FareHarbor takes a cut of
every booking
FareHarbor charges 6% on every online booking. For a busy activity park, that adds up fast.
wakesys is free for 2026, and after that? Flat monthly pricing. No percentage fees. Ever.
6% of every booking.
FareHarbor's booking fee seems small until you do the math. On $100,000 in annual online bookings, that's $6,000 straight to FareHarbor.
$100K revenue → $6,000 to FareHarbor vs $0 with wakesys (2026)
What happens in 2027?
We switch to flat monthly pricing. No percentage fees. Here's our promise:
FareHarbor isn't built for activity parks
FareHarbor was designed for tour operators. Activity parks have different needs. wakesys was built by park operators for park operators.
Built by park operators, not tour software engineers
We run activity parks ourselves. Every feature exists because we needed it.
We live it
We operate activity parks. We know the Saturday afternoon rush, the birthday party chaos, the walk-in crowds.
We're growing with you
Our parks use wakesys daily. When we improve it for ourselves, you benefit too.
Honest pricing
No sales calls required. No custom quotes. Just fair, transparent pricing.
FareHarbor is great for kayak tours and whale watching. Activity parks need something different — real-time capacity, walk-in POS, pre-arrival waivers. That's wakesys.

Common questions
How much does FareHarbor really cost?
FareHarbor charges around 6% per online booking. They hide it by passing the fee to customers or building it into your pricing. Either way, it's money leaving your business.
Why is wakesys free for 2026?
We're growing. We want parks to try wakesys risk-free and see the difference. In 2027, we'll have flat monthly pricing that's still cheaper than FareHarbor's percentage fees.
Is wakesys as established as FareHarbor?
FareHarbor started in 2013, we started in 2013 too — specifically for activity parks. We're smaller, more focused, and built for venues with physical capacity limits and walk-in traffic.
Can I try wakesys before committing?
Since it's free for 2026, there's nothing to commit to. Book a demo, get set up, and use it for a full year risk-free.
