Commission-free booking software for Kitesurfing operators who take bookings over WhatsApp, Instagram and Messenger. Turn every enquiry into a ready-to-confirm booking — one flat monthly price, 0% commission.
Kitesurf and windsurf schools book lessons and rentals around skill level and wind — and almost always over Instagram and WhatsApp. Retveno keeps that channel and adds the structure of a real booking system.

A whole messy chat becomes one clean booking.
Real bookings don't arrive in one tidy message — they're a back-and-forth, with changed dates and afterthoughts. Watch us untangle the whole thread into a single booking, exactly like we do on autopilot.

Your DMs become bookings — automatically
Connect your channels once and the messages customers send you on WhatsApp, Instagram and Messenger turn into ready-to-confirm bookings by themselves. No copy-paste, no typing, nothing for your guests to install — you just tap confirm. Only messages that mention a booking are ever read; never your private chats.
Commission-free
Unlike Rezdy or FareHarbor, we never take a cut of your bookings. One flat monthly price, every sale is yours.
WhatsApp reminders
Automatic SMS and WhatsApp reminders before each trip cut no-shows without you lifting a finger.
Your enquiries become bookings — automatically
Connect WhatsApp, Instagram or Messenger once and every booking conversation turns into a pending booking with the customer name, dates, group size and contact details already filled in. Review and tap confirm — no copy-paste, no marketplace, nothing new for your guests to learn. Not a channel we connect to yet? Paste a screenshot and Retveno reads it into a draft booking.
Capture the details Kitesurfing actually needs
Generic booking forms don't fit adventure activities. Lessons and rentals depend on skill level, weight and wind conditions, so capturing them at booking keeps your instructors and gear matched to each session — a kite size on one board, a sail size and board volume on the other. Retveno lets you define your own custom fields per tour — for example skill level, weight, kite or sail size, board volume, lesson vs rental — so every booking captures exactly what you need to run the trip safely.

What limits a departure
The rack, not the beach. Lessons and rentals compete for the same kites, boards and sails, across both disciplines.
Waivers
Sent with the booking and signed before arrival, so nobody is filling in paperwork at the meeting point. On the Pro plan.
On the day
A departure manifest you can open on your phone, carrying every custom field the booking captured — and exportable to CSV.
How Kitesurfing actually runs
Kite and windsurf schools are wind businesses: a good forecast fills a week and a flat spell empties it, and both happen with a couple of days' notice. Lessons and rentals also compete for the same gear, so the diary is really an equipment schedule with people attached to it. Most centres run both disciplines off one beach and one rack, which means the two share a single availability problem rather than having one each.
The two sports also want different wind. A day that is too light to get a kite student going is often a good windsurf day, and the strong afternoon that empties the windsurf rack is when the kite lessons run. A school teaching both is really smoothing one season across two weather profiles — which only works if a single calendar shows you what is booked on each, rather than two lists you reconcile in your head on the drive down.
What a half-filled booking costs you
Skill level and weight decide kite size — or sail size and board volume on a windsurf lesson — and the wrong rig is a lesson that does not happen. When a student books without either, the instructor finds out on the beach with the wrong gear already carried down. Captured at booking, it is a field; discovered on the day, it is an hour.

Frequently asked questions
We teach both kitesurfing and windsurfing, and lessons and rentals share the same gear — can I manage all of it?
Set each one up as its own tour with its own capacity, so a kite lesson, a windsurf lesson and a board rental each know how many students or boards they can take. The seat limit is what stops the same kit being promised to two people on the same afternoon, whichever discipline booked it first.
Do I have to change how I take bookings?
No. Keep taking bookings on WhatsApp, Instagram and Messenger exactly as you do today. Connect your channels once and booking messages turn into ready-to-confirm bookings automatically.
What does a kitesurfing booking need to capture?
Lessons and rentals depend on skill level, weight and wind conditions, so capturing them at booking keeps your instructors and gear matched to each session — a kite size on one board, a sail size and board volume on the other. In Retveno those are custom fields you define per tour — for this one, typically skill level, weight, kite or sail size, board volume, lesson vs rental. They arrive filled in on the booking, appear on the departure manifest, and export to CSV with everything else.
Is it really commission-free?
Yes. One flat monthly price — no commission and no per-booking fee. Every booking stays 100% yours.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. Start free with no credit card required, upgrade when you're ready, and cancel anytime — your data always stays yours.
