. Setup is self-serve and most operators are bookable the same day: add experiences, set availability, pick a design preset and connect Stripe. The design studio uses visual controls with a live preview, and embedding on an existing site is a single copy-paste.

05Can I use my own website and domain?

Both. You can run your Theybook booking page on your own domain as a complete storefront, or keep your current website and embed the booking widget so guests reserve without leaving your pages. Availability, pricing and customer data stay in sync either way.

06What happens to my data if I cancel?

It's yours. Bookings and customers export to CSV at any time — names, emails, booking history, lifetime value. There's no lock-in, no contract, and no hostage data: you can cancel month-to-month and take everything with you.
