Online bookings will reduce no-shows

Customers who made a financial commitment by booking and paying for their appointments, activities and events are more likely to show up, resulting in significantly fewer no-show. Using email and SMS reminder notification further reduces no-shows as customers are notified just prior to the appointment, activity or event. In the event a customer does need to cancel, their spot automatically becomes available again so someone else can book it.

Happy Customers

Your business is open around the clock

You can maximise bookings

Customers who book their own bookings are more likely to show up, making no-shows a thing of the past. If a customer does need to cancel, the spot automatically opens up, giving another customer the chance to book it. By maximising your bookings, you won’t leave unused activity spots or rentals on the table.

Online booking means faster payments.

An online booking system can require customers to prepay for appointment, activities and events upfront. If you currently do not have an online booking and payment software, you must wait for customers to show up before you can collect payment. Online booking pre-payments puts money into your pocket faster and helps make sure that on the day of the appointment, activities or events you don’t have to worry about payment. Taking pre-payments at time of booking improves your cash flow as you have the money in advance and do not have to chase payments later.
