The problem

Why operators switch to DiveHQ.

Most systems are built for hotels or generic tours. Liveaboards have cabins, shared beds, deposits, offline operations at sea, agency networks, and strict guest data needs.

Pain #1

Spreadsheet chaos

Cabins, passengers, supplements, agencies, payments, extras — scattered across Excel files, Drives and WhatsApp threads. Impossible to track in real time, painful to audit, error-prone every season.

→ One dashboard per trip, per cabin, per guest
Pain #2

Payment nightmares

Deposits, balances, multiple currencies, partial payments, reminders — all manually tracked. Too many places for mistakes, missed reminders, refund disputes and cash-flow surprises.

→ Automated schedules + reminders in 3 gateways
Pain #3

Guest info everywhere

Cert cards via WhatsApp, medical info in inbox attachments, dietary notes in spreadsheets. Risky for liability, impossible to find on the boat, and a nightmare for the dive guides at briefing.

→ Digital diver forms + centralized database
Platform modules

Everything in one place — from booking to onboard sales.

Each module is built around real liveaboard workflows. Not generic SaaS retrofitted for diving.

01 — Booking & trips

Cabin-based booking that reflects how you actually sell.

A flow built for cabins, shares and extras — not hotel rooms or generic tickets.

  • Booking flow: cabin → extras → guest details → payment
  • Visual cabin layout: guests pick from your deck plan (or you assign)
  • Flexible capacity: beds, shares, supplements, full charters
  • Dynamic pricing: per trip, cabin type, season + promo codes
  • Trip management: statuses, duplication, calendar view

02 — Payments

Automated deposits, balances & invoices — across currencies.

Stop chasing payments. Configure schedules once and let the system do the follow-up.

  • Stripe + Xendit + PayPal: global cards + APAC local rails
  • Payment schedules: deposit + balance, automated reminders
  • Partial payments: who paid what, per passenger
  • PDF invoices: templates + auto-send
  • Indonesian PB1 tax: strict integer math, never floats

03 — Onboard POS · Unique

The POS built for life at sea — offline-first.

Crew sell drinks, rentals and extras without admin login and without internet. Syncs when reconnected.

  • Crew access by token: fast onboarding, no admin credentials exposed
  • Offline mode: works at sea — syncs when connected
  • Per cabin/passenger: sales linked to the right guest automatically
  • Real-time stock: bar items, rentals, merchandise
  • Crew tips: automated totals + export
Why this matters The ocean has no wifi. This is where generic SaaS fails — and where DiveHQ shines.

04 — Guest management

Digital diver forms that guests actually complete.

Certifications, experience, medical, dietary notes and documents — collected automatically before the trip.

  • Customizable forms: per operator (questions, required fields)
  • Auto-sent link: triggered at J-3, re-sent every 3 days up to J-60
  • Uploads: cert cards, passport scans, insurance proof
  • e-Waivers: RSTC 2020 + PADI 10086 + PADI 10087 built-in
  • Guest database: history, preferences, tags, search

05 — Communication

Automation that feels personal — not spammy.

Set rules once: confirmations, reminders, diver forms, invoices, pre-trip info, post-trip follow-up.

  • WhatsApp Business: approved templates, multi-language, full logs
  • Email automation: Microsoft 365 / Outlook, templates, history
  • J-30 / J-14 / J-3 reminders: windowed, anti-cascade, 24h floor
  • Full audit trail: who got what, when, on which channel

06 — B2B portal

A real B2B agency portal — not "email us to book."

Give your partners real-time access, separate pricing, and a clean dashboard — while you keep control.

  • B2B rates: separate agency pricing & commission levels
  • Book on behalf: agency books, you keep ownership of guest data
  • Commission tracking: auto-computed, cabin-only, locked at confirmation
  • Locked price privacy: passengers never see the operator price
  • Agency dashboard: bookings, performance, real-time availability

FAQ

Questions operators actually ask.

How much does DiveHQ cost?

DiveHQ is €100/month net for the Liveaboard plan (up to 2 boats included), with the first 3 months free. Dive Resort is €100/month, Dive Center will be €50/month. All plans include zero commission on bookings, zero commission on payments, free Marketplace listing, unlimited users, and all future upgrades — forever.

Does DiveHQ really work offline at sea?

Yes. The onboard POS is offline-first. Your crew can record bar sales, equipment rentals and extras at sea without any internet connection. Everything syncs automatically when the device reconnects. This is uncommon in the dive industry — most generic booking platforms simply stop working when you leave port.

Are there hidden fees or booking commissions?

No. The monthly price is the only price you pay. 0% commission on bookings. 0% commission on payments processed through Stripe, Xendit or PayPal. No setup fees. Every new module and feature we release is automatically included in your existing subscription.

Who built DiveHQ?

DiveHQ is built by liveaboard owners and managers with 15+ years of operational experience on real boats. Every feature exists because the founding team needed it on their own operations. We're not generic developers retrofitting a hotel system — we're operators solving operator problems.

Can travel agencies and group leaders use DiveHQ?

Yes. The Liveaboard Partner Program is free for agencies. Agencies get a branded portal with live availability across partner boats, auto-computed cabin-only commissions, multi-booking invoicing, and locked price privacy — passengers never see the operator's net price. Apply at /agency/register.

Can guests choose their own cabin?

Yes. DiveHQ supports visual cabin layouts so guests pick their cabin from your deck plan (or you can assign manually). Cabin sharing, capacity rules, supplements and minimum-booking thresholds are fully supported. Booking flow: cabin → extras → guest details → payment.

Which payment gateways does DiveHQ support?

Stripe for international cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, JCB, UnionPay), Xendit for Southeast Asia local rails (Indonesian bank transfer, e-wallets), and PayPal. Multi-currency including USD, EUR and IDR. Indonesian PB1 tax compliance is built-in with strict integer math (never floats).

How does DiveHQ handle deposits and balances?

You configure payment schedules once — deposit, then remaining balance — and DiveHQ automates the reminders via email and WhatsApp with payment links. Partial payments are tracked per passenger. PDF invoices are auto-generated and sent.

Is DiveHQ only for liveaboards?

DiveHQ launches with the Liveaboard module — the most complex dive vertical. Dive Resort and Dive Center modules are on the roadmap and will be activated through the same platform as soon as ready. Existing customers automatically receive new modules at no extra cost.

How is my data isolated from other operators?

DiveHQ is multi-tenant by design. Every operator runs on its own isolated database with daily encrypted backups. Data is never mixed with another operator's. Each operator also gets a dedicated subdomain (e.g. your-operator.divehq.cloud). 99.9% uptime guaranteed.

Can I embed DiveHQ on my existing website?

Yes. DiveHQ offers an embeddable booking widget (iframe or JS) that drops into any website. Mobile-first and brandable. You can also use a custom subdomain (your-operator.divehq.cloud) or fully white-label with your own domain (book.yourliveaboard.com).

What if I want to leave? Do I own my data?

You own your data, full stop. We provide standard-format exports any time and help with migration if you decide to move on. There's no lock-in beyond the value the platform delivers.
