Ski & snowboard lessons booking software

Commission-free booking software for Ski & snowboard lessons operators who take bookings over WhatsApp, Instagram and Messenger. Turn every enquiry into a ready-to-confirm booking — one flat monthly price, 0% commission.

Ski and snowboard schools book lessons in a rush at the start of each week, mostly over WhatsApp, and every booking carries a rental order behind it. Retveno turns those messages into lessons with the sizing already captured.

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.

Keep your channels — lose the admin

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 Ski & snowboard lessons actually needs

Generic booking forms don't fit adventure activities. A lesson booking is really two bookings: the instructor slot and the kit, so level, boot size and height decide both the group and the rental order. Retveno lets you define your own custom fields per tour — for example level, ski or board, boot size, height and weight, lift pass — so every booking captures exactly what you need to run the trip safely.

What limits a departure

Instructor slots, each with a rental order behind it — the kit is as finite as the teaching hour.

A Ski & snowboard lessons departure6 of 12 seats taken
6 seats left.
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 Ski & snowboard lessons actually runs

Ski schools live inside a short season and a very peaked week: Sunday and Monday carry the new arrivals, and the whole resort books lessons in the same forty-eight hours.

Every lesson also drags a rental order behind it, so a booking that lacks sizing is two jobs left undone rather than one.

Every departure on one calendar

When the forecast moves, you move the departure — not forty chat threads. Seats, deposits and the guide assigned, in one view.

The Retveno calendar on a tablet: a fortnight of departures, each showing seats sold, the money still sellable, deposits due and the guide assigned.

What a half-filled booking costs you

Boot size, height and weight decide the kit, and level decides the group — get either wrong and a child spends the first morning in the wrong class with the wrong skis.

In a business where the whole week is booked in two days, that is not a correction you have time to make.

What one more guest actually earns you

One more guest can cost more than they pay — another vehicle, another guide, another van run. Retveno works it out per departure before you accept the booking.

One day, two ways

The same hours, the same weather, the same customers — once with the admin you do now, and once with it already done.

  1. 08:00Sunday: forty new arrivals book lessons at once.

    You copy each one from WhatsApp into a spreadsheet.

    Each arrives as a pending booking with the level filled in.

  2. 10:00A child is booked into the wrong level group.

    You find out on the slope with the class waiting.

    Level was captured at booking, so the group was right.

  3. 13:30The rental shop needs tomorrow's boots and skis.

    You rebuild sizes from forty separate chats.

    Boot size, height and weight are on every booking.

  4. 17:00Two instructors want to swap slots.

    You rewrite the timetable and re-message both families.

    You move the lessons; both families get the new time.

  5. End of the day

    21:45 Still sending boot sizes to the rental shop.

    17:30 The week is booked. You catch the last lift up for yourself.

Frequently asked questions

Can I take the rental sizing at the same time as the lesson booking?

Yes. Custom fields let each lesson ask for boot size, height, weight and whether it is skis or a board, so the booking and the kit order come from the same form rather than a follow-up call.

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 ski & snowboard lessons booking need to capture?

A lesson booking is really two bookings: the instructor slot and the kit, so level, boot size and height decide both the group and the rental order. In Retveno those are custom fields you define per tour — for this one, typically level, ski or board, boot size, height and weight, lift pass. 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.
