What should a dive centre in Micronesia run on?
Micronesia's divers travel a long way for one thing: wrecks in Chuuk, mantas in Yap, passes in Pohnpei. They plan months ahead and ask a lot of questions first. DiveOps answers them around the clock and runs the boats, the divers, the kit and the team from one login.
The short answer
DiveOps suits dive centres in the Federated States of Micronesia, from Chuuk Lagoon's wrecks to Yap's mantas and Pohnpei's passes: it keeps each diver's certification and medical on the booking, plans every boat, tracks gear and cylinders, runs in US dollars and answers enquiries 24/7 on WhatsApp.

The FSM Visitors Board calls Chuuk Lagoon the wreck diving capital of the world, with the Japanese fleet sunk in the Second World War now covered in coral, and asks divers to leave every artefact where it lies. Divers also need a Chuuk State permit to dive the wrecks.
Wreck divers come with deep, nitrox and technical certifications, and each one needs checking before the boat. DiveOps keeps every diver's certification and medical on the booking, filled in on their phone before arrival, so the guide knows who can go where.
Yap's mantas and Pohnpei's passes
Yap and Pohnpei are known for reef passes where large groups of manta rays feed all year, and Kosrae's fringing reef is home to more than 250 reef fish species. Each island runs its own day boats, timed to the tide.
DiveOps builds each boat's trip sheet from the bookings, groups divers by guide, and works out kit sizes and cylinders for the whole boat, so the crew and the shop see the same plan.
Long-haul divers, many time zones
Divers fly in from the US, Japan, Europe and Australia, and their messages arrive at every hour. DiveOps' WhatsApp AI answers on your centre's own number through the official Meta Business API, in the diver's language, replies in under 2 minutes, handles around 92% of routine questions itself and sends your booking link. A person at the centre confirms every booking and takes over any chat that needs one.
Day boats first, liveaboard places as dated trips
DiveOps is built for day-boat and shore-based centres and does not run liveaboards. If you also offer liveaboard places, list each liveaboard departure as a dated trip with its own spaces and price on your booking page.
Courses are tracked to instructor sign-off under SSI, PADI, SDI/TDI or any agency you teach, and staff rosters, payroll, the shop till and double-entry books come from the same records, so centres get roughly 8 hours a week of admin back.
US dollars and one plan
The Federated States of Micronesia use the US dollar, and so can DiveOps: prices, the shop till, payroll and reports all run in US dollars. Payments can be taken by payment link with PayPal where it is available to you, or recorded at the desk.
DiveOps is one plan with every feature, priced by the number of divers you run through the year. Book a demo and see it set up against your own boats, sites and team.
Questions, answered.
Can DiveOps check technical and nitrox certifications for wreck divers?
Yes. Each diver's certifications sit on the booking, sent from their phone before arrival, so the guide can see who is cleared for which dive before the boat leaves.
Does DiveOps run liveaboards?
No. It is built for day-boat and shore-based centres. If you offer liveaboard places, each departure can be listed as a dated trip with its own spaces and price.
Does it work in US dollars?
Yes. Prices, payments, the shop till, payroll and reports all run in US dollars.
