Fill your downwinders when the wind lines up
A downwinder or a boat trip only runs when the wind and the riders come together. Wavind lists your trips on the spots where they start, with places, dates and the forecast for each one.

This is what your page looks like
An example school on Wavind: its services with prices, a booking card, and the times riders pick, with the wind and waves for each one.
Example business. The screens are shown in English.
Where riders find you
Riders open Wavind to check the wind and waves at a spot. Your page sits right there, next to the forecast.
On every spot you serve
A Schools & services section on each spot page lists you with your type, town, sports and a link to your page.
In the places directory
Riders browse schools and services by country, sport and type, and businesses that take bookings come first.
In the iPhone app
The same listing appears on the spot’s About tab, with directions, your contact buttons and a Book bar.
Everything to run bookings
Use as much or as little as you need. All of it is included.
Your own booking page
A page with just your business, services and Book button, without Wavind’s menu or other businesses on it.
Link, website button and QR code
Copy the link for your social profiles, paste a button into your website, or print a QR poster for the beach hut.
Fixed times or requests
Publish sessions with places, or let riders ask for a day and time. Confirm each one yourself or automatically.
The forecast on every booking
Each booking in the coming week shows the wind and waves for its time and spot, so you see a poor day coming.
Answer from your phone
A Business tab in the iPhone app with a notification for every request. Speak a reply and polish it before you send.
Your team and six languages
Invite staff by email. Riders use Wavind in English, Polish, German, Spanish, Portuguese or French.

Questions from businesses
What if the wind does not show up?
Move the trip to a better time or cancel it with a reason such as no wind. Every booked rider is told, by notification and email.
Can riders ask for a private trip?
Yes. Besides published trips, riders can send a request for their own date.
What does it cost?
Nothing for founding partners until 31 December 2027. Nothing turns paid automatically: any paid plan will be announced at least 30 days ahead and only applies if you subscribe.
Does Wavind take a commission or handle payments?
No. Wavind takes no commission and handles no payments. Riders pay you directly, the way they do today.
Do I need my own website or booking system?
No. Your Wavind page and booking page work on their own. If you already have a website, link it from your page or add the Wavind button to it.
My business is already on Wavind. How do I manage it?
Start with List your business: Wavind looks for your website, Instagram or name and shows the page it finds. Use Ask for access, and once we have checked it is yours we send you a link to manage it. Got an email from us? Its private link lets you claim the page straight away.
