I am a one-man show who does delivery, and before SurfShare I had to track addresses and return dates on a spreadsheet. Now everything is taken care of for me, I have a branded store and don't have any manual process bringing me down.

Common Questions About SurfShare
Everything you need to know about getting started
We're a small shop - is SurfShare really for us?
Absolutely! SurfShare is designed for rental businesses of all sizes. Whether you're a one-person operation or managing multiple locations, our platform scales with you. The setup is quick and intuitive, and you'll start seeing benefits immediately.
We've been doing this manually for 25 years - why change now?
Many successful rental businesses started with manual processes, but automation doesn't mean losing what works. SurfShare automates the time-consuming tasks (inventory tracking, bookings, waivers) so you can focus on what you do best. Most of our customers wonder why they didn't switch sooner.
How is inventory managed from online and in person bookings?
Our platform syncs inventory in real-time across all channels. When someone books online, your inventory is automatically updated. When you check equipment out in-person, the same system tracks it. Everything stays synchronized so you never have double bookings or lose track of equipment.
How long does it take to get set up?
Most shops are up and running within 30 minutes. You can import your existing inventory, set up your pricing, and customize your booking flow. Our onboarding team is available to help, and many shops are taking bookings the same day they sign up.
How do digital waivers work?
Customers sign waivers directly online during checkout, or you can have them sign on a tablet in-store. All waivers are stored securely in your account and instantly accessible. No more paper forms, filing cabinets, or lost documents. You can customize waiver language to match your business needs.
What payment methods do you support?
We integrate with Stripe to accept all major credit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and cash payments. Handle deposits, refunds, and future charges seamlessly. You can also set up payment plans and handle partial payments, just like FareHarbor, GoodShuffel, and Peek Pro.
Can I modify reservations after they're made?
Yes! You can easily modify reservations - change dates, extend rentals, add equipment, adjust pricing, and more. Our system tracks all changes and automatically updates inventory and pricing. It's designed to be flexible for the real-world changes that happen in rental businesses.
Do you support multiple locations?
Yes! SurfShare's multi-location support lets you manage multiple rental shops or delivery zones from one dashboard. Perfect for growing businesses expanding to new locations or managing multiple service areas.
What equipment types can I rent through SurfShare?
SurfShare works for any rental business - surfboards, kayaks, bikes, beach equipment, snow gear, camping equipment, and more. Our flexible platform adapts to your inventory, whether you rent one type of equipment or dozens.
How does the rental marketplace work?
When you list on SurfShare's marketplace, your business becomes discoverable to thousands of customers searching for rentals. You'll get bookings from travelers and locals you might never reach otherwise. You can still take direct bookings - the marketplace just brings you additional customers.
What kind of reporting and analytics do you provide?
SurfShare tracks revenue, popular items, peak booking times, customer behavior, and more. Get insights into what's working so you can make data-driven decisions. Export reports or view dashboards - all your data is at your fingertips.
What happens if I need help or have questions?
We offer 24/7 support via email and in-app chat. Our team is responsive and understands rental businesses. Plus, we have extensive documentation, video tutorials, and an active community of other rental shop owners sharing tips and best practices.
