Fill tables without the phone tag
Take bookings with deposits, see them from the POS and dashboard, and apply the deposit straight to the final bill — with a clear cancel and reschedule flow customers can use themselves.
Bookings live in a paper diary
Phone bookings and a paper diary mean double-bookings, no-shows and lost deposits. Nobody at the counter can see what's coming, and reschedules are a mess.
- Double-bookings and missed reservations
- No-shows with no deposit to cover them
- Counter staff can't see today's bookings
- Cancellations and reschedules handled by phone
Bookings connected to the bill
Reservations sit inside the platform: take a deposit on booking, view the day's tables from POS or dashboard, and apply the deposit as a prepaid tender when the guest pays.
- Take deposits at the time of booking
- See reservations from POS and dashboard
- Apply the deposit to the final bill as a tender
- Self-service cancel and reschedule links
- Audit trail for changes and staff actions
