Simplo

For axe-throwing venues

Axe-throwing venue booking software with waivers built in

A thrower reserves a lane and signs a legally-binding e-signature waiver in the same checkout, and the whole record stays in one place. Put your booking calendar, your separate waiver tool, and your marketing list into one system that takes zero cut of your bookings.

What slows a hatchet house down

The problems every axe-throwing operator knows

Clipboards stall every group

A party of eight shows up for a one-hour lane and burns fifteen minutes passing around a paper waiver and a pen that ran out of ink. By the time everyone's signed you've lost a quarter of the session, and you still have to type their info into your books by hand.

Three tools that don't talk

A booking calendar over here, Smartwaiver over there, an email list somewhere else. None of it connects, so a thrower can reserve a lane and never sign, or sign and never hear from you again. You're the integration, and it's eating your evenings.

Per-booking fees on thin margins

Lane rentals and walk-on rates are already competitive in your market. A marketplace that skims 10 to 30% of every reservation turns a busy Friday into someone else's payday. You want a tool that charges a flat fee and stays out of the money flow.

How Simplo helps axe-throwing venues

One system for lanes, waivers, payments, and marketing

Shaped around how a throwing range actually runs: coached intros, open walk-ons, recurring leagues, and the big walk-up group that all needs to sign before a hatchet leaves a hand.

πŸͺ“

Book a lane and sign together

The thrower picks a lane, a time slot, and party size, then signs your liability waiver before checkout finishes. No reservation reaches your floor unless every name on it has a signed waiver attached.

πŸ›‘οΈ

A waiver trail that holds up

Every signature is hashed, chained to the record before it, IP-stamped, and archived as a PDF. When your insurer audits or an incident report needs backup, you produce the exact version each thrower agreed to in seconds.

πŸ’³

Keep 100% of your lane fees

Connect Stripe, Square, or Shopify Payments and charges flow straight to your account. We never sit in the money. Flat monthly pricing, zero cut of bookings, no surprise per-reservation fee.

🎯

Leagues, coaching, and walk-ins

Run recurring league nights, coached intro sessions for first-timers, and open walk-on slots as separate events, each with its own duration, capacity, and price. Live availability keeps target walls from getting double-booked.

πŸ“£

Turn signers into regulars

Every thrower who opts in (explicit, TCPA-compliant, kept separate from the waiver) becomes a marketing contact you own and can export. Win back the bachelor party that came once, or fill a slow Tuesday league night.

Sell wherever throwers find you

Drop one JS snippet on your site, list on Shopify through the App Store, and sell on Square's Marketplace. They all run the same booking widget, the same waiver, and the same calendar.

Here's how it plays out. A group of coworkers finds your range online and books a 90-minute lane for ten. As each person gets added to the reservation, Simplo sends them the waiver to sign from their own phone. Minors get the guardian flow, and your custom fields capture the closed-toe-shoe confirmation or whatever else your insurer requires. By the time they walk in, every signature is logged and the lane is paid for through your own Stripe or Square account, so your coach starts the safety briefing instead of hunting for pens. After they leave, the throwers who opted in are sitting in a marketing list you own, ready for a league invite or a return-visit offer, with no per-message platform tax. That's the gap between stitching together a booking tool, a waiver tool like Smartwaiver, and a separate marketing app, and running one system that already knows who booked, who signed, and who you're allowed to contact.

FAQ

Axe-throwing booking & waiver software questions

Can customers book a lane and sign the waiver in one step?

Yes. The thrower picks a lane and time slot, then signs your legally-binding e-signature waiver in the same checkout. Everyone on the reservation can sign before they arrive, so no group gets stuck at the counter on a clipboard while their hour ticks down.

Is the digital waiver legally defensible if there's an injury?

Each signed waiver carries a tamper-evident audit trail. It's cryptographically hashed, chained to the record before it, IP-stamped, and archived as a PDF. If a thrower drops a hatchet on their foot and your insurer or a court asks for proof of consent, you can produce the exact wording that person agreed to and when they agreed to it.

What does Simplo take per booking?

Nothing. We charge one flat monthly price and take a 0% cut of your bookings. You bring your own processor, Stripe, Square, or Shopify Payments, so lane fees and walk-on charges land straight in your account with no marketplace skim.

Can I run leagues, coached sessions, and walk-ins from the same system?

Yes. Set up recurring league nights, coached intro sessions, and open walk-on slots as separate events, each with its own capacity, duration, and pricing. Lane availability is live, so you never double-book a target wall.

Dig deeper into the platform on the features page, check flat plans on pricing, and look up the lingo in the glossary or read why we built this on the about page. Run a different kind of venue? Simplo also powers climbing gyms, airsoft fields, and trampoline parks, with the same booking widget, the same audit-grade waivers, and the same no-booking-fee model.
