WHAT RENTAL TRACKERS LACK
Fleet ops needs more than tracking
Inventory tracking is table stakes. Running a rental operation requires delivery logistics, damage documentation, walk-in POS, customer self-service, and marketing to fill empty fleet days that Wheelbase and Booqable simply don't offer.
Delivery Logistics: Not Just a Calendar
Wheelbase tracks delivery windows on a calendar. Calisto provides full delivery operations: GPS-dispatched drivers, route optimization for multi-stop runs, real-time tracking shared with customers via their portal, photo-verified pickup and dropoff, and automated SMS and WhatsApp notifications at every step. Your delivery fleet runs like a logistics company, not a sticky-note board.
Damage Tracking: Not a Text Field
Booqable has a notes field. Wheelbase has basic condition tracking. Calisto provides full damage inspection workflows: pre-rental and post-rental photo checklists, timestamped and location-tagged damage reports, security deposit claims with photo evidence attached, customer dispute resolution, and generated insurance claim files. Protect your fleet and your revenue with documentation that holds up.
Walk-In POS: Don't Lose the Walk-Up Customer
Neither Wheelbase nor Booqable has a POS system. When a walk-in customer wants to rent a kayak right now, you need a fast checkout experience. Calisto POS handles walk-in rentals, merchandise and accessory sales, deposit collection, waiver signing, and upsell prompts for helmets, insurance and guides from one screen. Online and in-person inventory stay in sync automatically.
Choose your processor. Not theirs.
Wheelbase has limited payment options. Booqable locks you into Stripe or Mollie. Calisto connects to 75 payment gateways across 11 global regions. Accept deposits, hold security deposits, process walk-in sales, and manage refunds with the processor you already trust.

Switching questions
Can I manage boats, bikes, kayaks, and vehicles in one system?
Yes. Calisto handles any type of rental fleet: watercraft, bikes, e-bikes, scooters, ATVs, golf carts, vehicles, camping gear, and more. Each asset has its own maintenance schedule, damage history, and availability calendar. Multi-location fleets are supported natively.
What about security deposits and damage claims?
Calisto manages security deposits end-to-end: hold at checkout, photo-verified inspections at return, damage claim generation with evidence, partial or full deposit refund, and insurance documentation. Your processor of choice handles the actual hold and release.
Does Calisto handle delivery and pickup?
Yes. Calisto includes GPS-dispatched delivery logistics with route optimization, driver tracking, customer notifications, and photo-verified handoffs. Customers see real-time delivery status in their Navigator portal. No third-party delivery software needed.
How does pricing work?
Setting up costs nothing and no card is required. You get full access to all 71 products with no feature restrictions. Core carries no additional cost. Commerce is a 1% revenue share. Every other suite is priced per app in the Marketplace.
Why do you charge a percentage of revenue?
Because it makes us partners, not a vendor. A flat subscription means your software company collects the same fee in your best month and your worst. A revenue share means we only grow when you grow. Slow month or off-season? Your bill scales down with you.
