Towpath The Estate Seven products · pick what fits August 2026
Seven tools that get UK small businesses found, paid and running smoothly

Seven products.
One job each.
Pick what you need.

Plain
price,
no faff

Each product does one thing properly — get found, get paid, get a website, run the operation. Each has its own simple price and its own page. Use one, use all seven. They share one connected system underneath — one identity, one way of working — but none depends on the others.

No. 01 The products Seven cards · one per product · skip what you don't need

Each one does
one job, properly.

All seven products below. Each card tells you what it does, who it's for, what it costs and where to read more. They fall into three groups: the water, the trades, and keeping contacts straight. Six are live today; The Boat Market is launching soon.

Group 01 · On the water

Marinas, yards, and the boats they look after.

PayCamp runs the day — berths, bookings, metering, payments — with Yard Manager doing the workshop half. The Boat Market is where a boat eventually changes hands, carrying the service history the yard already wrote.

Live
Run your operation
PayCamp.

Run your marina, campsite or boatyard from one screen — bookings, pitches, moorings, electricity metering, BSS compliance and card payments, with Yard Manager built in. From £49/mo.

For marinas, campsites, caravan parks and boatyards.

See PayCamp paycamp.co.uk
Launching soon
Buy & sell
The Boat Market.

Buying and selling boats, with trust built in. Sellers verified, BSS certificates checked, and payment held until handover — the marketplace opens first, the protections follow.

For boat owners and buyers who want a safe sale.

Launching soon theboatmarket.co.uk
Group 02 · For small trades

Get found, get paid, get the credit.

GotAPal is where customers find you. ServicePay quotes the job and takes the money. 3 Wee Pages gives you your own .co.uk to send people to. Any one of the three stands perfectly well on its own.

Live
Get found
GotAPal.

The UK trade directory where customers find and trust you. Verified reviews from real paid jobs, no pay-to-rank, no lead bidding. Free to claim, forever.

For trades getting found, and customers looking for one.

See GotAPal gotapal.com
Live
Get paid
ServicePay.

Quote, do the job, get paid the day you finish. One shared link runs quote to approval to invoice to card payment — then fires a verified review to GotAPal automatically. From £39/mo.

For trades and service businesses with mobile customers.

See ServicePay servicepay.uk
Live
Your front door
3 Wee Pages.

A proper three-page website and your own .co.uk, built by a real person and live in days. £149 to launch (first 50, £199 after), then £49/yr. You own the domain, no monthly lock-in.

For trades and sole traders that need a site by Friday.

See 3 Wee Pages 3weepages.co.uk
Group 03 · Contacts that stay right

Two ends of the same problem.

Universal Contacts is your own card, kept up to date by you. Central Contacts is the address book your whole business shares. Neither sells your contacts, and neither needs the other to be useful.

Live
Stay connected
Universal Contacts.

Your contact card, made live — one profile for your phone, email, WhatsApp, website, reviews and payment links, shared by QR, link or NFC card. Update it once and every card you’ve handed out stays current. Free live profile; NFC cards from £15 launch pricing.

For any business tired of three out-of-date contact lists.

See Universal Contacts universalcontacts.co.uk
Live
Keep everyone in one place
Central Contacts.

One address book for the whole business — every customer, supplier and contractor in one shared place, updated once so everyone has the right number. Your contacts stay yours: never sold, never marketed to.

For any business whose contacts live in three phones and a spreadsheet.

See Central Contacts centralcontacts.co.uk
No. 01a Hand-offs Named, specific, and entirely optional

Where one hands off
to the next.

Nothing is pooled and nothing follows you about. These are simply the places where work one product has already done is exactly what the next one needs — so you type it once, or not at all.

The service history a yard writes in Yard Manager is the service history a buyer reads on the listing. Nobody re-types it, and nobody has to take the seller at their word.

A boat on the free register comes to market with its ownership trail already in place — which is the first thing any sensible buyer asks about.

Berths, bookings, metering and card payments on one screen; workshop jobs, parts and engineer time on the same one. It is one yard, so it is one system.

People keep their own card right at their end. Your business address book stops going stale at yours, because nobody is re-typing a number that already changed.

On the trades side, a paid job turns into an earned review — that one is just below.

No. 01c Also live Built here · running today

And these are
already running.

The seven products above are the range we sell and support. They are not everything the workshop has built. These are live today — some are a doorway onto a product above, some stand entirely on their own.

Live
Run the yard
Yard Manager.

Workshop software for boatyards and marinas — work orders, haul-out scheduling, parts, zone tracking and progressive invoicing. Two doorways onto one system: boatyardmanager.co.uk for yards, marinayardmanager.co.uk for marinas.

For yards and marinas with a workshop and a waiting list.

See Yard Manager boatyardmanager.co.uk
Live
Run the hire fleet
HireHelm.

Boat hire software for UK operators — online bookings, digital waivers, fleet availability and payments from one dashboard. It can share a Stripe account with PayCamp, so a marina running both sees the money land in the same place.

For boat, kayak and paddleboard hire operators.

See HireHelm hirehelm.co.uk
Live
Sort the certificate
Boat Safety Hub.

The UK boat-safety directory — marinas and moorings, verified BSS examiners, marine surveyors and specialist insurers, in one place. It works alongside the official Boat Safety Scheme, not instead of it.

For boat owners with a BSS certificate coming due.

See Boat Safety Hub boatsafetyhub.co.uk
Live
Prove the disposal
WipeTrail.

The platform an IT asset disposal yard runs on — collections, device intake, erasure logs, certificates and serial-level chain of custody, built with the Digital Waste Tracking rules in mind. MakeITgood run their yard on it today.

For ITAD, data-erasure and WEEE operators.

See WipeTrail wipetrail.com
Live
Find a repair shop
WeeMenders.

Find a trusted local repair shop for phones, laptops, tablets and consoles — compare shops nearby, read reviews left after a real repair, and book. Free for the person with the cracked screen.

For owners looking for a mender, and the shops that want finding.

See WeeMenders weemenders.uk

Four more are in build — MendBench, WeeBox, Pitch & Park and LetsBookDirect. They will appear here when they are open to customers, and not before.

No. 02 Better together Each one stands alone — but they help each other along

Strong on their own.
Even better paired.

Because they share one way of working, the products quietly hand work to each other — a finished job becomes a review, and that review helps the next customer find you. You never have to buy more than one to feel it.

I. Get paid, get reviewed

ServicePay feeds GotAPal.

Finish a job and take payment through ServicePay, and a verified review request fires to your customer automatically. The review they leave lands on your GotAPal listing, badged as a real paid job — the kind of proof that wins the next enquiry.

The loopJob → payment → verified review
II. A front door for your listing

3 Wee Pages gives you a home.

Your GotAPal listing gets you found; 3 Wee Pages gives you a proper website and your own .co.uk to send customers to. Together they make you look the part everywhere a customer might check before they call.

The pairListing + your own website
III. One operation, one screen

PayCamp runs the day-to-day.

If you run a marina, campsite or boatyard, PayCamp handles the bookings, berths, metering and card payments in one place — with Yard Manager built in. Add Universal Contacts so everyone hands out a live contact card that’s always up to date.

The baseOperation + tidy contacts
No. 03 No lock-in A suite is what you build, not what we sell

The estate is connected.
Your subscription isn't.

Towpath is not a platform you commit to. It's a small set of useful products that share a platform underneath — one identity, contacts, payments and records — without ever forcing you into a suite. Use one. Use seven. Each has its own price and its own page, and your data leaves with you whenever you like. You own your data, your business owns its records, and Towpath only connects them — with your permission. We never market to, use, or sign up the people in your records.

I. No tied bundles

You pay only for what you use.

If you only want PayCamp, you only buy PayCamp. There is no "starter suite", no parent contract, no hidden charge for products you didn't ask for. Each one has its own bill, plainly stated in pounds, ex-VAT.

Each productOwn price, own page
II. No data hostage

You own your data.

Cancel any product, any time. Your data exports in a few clicks, in a portable format, for free. We don't hold your customer list, your bookings or your invoices against your decision to leave. We just send them home with you.

ExportA few clicks, free, forever
III. No suite upsell

You won't get nudged into the others.

Sign up for one product and you'll never get a pop-up asking if you've considered the others. The products are all written down here, on this page. The rest is your move, whenever it suits you.
