The booking system for NZ bike & e-bike hire

Half-day and full-day sessions, digital waivers signed before the ride, and QR check-in at pickup — for a flat monthly price with 0% booking fees. No fees for you, none for your riders.

Free forever up to 25 bookings a month. All prices in NZD. Built in New Zealand.

Still taking bookings by phone and paper?

Along New Zealand’s cycle trails, plenty of hire crews still juggle phone calls, texts and a paper diary. You can go bookable in an afternoon — free.

1

Add your bikes

Create an activity for each bike type — e-bikes, hardtails, tandems — with its own sessions, capacity and prices.

2

Connect Stripe & share your link

Payments go through your own Stripe account, straight to you — we never hold your money. Share your booking page or embed the widget on your site.

3

Riders book, pay & sign

Guests pick a session, pay online and sign your waiver before they turn up. You see it all on one calendar — no double-bookings, no phone tag.

Get started free

No credit card required.

Sessions and capacity, made for hire

Hire runs on time slots and fleet limits, not one-off tours. GoodKeen’s session model fits how a hire day actually works.

Half-day & full-day slots

Morning, afternoon and all-day sessions, each with its own price. Timeslot or all-day — set whatever pattern your trail runs on.

Capacity per bike type

Twelve e-bikes and eight hardtails? Cap each type’s sessions at what’s in the shed. When a session is full, it’s full — no overbooked Saturdays.

Group bookings

One person books four bikes in one go and pays once. A group is one reservation, not four — so the Free plan’s 25 bookings a month goes further than it sounds.

Waivers signed before the ride, check-in in seconds

No clipboard at the counter while the group’s itching to go. Waivers are part of the booking — one system, not two subscriptions.

Digital waivers, built in

  • Signed online at booking — before anyone arrives at pickup
  • Stored per participant, versioned, unchangeable once signed
  • Retrieve or export any waiver whenever you need it

QR check-in at pickup

  • Scan the booking’s QR code and see the whole group at a glance
  • Waivers are already signed and stored against each rider by the time the group arrives
  • Runs in the browser on any phone — nothing to install

Do the maths

Summer shouldn’t cost you a percentage

Most booking platforms take a cut of every hire. On a flat plan with 0% fees, your best January is all yours.

FareHarbor

6–8%

typical booking fee added to your guest’s checkout — rate not published, set per agreement

Rezdy

~3%

per online booking, on top of a monthly plan

GoodKeen

0%

flat NZ$0–79/mo, nothing per booking

Worked example: take NZ$10,000 of hire bookings in a peak month. A 6–8% guest fee is NZ$600–800 out of your riders’ pockets. On GoodKeen that’s NZ$0 in booking fees — you pay only your flat plan.

FareHarbor’s fee is typically 6–8% — the rate isn’t published and is set per agreement (per a captainbook.io analysis). Rezdy fee per rezdy.com/pricing, checked Jul 2026. Competitor fees are indicative; check each provider for current rates. Card processing (Stripe) is charged separately by your payment provider.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. Set each bike type up as its own activity — e-bikes, hardtails, gravel bikes, tandems — each with its own sessions, capacity and prices. If you have 12 e-bikes, cap the e-bike session at 12 and it can’t be overbooked. GoodKeen manages sessions and capacity rather than tracking individual bikes — which is all most hire operators need.
Every rider signs your waiver online as part of the booking, before they arrive at pickup. Signed waivers are stored against each participant, versioned and unchangeable once signed, and you can retrieve or export them whenever you need to.
Yes. One person can book the whole group in a single reservation — two e-bikes, two hardtails — and pay once. A group counts as one booking, not one per rider, so the Free plan’s 25 bookings a month goes further than it sounds.
The Free plan is free forever for up to 25 bookings a month, with every feature included — no credit card required. Paid plans are a flat NZ$39 or NZ$79 a month, with unlimited bookings. There are no booking fees on any plan — not for you, and not for your riders.
No. Every account includes a hosted booking page you can share as a link or QR code. If you already have a website, embed the booking widget and take bookings right on your own site — your website stays yours.
Yes. Gift cards sold through GoodKeen are valid for at least 3 years from purchase, in line with the NZ rules that apply from 16 March 2026. GoodKeen enforces the 3-year minimum automatically.
An afternoon is realistic. Add your bike types, set session times and capacity, connect your Stripe account and share your booking link. Import existing customers from a CSV whenever you’re ready.
