Organizing items into categories
Categories are the groupings customers browse by, in the order you choose, with their own default waiver.

Fleet → Categories
Categories are the groups customers browse by on your storefront — like "Jet Skis" or "Mountain Bikes." Every fleet item belongs to exactly one category, and the order you arrange categories in here is the order customers see them.

Categories & Listing Order, with drag-to-reorder
How it works
- Category Name — the name shown to customers; must be unique within your business.
- Category Slug — a web-friendly version of the name (e.g. "jet-skis"), generated automatically from the name.
- Description — internal notes about the category; customers don't see this.
- Category Image — a thumbnail shown on category listings.
- Waiver for this category — the waiver applied to any item in this category that chooses Use the category's waiver on its own Requirements tab. If you leave this as No waiver — use the business default, those items fall back to your business's own default waiver instead.
- Drag to reorder — drag a category row to change the order customers see on the storefront.
Good to know
- You can't delete a category while any fleet item is still assigned to it. Move or delete those items first, then delete the category.
- The category waiver only matters for items that choose Use the category's waiver on their own Requirements tab — see Waivers, age minimums, and requirements on one item.
