How it works

From your first experience to money in the bank

Spot Slots is your booking system: one place for your times and prices, every way you sell, the day itself and the money. Here’s how it fits together.

  1. 1

    Set up in an afternoon

    Add your experiences, weekly times, prices per customer type and extras. Coming from FareHarbor? Import your experiences, prices and times in a couple of minutes.

    • Seasons, group prices, private bookings
    • Deposits, waivers, pickups
    • Connect payouts to your own Stripe account
  2. 2

    Sell everywhere at once

    Paste one line of code on your website for a Book now button and booking window. Share links and QR codes. Your experiences also go on Spot Tours, where travellers find them.

    • Your website, links and QR codes
    • The Spot Tours marketplace, map and trip planner
    • GetYourGuide, Viator, OCTO resellers and agents
  3. 3

    Run the day from one desk

    Every booking from every channel lands on the same booking desk, against the same places, so nothing is double-sold. Take walk-ins and phone bookings, check people in by QR at the door.

    • Today’s departures and passenger lists
    • Walk-ins, phone bookings and card payments on the customer’s phone
    • Staff roles: managers, front desk, guides
  4. 4

    Get paid and keep track

    Online payments go straight to your Stripe account when customers book. Reports show bookings, revenue, fees and taxes by day, experience, channel and agent, with spreadsheet downloads.

    • Paid at booking, card fees included
    • Refunds and cancellations follow your policy
    • API and webhooks for your own systems
