Frequently asked questions
Is EZDZ Waiver a direct replacement for Smartwaiver?+
For most adventure and high-liability operations, yes. EZDZ covers the same core workflow — digital waivers, signed records, audit trail — with a PDF upload path that keeps your existing legal language intact. The main difference is EZDZ is purpose-built for adventure businesses rather than a generic market.
Can I switch from Smartwaiver without rebuilding my waivers?+
Yes. Upload your current PDFs to EZDZ and place signature fields where needed. You don't need to rewrite anything. The signed record format and audit metadata are comparable to what Smartwaiver captures.
How does EZDZ pricing compare to Smartwaiver at higher volumes?+
At the entry tier both are $19/month, but EZDZ includes 125 waivers vs Smartwaiver's 100. At high volume both reach $199/month, but EZDZ includes 2,750 waivers vs Smartwaiver's 2,500. The mid-tier is the one area where Smartwaiver is cheaper ($55 for 300), but EZDZ Pro gives significantly more volume at $79 (750 waivers).
Does EZDZ have API and webhooks like Smartwaiver?+
Yes. API and webhooks are available on EZDZ Pro and above ($79/month). If you need system integrations with manifest software, booking tools, or CRMs, Pro is the right plan.
What happens to my existing Smartwaiver data if I switch?+
Your historical signed records stay in Smartwaiver — you can export them before canceling. Going forward, new waivers are captured in EZDZ. Most operators run a brief parallel period during the transition.
Is there a free trial to test EZDZ before committing?+
Yes. Every plan includes a 14-day free trial. You can upload your PDF, test the signing flow, and validate fit with your front-desk team before canceling your current subscription.
