FareHarbor doesn't charge you a fee, but it charges your divers: a 6-8% surcharge on every booking, added at checkout. For a centre with volume, that's thousands of euros a year out of your customers' pockets — or out of yours, if you decide to absorb it. DEKKO turns it around: a flat fee of €199/month, 0% commission for you and for your diver, and the whole system included.
FareHarbor markets itself as "free for the operator", and technically it is: €0/month. The cost is somewhere else — in every booking:
For a tiny operator with few bookings, "€0/month" sounds good. For an active centre, 6-8% of annual volume far exceeds any fixed fee — and your customers pay it.
One price: €199/month, all included, with no setup fee, first month free and no lock-in. 0% commission per booking, for the centre and for the diver. Your customer pays the exact price you set; you receive the full amount. No surcharges at checkout, no surprises as volume grows, no per-user fee.
