    PayCamp is campsite booking software for UK sites where you confirm each booking yourself: a pitch calendar that stops double bookings, an enquiry inbox, invoices with VAT and a Pay Now link, and electric hook-up billed by the kWh. It suits touring sites, seasonal pitches and CL or CS sites moving off a paper diary or a spreadsheet.

    Online guest booking: where PayCamp is today

    Guests cannot yet book and pay for a pitch on their own. They send a booking enquiry, by phone, by email or from your website, it lands in your PayCamp enquiry inbox, and you confirm the booking. Online self-booking for pitches is on our roadmap, and we will not put a date on it until it is ready.

    That suits sites that like to speak to guests first: seasonal pitches, CLs, and sites that vet bookings. If you need guests to book by themselves around the clock today, CampManager and Anytime Booking both do that, and our comparisons say so plainly: PayCamp vs CampManager and PayCamp vs Anytime Booking.

    How a booking works in PayCamp

    1. A guest enquires, and the enquiry is logged in your inbox so it does not get lost.
    2. You check the pitch booking calendar and create the booking. Seasonal rates apply automatically.
    3. PayCamp raises the invoice with VAT and a Pay Now link, and the guest pays by card.
    4. The payment is recorded against the booking, ready for arrival.

    Electric hook-up billed by the kWh

    Record the meter reading when a guest arrives and when they leave, and PayCamp works out the units, applies your rate and VAT, and adds the charge to the invoice. It is the same electricity billing system used for statics and berths, and it is running live at UK sites today. More on campsite electricity meter billing.

    What campsite booking software costs with PayCamp

    From £49 a month for up to 25 pitches, with every feature on every plan and a 14-day free trial with no card. Card payments through PayCamp Payments cost 2.9% + 30p each, or connect your own Stripe account and pay Stripe's rate with no PayCamp fee. See PayCamp pricing. For a quiet five-pitch CL a free tool may be enough; our guide to choosing campsite software says when.

    Campsites that also run moorings or boats

    This is where campsite-only systems stop. PayCamp keeps pitches, moorings, plots and hire boats in one account and one customer record: Huntingdon Boathaven runs its moorings, pitches and plots this way. See PayCamp for marinas and PayCamp Hire for boat hire. Moving off a spreadsheet first? Read replacing the campsite spreadsheet.

    FAQ

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Common questions about site management software and how PayCamp can help your operation.

    Not yet. Guests send a booking enquiry by phone, email or from your website, it lands in your PayCamp enquiry inbox, and you confirm the booking. Online self-booking for pitches is on our roadmap. If guests must book by themselves 24/7 today, a system such as CampManager or Anytime Booking does that.

    No. PayCamp does not connect to third-party booking sites such as Pitchup or Airbnb. If most of your bookings come through those sites, a system with a channel manager will suit you better.

    Campsite management software is a digital platform that helps touring parks and holiday sites manage their daily operations. It replaces paper diaries, spreadsheets, and manual processes with an all-in-one system for pitch bookings, guest records, electricity billing, invoicing, and payments. Modern campsite software like PayCamp is cloud-based, meaning you can access it from any device — perfect for checking availability while out on site.

    PayCamp tracks electricity usage per pitch using meter readings. When a guest arrives, you record the starting meter reading. When they leave, you enter the final reading. The system automatically calculates usage in kWh, applies your rate (including UK VAT at the correct percentage), and adds the charge to their invoice. No more manual calculations or arguments about who used what.

    Yes, PayCamp handles both seasonal (annual) pitches and short-stay touring bookings in the same system. You can set different pricing structures — annual fees for seasonals with monthly payment plans, and nightly rates for tourers with peak/off-peak variations. Each pitch type appears on your visual calendar so you always know what's available.

    Absolutely. PayCamp is designed for sites of all sizes, from 5-pitch Certificated Locations to 200+ pitch holiday parks. It is built for sites moving off a paper diary or a spreadsheet. The price is set by how many pitches, berths or plots you have: from £49/month for up to 25 units, with every feature on every plan. For a very small CL, a free tool may be enough, and we would rather tell you that than sell you something you do not need.

    Yes. PayCamp is built with UK GDPR compliance in mind. All data is encrypted, stored securely in the cloud, and automatically backed up. You control who has access, with staff permission levels so seasonal helpers can check availability without seeing financial data. We also help you meet data retention requirements with automatic guest data cleanup options.

    Yes, PayCamp works on any device with a web browser — smartphones, tablets, laptops, and desktops. There's no app to download; just log in from Safari, Chrome, or any browser. This means you can check bookings from the tractor, take payments at the gate, or update meter readings while walking the site.

    Yes! PayCamp Payments lets you accept card payments from guests online — with a guided setup in minutes. A 2.9% + 30p processing fee applies per transaction. Alternatively, you can connect your own Stripe account and pay Stripe directly with no PayCamp fee.
