Booking Software for Burials at Sea
Stop Paying a Percentage on Memorial Services
Burial-at-sea services deserve software that handles every reservation respectfully and affordably, not one that skims a percentage off each family’s payment. Whether a group books a private 10-person ash scattering or a 40-guest celebration of life, the platform does the same job — and with GoFish.Rocks it stays a simple $1.50 per passenger.
- Every memorial booking — private charter, shared service, celebration of life — is billed at $1.50 per person who steps aboard
- No monthly subscription, no setup fee, no percentage of the service price families pay to honor their loved ones
- Holiday weekends, peak memorial season, high-demand summer dates — the rate stays $1.50 per passenger, always
- Families expect transparent pricing during a difficult time — $1.50 as a booking fee raises no questions at checkout
- Absorb the fee, pass it through, or build it into your service price — every option is detailed on the Pricing page
Your Revenue Goes Directly to You
- Link your existing merchant account — burial at sea payments flow straight to your bank, never through a middleman
- Next-business-day funding — run a Saturday morning memorial service and see the deposit by Monday
- Month-end billing based only on services that actually sailed — weather postponements and cancellations cost you $0
- Postpone a 20-guest memorial for weather: GoFish.Rocks charges nothing. A percentage platform still processes refund fees on every single ticket.
A Booking Experience Worthy of the Occasion
- The full booking process stays on your site — families never leave your domain or see a generic checkout screen
- Configure private charters, shared memorial dates, ash scattering services, and celebration-of-life packages in one calendar
- Capacity limits lock automatically when a service reaches the vessel's headcount — no risk of overbooking a memorial
Sensitive, Automated Communication for Every Service
A weather postponement on a memorial service affects families who may have traveled hundreds of miles and coordinated time off work. A single press by the captain dispatches a rescheduling alert to each name on the guest list, dignified, prompt, and fully documented with built-in guest messaging.
- Every family member who books receives an instant text message and email receipt with service details and departure instructions
- 'Service is Confirmed' — send a pre-departure update to every guest the day before, giving families peace of mind
- Every notification is IP-recorded with date-and-time stamps — a full paper trail on every communication sent to every passenger
Built for Memorial Service Operators
Burials at sea require precision, sensitivity, and compliance. GoFish.Rocks handles the scheduling, manifests, and communication so your team can devote full attention to delivering a meaningful experience for grieving families.
Private & shared services
Offer exclusive family charters alongside shared memorial dates where multiple families join a single voyage — both managed from one booking calendar
Waitlist for sold-out dates
When a memorial service date fills to capacity, families are placed on the standby list in a single step. A cancellation fires off an immediate text notification — first to confirm claims the open spot.
USCG-compliant manifest
Created automatically for each memorial departure, displaying a real-time boarding tally as families arrive — ready for coast guard inspection before departure
EPA compliance tracking
Log GPS coordinates, distance from shore, and service details for each burial at sea. Maintain records that satisfy EPA burial-at-sea reporting requirements.
