Every reason you'd hesitate, answered plainly.

There is no monthly subscription, setup fee, or per-seat charge. Siima earns 1.9% of a booking when it's confirmed (minimum $2 per booking), invoiced once a month. The worked examples show it on real bookings, to the shilling.

Yes — price it into the quote and the guest carries it. It's your pricing decision, per market. How that works in costing.

Cancelled before it's invoiced: the fee is voided — you don't pay for trips that didn't happen. Once invoiced, it stands.

Never deducted from your money in flight. Fees accrue as bookings confirm; once a month you get one invoice in USD, due in 6 days, settled online or by bank transfer.

Core case, not an afterthought: scheduled slots with per-slot capacity, resident/international/child rates, QR check-in from any phone. You'll use less of the itinerary builder and more of the calendar.

Siima's deepest workflow: build the itinerary once, cost it per person, share the proposal by link, track deposit and balance, coordinate the partners delivering each leg.

Group departures are their own experience type: a fixed date that fills seat by seat, with capacity, a manifest, and per-seat pricing. Not a day trip forced to pretend.

So does most of this market — supplier coordination is a first-class feature: who's delivering what, for which trip, at what cost. See how operations handles partners.

Never. Guests get links — a proposal to review, a receipt, a voucher with a QR code. No sign-ups, no passwords, no app.

The honest current answer: exactly how they pay you today — your bank details, mobile money, cash, or your own PesaPal page for card and mobile-money payments online. Whatever arrives, you record it against the booking so the balance stays current.

Clean, mobile-first pages carrying your business name: the proposal, the booking summary, the voucher. They see your company — Siima stays in the plumbing.

Any time, to Excel — catalogue, bookings, guest details, payment records. No request forms, no waiting.

Yours. Your catalogue, your bookings, your guests. Siima processes it to run your operations — it doesn't own it, sell it, or market to your guests. The privacy page says this in writing.

Export everything, and go. There's no contract period and no cancellation fee — the model only works if staying is worth it every month.

Fourlanes, a software product studio in Kampala, founded by Edwin P. Magezi. Independent — no outside investors. The about page has the full picture and real contact details.

The 1.9% it earns when operators get paid. No investor runway to burn through, no pivot risk — Siima survives by being useful to operators, or not at all.

It starts on the demo call: we set up one of your real tours with you, live, so you leave the call with the beginning of a working catalogue — not a to-do list. From there we help you load the rest and get your team in.

Your first tour exists before the demo call ends. Most operators record their next real inquiry in Siima the same week.

No. Run them in parallel as long as you like — Siima earns nothing until bookings are confirmed in it, so there's no pressure to switch faster than you trust it.
