Fishing charters

Booking software
for fishing charters.

Half-day and full-day trips, deposits, party lists and weather holds — booked before you leave the dock.

A fishing charter sells a boat by the trip: half-day, full-day, shared or private, capped at how many rods you can run. TimeKey books each trip from a live calendar with the party, the deposit and the gear sorted before you cast off.

Set your trips and cap each at the boat’s capacity, sell shared seats or a private charter, and capture party size and any gear or bait extras at booking. Assign the captain, and the day’s trips — times, parties and payment — sit on one board.

Take a deposit to lock the date and the balance on the day, and hold the slot against a weather call you can reschedule in a tap. Reminders send the dock, departure time and what to bring, and no-shows are marked automatically, so a prime tide is never wasted.

Take a deposit to secure the trip and the balance on the day — a prime tide is never left open.

Party & gear captured

Party size, gear hire and bait come in with the booking, so the boat’s stocked before you cast off.

04

Weather holds

Reschedule a trip for weather in a tap, and the party is notified and offered a new date automatically.

05

Shared or private

Sell individual seats or a whole-boat private charter from the same calendar, priced your way.

Captain’s day on one board

Every trip — time, party and payment status — sits on one board the skipper can work from.

When the weather turns

A blown-out day,
moved in a tap.

  • Call it off in a tap — the party is notified and offered a new date, a credit or a refund.
  • The deposit carries over to the moved trip, so a blown-out day doesn’t cost you the booking.
  • Hold a tentative date without letting it block the calendar for a paying party.
  • Reminders send the dock, departure time and what to bring, so nobody misses the tide.

Before you leave the dock

The party and the gear,
sorted at booking.

  • Party size, rod hire, bait and licences come in with the booking — the boat is stocked before you cast off.
  • Each trip is capped at how many rods you can run, so a six-rod boat never takes a seventh angler.
  • Sell shared seats or a whole-boat private charter from the same calendar, priced your way.
  • Deposit at booking, balance on the day — and the skipper works from one board.
