You decide. The check-in captures certification, fitness to dive, insurance and emergency contact - and presents every certified guest with the usual risk and liability disclosures to sign, tailored to your center. Your own house rules or center-specific notes are added in a few clicks. So nobody checks in without everything necessary being filled in and validly signed.

Yes. Forms from your dive organisation - for a new course, a specialty or a try-dive, say - plug straight into the check-in: either quickly photographed or as a PDF you upload once and then present automatically to every matching guest to sign. The only requirement is that you hold the agency's usage rights for these documents. Every signature is secured with the same audit log as the rest of the check-in.

We've researched and published the legal situation for the most important dive destinations. Every signature is additionally secured with an audit log (hash, server time, device); for particularly cautious dive centers there's the “paper original” option. More on Security & law ›

Little. You create the account in a few minutes and click through the quick setup assistant - then your QR code is ready. No training needed: every function sits where you'd expect it and guides you through its steps. No installation, no payment details, no manuals.

Yes. Your first 20 guest check-ins are on us - no payment details, no contract, no cancellation. You create the account in minutes and try out the whole process with real guests.

Diver ID is free for divers. As a center you top up your guest quota and pay from $0.42 per guest check-in, depending on package size - that keeps the servers, encrypted cloud storage, support and constant updates running. No subscription, no base fee, no hidden costs.

No. Diver ID adds to your workflow instead of overturning it - you decide whether to go fully paperless or digitise just individual steps. No migration, no cut-off date, no risk.

Yes. Every diver record shows, via a traffic light, whether certification, fitness to dive and insurance are valid and verified. You verify documents with one tap, add clarification notes if needed, and instantly see who can get in the water without questions.

In 18. Every guest picks their own language - from the form to the signature. So international guests understand every question and every liability text too, without you having to translate at the front desk.

No. Diver ID runs in the browser of any device - the guest scans the QR code with their own phone or checks in on the center's tablet at the front desk. No app download, no installation. Type in the details, sign on the screen, done.

In practice this is rare - and a simple phone hotspot is enough as a backup at the front desk. If the connection does drop entirely, Diver ID keeps today's status available offline: your already checked-in guests, their traffic lights and the boat lists stay accessible, so operations keep running. Only for brand-new guests who haven't checked in yet do you briefly reach for a paper form - and add them later, as soon as you're back online.

Yes. From your checked-in guests you plan dive activities and day trips and assign them to boats. Boat lists show at a glance who is on board - including tanks, nitrox, rental gear, food, guides and notes - and can be printed as a PDF for the crew. Multi-day trips are created in one go.

Yes. Through rentals you check equipment out per guest and back in again, and you see who had what last. You note extras on the guest along the way, all in one place, no second system.

Yes. You invite your team and grant each person exactly the permissions they need - from check-in to lists to administration. So everyone pitches in without all of them seeing or changing everything.

Yes. Minors fill in the check-in themselves as usual - it is additionally signed by a legitimised parent or guardian. Both signatures end up together, securely stored, in the record.

All data is stored encrypted on EU servers. You receive exactly the documents you need to operate, the diver keeps control of their profile - GDPR-compliant and exportable at any time.

Yes, at any time: you export all records as complete archives - including all signed PDFs, which stay readable even without Diver ID. No lock-in.

You store your certifications, medical certificates and insurance just once and have them with you at every center. At the next center you check in from home and have nothing left to fill in at the desk. Your first check-in takes under 5 minutes, next time it takes seconds.

Then Diver ID still works: you add the dive center with one click and email it your complete diver record as a signed PDF. The center doesn't need an account and has nothing to install.

In the Connect area you'll find a cross-agency marketplace and a forum: used equipment, travel partners, dive buddies, jobs and lost & found - exchange among divers, independent of any agency.

Nothing. For divers Diver ID is free forever - create a profile, store your certifications and documents, check in at any dive center. Only the dive center pays, and even then only per actual guest check-in.

All of them: certifications from every dive organisation, dive-medical certificates, insurance and ID documents, your logbook. Once stored, you have them with you on every dive and can check in from home if you like - at the center you then have nothing left to fill in.

Yes. Diver ID keeps an eye on the validity of your documents and gets in touch in good time, before your dive-medical certificate or an insurance expires - so you never end up at the pool edge realising something's missing.

No. Diver ID runs entirely in the browser - scan the QR code or open the link, done. If you like, add Diver ID to your home screen with one tap like an app; an app-store download is never needed.

You do. Your profile is yours, everything is stored encrypted on EU servers. A dive center only ever gets the documents it really needs for your check-in - and only when you check in. You can export or delete at any time.
