Bookings

Ticketed nights, not another table order

Cafés, restaurants, and hotels use Take Bookings when the night is a pass — a supper club, a set-menu sitting, or a function in the hotel. Guests pay and get a pass. You check them in from your phone.

Questions

Is this the same as Take Orders?
No. Take Orders is a diner at a table and a ticket on the kitchen screen. Bookings is a pass and a guest list for a ticketed night.
Do guests need an app?
No. They pay on their phone and show a pass at the door.
