New · SurfBooking OS
All your school's apps, in one place.
The day, the sea and the month as widgets. Your tools in an app bar, each one in its own window, open side by side. Change the wallpaper with a right click, like on any computer.
SurfBooking OS
It is not a different product and there is nothing new to learn: inside each window is the panel you already use. One click to switch, one click back.
What is on the screen is what you get.

What Surf Booking is
The intelligent layer of surf — on top of every platform, not against them.
Surf Booking reads the real sea at each spot — wave, wind and tide — and turns it into decisions: the right lesson at the right hour, priced right, filled from every channel you already sell on. You keep your bookings on the platforms you already sell on; Surf Booking brings them into one panel and adds the intelligence none of them have.

Bookings from every channel land in one calendar, coloured by the tide. The ones paid through us go on to the school's account.
Bring lessons from connected channels into one calendar, coloured by the tide. Synchronisation depends on what each connection supports.

Three things to see first
It’s not the app. It’s this.
Before you scroll to the list, look at these three.
01Only hereIG · Story · WhatsApp · Flyer
Shareable posters everywhere
Every lesson auto-generates posters in 6 formats: Instagram Post, Story, Facebook, WhatsApp, X, printable A4. Customer scans the QR and pays. No app, no account. You sell everywhere, not just inside SurfBooking.
Live on the platform since day one. Most schools still don’t know.
02Walk-upNo app
Express QR on the beach
Tourist walks up, scans the QR on your sign, pays the lesson. No app install, no account. Equipment, level and time pre-filled. Built for the summer-street season.
No SurfBooking commission on walk-ups — only the bank's processing cost.
03Across schools
Progress Passport cross-school
Your students carry a progress passport with them. Take-offs, first wave, bottom-turns — all stamped by you. Works across schools. The surfer comes back instead of testing competitors.
✓ Take-off
✓ 1st wave
✓ Bottom turn

Builds an emotional bond. Loyalty beats any discount.

€0/month. 20% only on the bookings SurfBooking brings you; on your own channel SurfBooking takes 0% and you only pay the payment processor's fee.
How much does Surf Booking cost for schools?
Surf Booking is free for schools: 0€/month, no setup fee and no card required. The platform charges only a 20% commission on the bookings Surf Booking brings you — lessons you sell through your own channel pay 0% commission — only the card processing fee applies. The school agent and the forecast tools are included. The Channel Manager isn't paid for in money: it's paid for in lessons. As long as you keep lessons on sale in the Surf Booking marketplace, you pay nothing for it. One lesson every six months you work is enough.
How do I get paid?
Payments go directly to your school's account. Students pay at booking time; your share is transferred automatically — no invoicing Surf Booking, no waiting for monthly payouts.
New
Direct Bookings — your QR, your customers, no commission
A permanent QR code and link for your school — at the front desk, on Instagram, on your own website. You choose where each lesson goes: this channel only, the marketplace only, or both with the same places. The ones on this channel only don't show up in the SurfBooking app or site; and every booking that comes in through this channel pays no SurfBooking commission — only the card processing cost, and that is charged AT COST: we advance an estimate and return you the difference. On a €40 lesson you keep at least €38.90 instead of €32.
The marketplace doesn't change: customers we bring you keep paying the same 20%. You only pay commission when we're the ones bringing you the customer. And the two live together: the choice is lesson by lesson, not all or nothing. The ones you leave on sale in the marketplace are the ones that keep your Channel Manager at no cost. And it's the same booking widget you may already have on your site: you don't change a line.

What a school pays
The school is the real free surfer.
No contract. No minimums. No lock-in. Connect your payments account and start selling. The Channel Manager isn't paid for in money: it's paid for in lessons. As long as you keep lessons on sale in the Surf Booking marketplace, you pay nothing for it. One lesson every six months you work is enough. Sell on the marketplace only if you want to — a clear 20% commission on those sales. Sell elsewhere? Zero commission. It's your school, your pace.

SurfBooking OS €0/month. Channel Manager at no cost: just keep lessons on sale with us.
SurfBooking is one platform with three independent surfaces. A school never sees another school's customers. An instructor's CV travels across schools but their reviews stay separated. For surfers who book here, only the school teaching that lesson gets their contacts, never the school next door and never other surfers.
New in SurfBooking OS 2.0: hover over a dock icon and you get a peek at the window; the mosaic puts every window side by side. Drop or paste a customer's email or WhatsApp onto the desktop and Kai opens create lesson with what's in it. External lesson series check for clashes before they are created, and The Day opens on a 07:00 to 20:00 ruler with the sea hour by hour.
3 steps, from sign-up to your first lesson on sale.
Creating the account takes a few minutes. We review the school and, once it is approved, you create your first lesson in the panel and connect payments to put it on sale. We show you what is missing at each step.

Under the hood
Infrastructure & security
The boring part that matters. You'll never have to think about it — it's working while you sleep.

What we never share. What we never sell. The exact legal architecture.
Six explicit promises to every school, plus the operational and legal detail every controller has the right to see.
Enterprise-grade infrastructure on top of major providers.
Card payments
PCI-DSS Level 1 — we never touch card data. Card + MB Way in Portugal.
Edge Shield
Global edge network. Attacks stopped before they reach the site, HTTPS required (TLS 1.2+).
Always-encrypted connection
The whole site forced over HTTPS. HSTS on so the browser never accepts unencrypted connections.
Data stored in the EU, with daily backups
Hosting in EU data centres. Automated daily backups. Database encrypted at rest and in transit.
GDPR Compliant
Data on EU servers. Right to be forgotten, export, explicit consent. Digital liability waivers, with the signature recorded.

SurfBooking OS €0/month
Priority email support
Your feedback changes the product in days, not months
Each SurfBooking school has its own Agent. Not a standard chatbot — a brain you shape with your house rules, voice and quirks. We tune the rules; we never read your conversations.
SurfBooking OS is €0/month. Commission (20%) applies only to bookings SurfBooking brings you through the marketplace. Your own channel, walk-ups and external calendars: zero commission from us.
What about lessons I sell outside SurfBooking?
They're yours, full stop. Log them if you want (so the calendar and the numbers add up) — you pay nothing for them.
Is there a contract, minimums or lock-in?
No. No credit card, no contract, leave whenever you want. Your data leaves with you.
How many schools use the platform today?
Few — we're new and we won't pretend otherwise. Right now there are 22 founding schools registered, and the product changes with their feedback in days, not quarters. That's exactly why SurfBooking OS is free for the first ones.
Do my current clients become yours?
Never. A client who arrives through your channel is yours: no commission and no SurfBooking between you. We only charge when the demand was ours.
How long until I can sell lessons?
Creating the account takes a few minutes. We review the school and, once it is approved, you create your first lesson in the panel and connect payments to put it on sale. We show you what is missing at each step.
What's new in SurfBooking OS 2.0?
The desktop got quicker to use: the dock peeks at each window and the mosaic shows them all side by side; there is a widget gallery with previews; drop or paste a customer's message and Kai opens the lesson form already filled in; external lesson series are checked for clashes before they are created; The Day shows the sea hour by hour from 07:00 to 20:00; the Control Centre keeps today's notices; and in Appearance you pick the glass, the colour and the corners.
Channel Manager at no cost: just keep lessons on sale with us.
