Make Surf Board Rental Easier for Tourists and More Profitable for Operators
Most travelers don't bring a surfboard on vacation because of its size and transportation cost. At the same time, many beach rental shops have inconsistent pricing or require customers to wait for staff. A self-service rental system with transparent pricing and automatic rental time tracking gives visitors more confidence while creating a reliable source of income for operators.

Step 3 – Unlock the Locker
The assigned locker opens automatically for equipment collection.
Step 4 – Enjoy the Ride
The system automatically records the rental start time.
Step 5 – Return the Surfboard
After returning the surfboard, the system calculates the rental duration and charges the final rental fee automatically.
