JTT for Dive Centers
More 5★ reviews and cashless, optional tips —
$ / €0
cost to your dive shop
Your instructors and crew create unforgettable underwater days—yet most divers finish with no cash and no easy way to say "thanks." With JTT, guests scan a QR at the Farewell, tip in seconds (no app), and leave a quick rating. 4–5★ guests are routed to your chosen review platform; 1–3★ feedback stays private so you can resolve issues quietly.
Your cost: $ / €0. A small JTT platform fee and card processing fees are shown transparently to the guest before they pay. No POS changes.
Primary outcomes
  • More 4–5★ public reviews (Google, TripAdvisor, Yelp, Booking.com — one active at a time)
  • Optional digital tips for instructors, divemasters, boat crew, and photo/video teams—no cash handling
  • Private, actionable feedback to coach staff and refine operations

Best placement practices (what actually drives tips & reviews)
Farewell Points (top performers)
  • Dock or pier exit placard (matte, UV/water-safe, non-glare), positioned where divers pause—not in a bottleneck.
  • Gear-return / rinse tank area sign (eye level, splash-resistant).
  • Photo/video desk stand where divers review shots.
Shop & Classroom
  • Front counter tent by the card terminal (no POS change).
  • Classroom whiteboard corner for course debriefs and cert sign-offs.
  • Certification stamp/logbook table mini-stand.
Boats & Shore Vans
  • Cabin/galley stand (indoor/sheltered) for post-trip announcements.
  • Exit ladder rail signage on the dock—not on the vessel if it risks glare/slip or loose items.
  • Shore van door placard used during pack-down.
Design rules
  • High contrast, generous whitespace, headline "Scan to tip — no app", short URL under the QR.
  • Waterproof/laminated, anti-glare, UV-resistant; stainless or secure mounts in wind/spray.
  • Minimum QR 5–7 cm / 2–3 in; larger for distance/bright sun.
  • For attribution, use on-land placements; avoid lanyards in the water or on deck if they create snag risks.
Suggested staff one-liners (non-pushy, one time)
Deliver once at a natural Farewell moment. Smile, point once, move on.
Instructor / Divemaster
"If you enjoyed today's dives, you can scan here to leave a quick tip for the team—totally optional. Thank you!"
Boat Crew / Captain (on dock or shop)
"Thanks for joining us—there's a small QR by the gear return if you'd like to tip the crew."
Photo/Video Team
"If you loved the shots, there's a QR on the counter for a quick thank-you—much appreciated."
DOs:
keep it brief, one mention, position near natural pause points.
DON'Ts:
don't repeat, don't suggest amounts, don't handle guest phones, don't prompt during safety-critical moments.
Team vs individual tips (you choose)
Team / pooledBoat Crew, Instructors & DMs, Photo Team
  • Easiest start; distributes fairly across shared roles on a boat day.
Individual attribution — each instructor/DM has a personal QR
(counter nameplate, classroom board, printed card)
  • Great for recognition, courses, and private guiding.
Many centers mix both: a Boat Crew QR at Farewell + individual instructor nameplates in the classroom/shop. Funds can settle to the business; you distribute per your policy. JTT provides rails & reporting; tip allocation/compliance remain with you.
Turn tips into reviews (and protect your brand)
After payment, divers leave stars
4–5★

FAQs (dive centers)
Does this replace our POS or booking system?
No—JTT sits alongside your current setup. Keep your POS/booking unchanged.
Who pays fees?
The guest. They see a transparent breakdown before paying. JTT is $ / €0 for your dive shop.
Multiple boats/departures per day?
Create one QR per boat/route or per team/instructor. Your dashboard shows totals by endpoint.
Salt, sun, and spray?
Use waterproof, UV-resistant, matte materials and secure mounts. Always include a short URL for later.
Is this GDPR/PCI friendly?
Payments are processed by a PCI-compliant provider; JTT doesn't store card numbers and doesn't show guest PII to staff. (General info; not legal advice.)
Which review platform first?
Coastal/tourist markets often benefit most from TripAdvisor or Google. You can switch anytime (one active at a time).
