Peek Pro Alternative
Peek Pro charges 6 to 8% per booking plus a separate 2.3% + $0.30 credit card processing fee, so your software cost climbs every time your prices or volume go up.
GoFish.Rocks charges a straightforward $1.50 per passenger and lets you keep your own processor, so you always know exactly what each booking costs before you open the calendar.
GoFish.Rocks vs Peek Pro
Peek Pro charges a booking fee of 6% to 8% depending on your contract, plus a separate credit card processing fee of 2.3% + $0.30 per transaction. GoFish.Rocks charges $1.50 per passenger with no percentage fee and no monthly subscription.
- Because Peek Pro’s booking fee is a percentage, a sold‑out weekend or a successful price increase automatically gives them a raise before you ever see the profit.
- Their tiered 6–8% range means the same trip can carry a different software cost year to year, making it hard to know if you’re underperforming or just paying a higher rate.
- Blending booking commission with card processing hides your true cost per reservation, so you can’t easily compare it to running your own merchant account plus a flat platform fee.
- With GoFish.Rocks, every 2,000 passengers cost the same in software, whether you’re running basic trips or high‑end packages, which makes it dead simple to model new routes, vessels, or add‑ons.
When your cost per booking swings between 6% and 8% plus card fees, your season budget is built on sand. A flat $1.50 per passenger means you can forecast margins, set goals, and plan staffing with confidence from January through December, instead of waiting to see what Peek Pro decides to skim off the top each month.
Real-World Example
2,000 passengers per year at $100 each.
Peek Pro
6% booking fee: $12,000/yr
CC processing 2.3% + $0.30 per booking: +$5,200/yr
GoFish.Rocks
$1.50 x 2,000 passengers: $3,000/yr
CC processing is paid separately to your processor
Note: Peek Pro booking fee range of 6% to 8% is based on publicly reported operator contracts. GoFish.Rocks platform fee is exact at $1.50/passenger. Credit card processing is paid separately to your own processor on both platforms.
See How We Compare
Peek Pro charges 6 to 8% per booking, plus a separate 2.3% + $0.30 credit card processing fee, so the more you grow, the more they skim off every reservation. GoFish.Rocks flips that model: you pay a simple $1.50 per passenger flat, keep your own payment processor at your negotiated rate, and always know exactly what each booking costs before you turn on another ad campaign or open up a new season. If you’re tired of fee calculators and surprise statements, this is the predictable pricing you can actually build a charter business around.

Ventura Dive
I recently switched to GoFish Solutions from PeekPro to handle all my trip reservations and could not be happier. The format is more efficient and there are much better tools to manage and communicate with clients, plus payouts happen much faster. Would recommend this product to anyone who owns a charter company
The Variable Fee Problem
Peek Pro does not publish its booking fee rate publicly. Operators report rates between 6% and 8% depending on their account, volume, and negotiation. You may not know your exact rate until you are already on the platform. GoFish.Rocks posts its pricing openly — $1.50 per passenger, no negotiation required, no surprises on your first invoice.
- Booking fee rate is negotiated privately, not listed on their website
- Operators on the same platform may pay different rates without knowing it
- Rate can change at renewal without a public pricing anchor
- GoFish.Rocks publishes its $1.50 flat rate openly — no negotiation needed
When your cost per booking is a moving target, budgeting for your season becomes guesswork. A flat rate means your costs are predictable from January through December.
Two fees, Not one
Unlike FareHarbor, which bundles credit card processing into its fee, Peek Pro charges its booking fee and credit card processing fee separately. At 6% booking fee plus 2.3% + $0.30 per ticket, the combined cost on a $100 ticket is $8.60 before you count anything else. GoFish.Rocks charges $1.50 and lets you keep your own processor at whatever rate you’ve already locked in.
- 6% booking fee and 2.3% + $0.30 CC fee are two separate line items
- On a $150 ticket: $9 booking fee + $3.75 CC fee = $12.75 per passenger
- GoFish.Rocks platform fee is $1.50 per passenger, CC processing is separate and yours to control
- With GoFish.Rocks you can shop for the best CC processing rate independently
Keeping your CC processor separate means you can negotiate a better rate as your volume grows, something you cannot do when it is bundled into a platform fee.
Built for Charters, Not Tours
Peek Pro is a general-purpose tour and activity platform. It handles escape rooms, cooking classes, and wine tours alongside fishing charters. The tools are broad by design, not deep for your specific needs.
- Manifest management built for passenger count, not generic attendee lists
- Weather cancellation workflows built in, not bolted on
- Rod fee and add-on management designed for charter pricing structures
- GoFish.Rocks was built exclusively for fishing and water charter operators
A platform built for your industry means fewer workarounds, faster setup, and support staff who already understand how your business runs.
Support That Understands Your Season
Peek Pro’s support team handles a wide range of operator types across many industries. When you call about a manifest issue or a weather cancellation policy, you may be speaking with someone who has never been on a charter boat. GoFish.Rocks was built by people who have.
- Support response times vary and are not guaranteed during peak season
- Generic support agents are not trained on charter-specific workflows
- GoFish.Rocks support is staffed by people who understand charter operations
- Phone support available during peak season when issues cannot wait
When a weather cancellation hits at 5 am, you need someone who understands what that means for your manifest, your refund policy, and your next-day bookings.
