How you serve

Bookings that hold the table, or free it in time to sell it.

Reminders a guest answers in one tap, deposits on the parties that warrant them, and no-shows recorded whether or not anyone remembered.

What it does
01 / 03

Hold the table, or give it back.

6 things reservations does for you, each one because a restaurant asked for it.

01

A reminder with two buttons

“I’ll be there” and “Cancel”. No account, no password, so people actually answer it.

02

Move the booking, move the reminder

Reschedule and the reminder follows, so nobody is reminded about the wrong time.

03

No-shows record themselves

Set how long you keep holding. Anything still empty after that gets recorded on its own.

04

History before you confirm

Past visits and past no-shows show on the booking. Two no-shows and we flag it.

05

Deposits where they are warranted

Set the party size they start at. Refunded automatically inside your window, kept on a no-show.

06

A waitlist everyone can see

When a table frees up, the party that waited longest and actually fits it gets a text.

How it works
02 / 03

A full Saturday, handled

01

Times you can actually serve

Built from your hours and your seat count, so the site cannot offer a table you do not have.

02

Requests land somewhere

Accept them yourself, or let them confirm automatically.

03

The reminder goes out

Email, and a text where you have a number. A day ahead is usual.

04

The night gets measured

No-shows, cancellations, and covers by lunch and dinner.

Hi Emma, we are holding table 9 for four. Let us know either way so we can give it up if plans have changed.

No account. No password. One tap. That is most of the difference.

A cancellation frees the table there and then, in time to sell it rather than in time to write it off.
