See every point
Stay with TrekkSoft if
  • You’re a pure tours, activities or attractions operator with no equipment rentals
  • Built-in payments (Payyo) and an OTA channel manager are central to how you sell
  • A 12-month contract and sales-led onboarding suit how you like to buy software
  • You’re happy with a mature, established European brand and don’t need built-in AI
  • Built-in payments matter. TrekkSoft bundles its own Payyo gateway, so taking online and in-person payments works out of the box without wiring up a separate processor.
  • OTA distribution is your growth lever. The built-in channel manager plus an agents-and-resellers network pushes your tours to marketplaces and travel-agent partners from one place.
  • You run pure tours, activities or tickets. If you never rent physical equipment and don’t need maintenance tracking, TrekkSoft’s tour-and-ticket workflow is purpose-built and mature.
  • An established European brand is reassuring. TrekkSoft is a long-running Swiss platform, now part of the wider TrekkSoft / Tourism Software Group, and holds 4.5/5 on Capterra with support that reviewers rate highly.
Switch to EquipDash if
  • You want a flat subscription without a per-booking fee stacked on top
  • You rent equipment and run tours, and want item tracking, bundles and maintenance logs built in
  • You want included digital waivers and native AI (Dash AI + Bots), not add-ons or absences
  • You’d rather try before you buy, 21-day self-serve trial, no 12-month contract, cancel anytime
  • You don’t want a booking fee on top. Flat $23/mo + 2%, with no separate per-booking percentage stacked on the subscription. As your volume grows, your effective rate doesn’t climb the way a 2-3% booking fee does.
  • Rentals are part of your business. Item-level tracking, availability, bundles and maintenance logs are native. TrekkSoft is built around tours, activities and tickets, not rental inventory.
  • AI that actually does something. Dash AI answers customers, drafts emails and generates reports. Dash Bots chase unsigned waivers. MCP lets Claude and ChatGPT act on your business. TrekkSoft has no native AI.
  • Try before you buy, no lock-in. 21-day self-serve trial, no demo required, no sales call, and monthly billing with no 12-month contract. Import your data, run a real week, decide.

TrekkSoft’s built-in payments and channel manager are genuine strengths, but the per-booking fee means your effective rate climbs with volume on top of the monthly plan. On EquipDash the cost stays a flat $23/mo + 2% with no separate booking fee and no annual lock-in. TrekkSoft localizes pricing by region, verify current rates and your tier’s fees before committing.

More on these platforms

Rezdy. Subscription plus up to a 3% booking fee, with a 100+ OTA channel manager as its standout. Published pricing and a free trial, so easier to test than TrekkSoft, but heavier on distribution and thinner on rentals.

Bokun. TripAdvisor-owned (Viator's sister product) since 2018, with a strong marketplace and lower commission (~2.9%) than many rivals. Similar OTA focus to TrekkSoft, more setup effort, and weak on equipment rentals.

Checkfront. Mature tours-and-rentals platform with 40+ integrations and capacity-based booking. Now one plan (~$99/mo + 3%), no native AI, and thinner serial/maintenance tracking than a rental-native tool.
