Effortless Site Setup with PayCamp
Get your outdoor hospitality business online and taking bookings in just a few hours!
The Setup Fear
The number one reason site operators stick with spreadsheets and paper diaries isn't that they love them — it's fear of the switch. "How long will it take?" "Will I need an IT person?" "What if I lose my data?" These are real concerns, and most software companies don't address them well.

How the PayCamp Setup Wizard Works
PayCamp's guided setup wizard walks you through every step of getting your site live. Here's what it looks like:
Tell Us About Your Site
Choose your site type — marina, campsite, caravan park, or a combination. The wizard automatically configures the right terminology, features, and layouts for your site type.
Add Your Pitches, Berths, or Plots
Add your units one by one or in bulk. Set names, types, capacities, and facilities for each. The visual layout builds as you go, so you can see your site taking shape.
Set Your Rates
Configure your pricing — seasonal rates for campsites, annual fees for caravan parks, berth rates for marinas. The system handles different rate types, VAT calculations, and electricity pricing automatically.
Import Your Customers
If you have existing customer data in a spreadsheet, you can import it directly. Names, contact details, and plot/berth assignments all come across. No retyping everything from scratch.
You're Live
That's it. Your site is set up, your rates are configured, and you can start taking bookings and sending invoices immediately. Most operators complete setup in 2–4 hours.
Turn On Payments
Choose PayCamp Payments (5% + 50p, no merchant account needed) or connect your own Stripe account. Either way, you're collecting payments within minutes — not weeks of bank applications.
🏗️ Real Example: Milton Keynes Marina
MK Marina — a Lighthouse Partner — ran the setup wizard, imported their moorers, connected payments, and went live in a single day. They'd been on a 20-year-old system that required months of developer emails just to update pricing. With PayCamp, they now update rates in 30 seconds.
No IT Team Required
Did You Know?
Because PayCamp is cloud-based, there's nothing to install on any computer. No server setup, no database configuration, no IT consultant visits. If you can use a web browser, you can set up PayCamp.
PayCamp runs entirely in your web browser. There's no software to download, no servers to configure, and no IT consultant needed. If you can send an email, you can set up PayCamp.

Compare That to Traditional Software
Pro Tip: Avoid Setup Headaches
Traditional software often burdens you with significant setup costs and time. PayCamp streamlines this, saving you thousands and weeks of effort.
Traditional desktop site management software typically requires:
- ⚙️ Server installation and configuration
- 💸 IT consultant visit (£500–£2,000)
- 🎓 Staff training sessions (1–3 days)
- 🚚 Data migration by the vendor (weeks)
- ⏳ Total setup time: 2–6 weeks
With PayCamp: sign up, run the wizard, go live. Hours, not weeks.
