About

Bookinglayer is a booking and management platform built specifically for retreat centers, surf camps, outdoor operators, and wellness or boutique properties sell accommodation and activities together. No hotel PMS was built to sell nights in a room, with no way to schedule a lesson, cap a group size, or bundle a treatment into a stay. Operators end up running a second tool or spreadsheet for activities and reconciling everything by hand. with Bookinglayer, every booking is structured around the Package, combining accommodation, activities, meals, and services into one offering, whether that's a fixed date retreat, a flexible stay, or a surf week with fixed inclusions. Four core features cover the full booking lifecycle. The Booking Engine runs on the operator's own domain and branding, letting guests book accommodation and activities in a few clicks, which keeps drop-outs low and builds trust at checkout. The Backoffice is where staff manage inventory, bookings, and reporting from one place, with information like a dietary requirement reaching every relevant team member automatically. The Customer Portal lets guests confirm details, pay balances, sign waivers, and adjust activities themselves, removing the manual follow-up that used to consume staff time between booking and arrival. Payments runs deposit and balance schedules automatically across more than 35 gateways, so payment tracking stops depending on manually checking a bank statement against a spreadsheet. Every booking made through the Booking Engine is direct, with no marketplace commission, unlike the 15 to 20% typically charged by third-party channels, and guest data stays with the operator. Support is included 24 hours a day with every account, and pricing follows the same logic: every account gets the same core platform, then operators add only what they need: more users, extra locations, advanced features, or API access. The numbers reflect the mechanism. Clients save at least five hours of admin work per week and increase average booking value by 30% through structured upselling. More than 1,500 properties across 85+ countries and 40+ niches run on Bookinglayer, with over 1.5 billion dollars in bookings processed and 95% client retention across more than a decade in business.

About

Regpack is an online registration and payment platform built for programs, not subscriptions. It centralizes enrollment, data collection, and payments in a single system, so you can manage participants, streamline operations, and eliminate manual processes. Used by camps, courses, afterschool programs, and multi-program organizations, Regpack connects registration forms, payment workflows, and reporting in a way subscription billing tools can't. Instead of forcing your process into recurring billing logic, Regpack is designed to reflect how programs actually operate, from first sign-up through final payment. With features like customizable registration flows, flexible payment plans, automated invoicing and reminders, and real-time reporting, Regpack gives you full visibility into your enrollment and revenue. Whether you are running a single program or managing multiple sessions and locations, everything stays connected in one place.

Pros from Real Users

Pros

  • Tamara is really helpful. Clear explanations. Fast responses. Very professional and patient throughout the whole process
  • Mike from Support. The system can almost do anything, once you get the hang of it you can achieve your end goal.
  • We have a climbing Camp in Lao. We were looking for a booking system that besides accommodation also included climbing courses and the TAB payment systems. So far we only know about bookinglayer that could do that. Our whole booking process is now automated. A booking engine is included and has a nice design
  • Fast communication helped us move quickly in resolving the issue. Everyone is friendly and open. The program is well designed for our basic operations—more than sufficient for our needs.
  • All-in-one system for lodging, meals, rentals, and activities Centralized calendar Flexible for complex bookings Superior onboarding process Excellent customer support
  • Pro-active and flexible in when we use the hours. Tamara responded quickly and was easy to work with.
  • The platform interface is straightforward and easy to navigate for daily operations. The early setup process is confusing, not enough support by that time, but it gets better now that the support team responds quickly and is generally helpful when contacted.
  • The entire onboarding process was beyond amazing. I worked with Tamara, who held our hand all the way through. I also love the customization that can be done, which there is much more to learn about. The main reason I switched away from Retreat Guru was that Booking Layer offers a customer portal space, this area where the client can land as a one-stop-shop is everythgin for us as the automated email model is hard to track.
  • We found Bookinglayer to be very helpful and patient with us as we customised our booking engine and after a few weeks we are now live. So far so good. Tamara was a great help with the onboarding, and very knowledgeable. We hope this is the start of a great partnership.
  • It is a professional looking program, that integrates well with the payment provider and offers great guest management with the customer portal. It has automated client messaging which is really helpful. They are always looking ahead to make it better and they do a 6 month check in to see how you are doing.

Pros from Real Users

Pros

  • Regpack is very intuitive and easy to figure out. I especially utilize the forms, triggers, and tokens features.
  • There are a lot of different features that this program offers specific to summer programming (forms, payment processing, rosters, etc.).
  • The software is easy to use, and projects can be replicated from year to year. Makes the setup process a lot more simple.
  • My favorite parts of Regpack are the triggered email features and the ability to sort and create reports on any of the information imputed. I also very much enjoy the payment portal and the customizable forms. Before coming to Regpack we only had fillable form to email from our website, so having the data populate to printable forms or to exportable spreadsheets was a game changer. It's also immensely helpful to have so many customizable report options, as you can run a report on any group for any fields.
  • I like the features that they have continued to add over the years. It has come a long way since we started using this in 2017. Customer support is always timely with issues and responses. They also are really good at checking in to make sure that you like using it and if we have any issues.
  • Regpack works really well for us because we have a rather complicated registration process that requires collecting a lot of info and keeping it all together in one spot. We also have two steps to the process and Regpack allows us to let them log in and complete forms and then we can release the rest of the forms in their same account at a later date.
  • Amazing customer service, gives us all the basics we need, good value for the price bracket that it's in.
  • We use Regpack in an education setting to have a Parent register, multiple children, without leaving the form, and just paying once. Automatic billing and payment plans have helped us along with the ability to make changes once published.
  • Staff is amazing, very easy to manage and very intuitive, has almost all of the features I wish to have!
  • They set this up for me, I'm able to edit it anytime, lots of report options, my customers had a smooth registration process, and my instructors could check the number of spots remaining on the website which was helpful.

Bookinglayer manages camps where accommodation and scheduled activities are sold and run together, common among surf, sports, summer camps, retreat centers, and adventure operators. A single Package combines lodging, activities, meals, and services, with capacity, group size, and schedules enforced automatically. Guests submit dietary needs, waivers, and emergency contacts themselves through the Customer Portal ahead of arrival, removing manual follow up. Staff manage bookings, rosters, and payments from one Backoffice, with reporting on occupancy and revenue built in. Support is available 24 hours a day. Bookinglayer supports more than 1,500 properties and businesses across 85+ countries and 40+ niches, with clients saving at least five hours of admin work per week managing camp operations that were previously split across disconnected tools.

Bookinglayer is built for hospitality properties that sell more than a room: boutique hotels with spa or activity programs, wellness resorts, and lodges combining lodging with experiences. Standard property management systems handle rooms and rates but have no way to schedule activities or bundle them into a stay. Bookinglayer combines both into one Package, managed through a single Backoffice covering bookings, occupancy reporting, and staff permissions. Guests complete online check in, sign waivers, and pay balances through a self service Customer Portal. Payments run automatically across 35+ gateways with no marketplace commission on direct bookings. More than 1,500 properties across 85+ countries use Bookinglayer, with clients saving five or more hours of admin work weekly and 95% retention.

Bookinglayer is a reservation platform built for businesses selling accommodation and activities together, not just rooms. Guests book a full Package, lodging, activities, meals, and services, in one transaction through a Booking Engine that runs on the operator's own domain and branding, keeping drop outs low and building trust at checkout. Deposit and balance schedules, reminders, and payments run automatically across more than 35 gateways, and every booking is direct, with no marketplace commission. Clients report saving at least five hours of admin work per week and increasing average booking value by 30% through structured upselling built into the reservation flow. More than 1,500 businesses across 85+ countries run their reservations on Bookinglayer, with over 1.5 billion dollars processed and 95% client retention.

Bookinglayer is built specifically for retreat centers running yoga, wellness, and multi day transformational programs. A Package combines accommodation, activities, meals, and services into one fixed date or flexible offering, with group size and room occupancy enforced automatically. Guests submit dietary requirements, health information, and emergency contacts, and sign waivers, through a self service Customer Portal, removing manual pre arrival follow up. Deposit and balance payments run on automatic schedules across 35+ gateways. Every booking is direct and commission free, keeping guest data with the operator. Retreat operators report saving at least five hours of admin work per week and increasing average booking value by 30%, with 95% client retention across more than a decade in business.

Bookinglayer lets tour operators sell accommodation, activities, transfers, and services as one bundled Package rather than coordinating separate bookings for each. Guests select dates, see included and optional activities, and complete a full itinerary booking in one flow, on the operator's own branded domain. Availability and capacity across lodging and activities are enforced together, removing manual double checking. The Customer Portal handles guest facing follow up, waivers, dietary needs, and payment reminders, without staff chasing details by email. Payments support 35+ gateways and multiple currencies, with every booking commission free. Operators report saving at least five hours of admin work per week, with more than 1,500 businesses across 85+ countries and 40+ niches running on the platform.
