The booking system built for bike and equipment hire.
Bikes, boards, kayaks and e-bikes for an hour, a half day or a full day, with every item tracked so you never promise what’s already out.
The bit that wears you down.
You can’t see what’s actually on the rack until someone checks.
Walk-ins and online bookings clash over the same bike.
Deposits are taken in three different places.
Built for how hire businesses work.
One system for bookings, kit, staff, customers and payments, set up around the way you run your day.
Every item tracked
Bikes, boards and boats counted as a fleet or by name, so you only sell what’s free.
Hire periods that suit you
Hourly, half-day and full-day options, each with its own price.
Walk-ins and online in one list
Take a booking at the counter in the same system your website uses.
Deposits and balances
Take a deposit online and the balance later, all in one place.
Extras with the hire
Helmets, child seats or wetsuits added to the booking and paid for together.
Waivers before they ride
Every rider signs online before they arrive.
“The whole thing is significantly more comprehensive and joined up than I anticipated. It sounds like you guys are actually listening to what centres need.”
“This is far more tailored. My current system is a one-size-fits-all and takes in a huge variance of types of activity. Yours is far more tailored, which is exactly what we need.”
“You guys have been busy. You guys have got a lot of stuff that our current system doesn’t do.”
“You can tell you guys are obviously in the outdoor business because it is very comprehensive.”

We’re experts at turning visitors into bookings.
We run the adventuro marketplace, so we see every day what makes people book an adventure and what makes them leave. Slipstream puts that know-how to work for your centre, and our team is there to help you grow, not just hand you a login.
Booking that converts
Customers pick a date, choose their options and pay on your own site, without a detour to someone else’s.
10pm on a Tuesday, a family books Saturday’s surf lesson for four from the sofa.
An AI agent that sells
It answers the questions that usually lose a booking, then books them in, even while you’re out on the water.
“Do I need to be able to swim?” answered from your own activity details, then booked.
Websites built to sell
Fast, mobile-first sites with your activities front and centre and booking on every page.
Every activity page shows the next dates with spaces and a Book now button.
More places to be found
Your activities on the adventuro marketplace, in front of people already searching for them.
Someone looking for coasteering in Cornwall finds your sessions and books on adventuro.
Switching is the easy part.
We move you over
Your products, pricing and customers come across from your current system. You don’t start from scratch.
Run both side by side
Keep your old system going while Slipstream beds in, and switch when you’re happy.
No long-term contract
No lock-in. You stay because it works for your centre, not because you have to.
The things centres ask us first.
Anything else, just ask on a demo.
Can we track each bike individually?+
Yes. Items can be tracked by name or as a fleet, and a hire only sells when the item is free.
Can we sell half-day and full-day hire?+
Yes. Each hire period is its own option with its own price.
Can we take walk-in bookings?+
Yes. Bookings taken at the counter go into the same list as online ones, so nothing clashes.
Can we take deposits?+
Yes. Take a deposit online and the balance later, or the full amount up front.
What does Slipstream cost?+
One monthly subscription plus a small share of the bookings you take through it, in place of the separate tools you pay for today. We’ll talk you through what it would look like for your centre on a demo.
Can you move us over from our current booking system?+
Yes. We move your products, pricing and customers into Slipstream for you, and you can keep your current system running alongside until you’re ready to switch.
Am I tied into a long contract?+
No. There’s no long-term contract.
