Benefits for your business
Eight high-impact advantages of our restaurant reservation system—out of 50+ options. Built to grow online reservations, speed seating, and keep data clean. Request for the full list.
Fewer no-shows & late cancellations
Guests commit with money—fewer empty tables at peak. Even if they cancel, the deposit covers your minimum spend/holding cost.
Predictable production, less waste
Advance payment for dishes gives you a locked-in order pipeline: exact portions, fire times, and station load per time slot. That means tighter inventory control, smarter purchasing, fewer 86s, and lower food waste—especially for set menus, tastings, banquets, and peak services.
More table turns
With menu prepayments, the kitchen gets the order before the guest arrives. Prep starts earlier, courses hit the table on time, and checks don’t clog the host stand at the end—resulting in shorter wait times and faster table turns.
Less admin, faster service
Auto-confirm on payment with clear statuses; if a guest doesn’t pay within the set window, the reservation auto-cancels, freeing the table for others.
Predictable revenue & protected peak slots

Deposits secure bookings, stabilize income, and help plan purchasing and staffing for busy services and premium areas
Higher AOV through planned upsells
Higher AOV through planned upsells
When guests prepay items (e.g., tasting menu, wine pairing, occasion cake), you secure revenue before service and can add smart upsells in the flow (pairings, add-ons, experiences). The outcome is a higher average order value and more consistent revenue, with compliant digital/fiscal receipts and full restaurant analytics on prepay uptake and channel performance.
