Kayak rental schedule overview dashboard

“We rent out kayaks and paddleboards by the hour, and keeping track of what’s available used to be a constant guessing game. With Reservation Genie our whole fleet is tracked in real time — guests book the gear they want online, and we never double-book a board again.”

Rental Summary Dashboard

Start every day knowing exactly where your fleet stands. The rental summary grid shows each kayak and paddleboard as a card — at a glance you see the booking window, how many reservations you have, and how many boards are still available. Click any card to filter the table to just that item, or hit the quick-add button to drop a new booking right in.

Per-Rental Cards

Each kayak, tandem, or paddleboard gets its own card showing its name, active launch window, reservation count, and units available.

Click-to-Filter

Tap any rental card to instantly filter the reservation table to just that item — no dropdowns, no extra steps.

Quick-Add per Rental

Each card has an "Add Reservation" shortcut that pre-selects the rental for you.

Turn Walk-Ups & Phone Calls into Paid Kayak Bookings

Skip the card reader and the paper form. Add the rental reservation, hit "Send Invoice", and a payment link goes straight to the renter's phone via email and text. They tap and pay in seconds — card already saved on their phone.

Once they complete payment, their confirmation and launch-point directions arrive automatically. You just watch the ticket icon flip from yellow to green.
