Distribution
Manage your Day Charter inventory once. Distribute it everywhere.
Andronautic centralizes content, prices, availability and booking rules, then connects that inventory to direct sales and external distribution channels.
- One inventory, multiple channels
- GDS and direct integrations such as NauSYS, Click&Boat and SamBoat
- Maintain product once instead of updating multiple agency systems
Dockside sales
Sell anywhere — even from the dock
A salesperson with a simple mobile app can create a booking in front of a customer at the marina, record payment by cash or card terminal, or send a confirmation/payment email on the spot.
- Create bookings while standing with the customer
- Cash or card terminal payment at the point of sale
- No need to return to the office to close a sale
Handover
Prepare the handover before the customer arrives
After booking, the customer completes mandatory information in the Customer Area, then a configurable PreCheckin lets them watch boat-use videos, validate onboard equipment and complete required checks before arriving at the dock.
- Customer Area for details, crew list and skipper licence
- PreCheckin moves training and checks before arrival
- Staff App continues exactly where the customer left off
Check-out
What happens at the dock is automatically reflected in the back office
At check-out, staff validate the return, record incidents, add charges and decide whether to deduct them from the deposit or collect them via cash/card terminal — all registered administratively in Andronautic.
- Digital check-in/check-out and contract signature
- Incidents and additional charges linked to the deposit
- Every action reflected in finance without re-entry
