Live Availability Checker to Prevent Overbooking

The Live Availability Checker is a tool that helps you to manage your reservations and prevent overbooking. It works by checking the availability in real-time and providing up-to-date information to both the business and the customer.

The Live Availability Checker acts as a central hub where you can manage all your bookings from different channels. Whenever a customer makes a booking, the Live Availability Checker automatically updates the availability, making it visible to other potential customers. This ensures that customers are only offered booking options that are currently available and prevents the risk of double-booking.

Create Reservations at Ease

Making reservations is a breeze with our app. You have two easy options: simply click on the desired table or use the dedicated reservation form. The reservation form connects to your RT database, and as you type the first letter of the client’s name, a list of names appears. This allows you to choose from existing clients and automatically fills in their details such as name and phone number. You can add as many tables as needed to a single reservation and accommodate an unlimited number of guests. Customisation options include adding specific client’s preferences (e.g., smoker, deposit, etc.), comments, and venue zones

Edit Reservations

You can edit existing reservations with just one click. If any changes are necessary, you can easily update all the information entered, and even transfer the reservation to the waiting list if needed.

Closing A Reservation

In the event that you need to close a reservation, our app offers you several options to choose from, including:
• Client didn’t show up;
• Canceled by the customer;
• Canceled by the venue.

The selected reason will be accurately recorded in our database under the specific reservation and client’s name, ensuring clear and organized record-keeping.

Automated Data Entries from Incoming Phone Calls

When a customer calls to make a reservation, the system can automatically recognize the phone number and cross-reference it with the data already stored in your database. This eliminates the need for manual data entry. If the phone number matches an existing customer, the app can automatically retrieve and fills their data into the new reservation, including their name, phone number, and any other relevant information.

This not only saves time and reduces the risk of errors or typos, but also provides a personalised experience for the customer. Your staff will be able to address the customer by name and reference any past reservations or preferences.

Module for Customer Accommodation and Quick Reservation Search and Browsing

You can easily search for specific reservations by entering relevant keywords or letters, and sort them by customer name, date or time. Sorting reservations by name and time allows you to quickly organize and prioritise bookings, making it easier to manage the workload.

The module enables users to browse through reservations effortlessly, providing a seamless experience for both customers and staff.

Quick Print of The Reservations

Our app includes a button in the Administration module that allows a quick printing of reservations for a specified time period – whether it be for the day, week, or a customized period.

Once the time period is selected, the system generates a comprehensive list of all reservations within that period, including customer name, reservation date, time, and any other relevant details. Additionally, you can customise the reservation list before printing, providing the flexibility to choose which information to include or exclude.

Easy Seating

The Reservation Tools app simplifies the process of assigning tables to customers with just a few clicks, making it easy for your team to provide top-notch service to your customers.

Due to the intuitive interface, tables are displayed graphically, making it easy to visualize the available seating options and assign them accordingly.

You can also assign tables to customers without reservation. By providing a clear, visual representation of available tables and party sizes, the app makes it easy to avoid assigning tables that are already occupied or reserved.

Customer Rating

The customer rating option allows you to rate your clients using a five-star rating system, which is stored in the database along with other client’s information such as reservation history and preferences.

Reservation Notifications for Clients – SMS & Email

Reduce the number of no-shows and enhance customer loyalty towards your brand and services.

The RT app allows to create and personalize SMS and email reminders for your clients regarding their reservations. You have full control to customise the content of the message to include details about the reservation status, such as cancellation, confirmation, completion, expiration, rejection, or reminder.

Reservation Notifications for Staff Members – SMS & Email

This option allows staff members to receive reservation notifications via SMS and email. You can customize and personalize notifications to inform staff members of any new or updated reservations made by clients.

Additionally, the RT app also provides the option to notify other staff members when a reservation has been created, removed, or modified by a colleague. This feature helps ensure that all team members are up-to-date on reservation changes and can work together more effectively to manage bookings.

Payments

You can create payments for deposits. Each reservation has a profile URL page that is sent to customers via a notification or manually. The page contains all online payment options like paying with card or providing a bank information. Payments with cards are automatically marked as paid. You can also add cash payments and mark bank payments as paid.

Customer Database & CRM (Customer Relationship Management)

Build a highly-efficient customer database by keeping track of important information about your customers and provide a more personalized and efficient service.

For regular customers, the CRM tool also keeps track of clients’ personal preferences, such as their preferred seating location or their favorite menu items, as well as any allergies or dietary restrictions the customer may have. This information can be used to provide personalized service and make the customer feel valued and appreciated.

The CRM tool also enables you to rate your customers, based on factors such as their frequency of visits, spending habits, and overall satisfaction with their experience. This information can be used to target promotions and discounts to specific customers, or to identify areas where the business can improve its service.

Statistics and Reports

Our reservation app comes equipped with a powerful statistics and reporting feature that enables businesses to make data-driven decisions and optimize their operations. This feature provides detailed reports regarding venue occupancy, effectiveness of different reservation channels used, analysis of the type of reservations, and customer information.

The Dashboard for insights and statistics offers a comprehensive overview of the business operations. With this feature, you can easily access key performance indicators such as the number of reservations made by day, month, year, or custom period and to identify peak periods and adjust staffing and inventory levels accordingly. You can view the percentage of reservations that have been confirmed, canceled, or are pending, providing an overall snapshot of the status of reservations.

You can check the percentage rate of reservations by channel, that will enables you to analyze the effectiveness of different reservation channels, such as phone, website, or third-party platforms. This information could be used to optimize marketing and promotional strategies and allocate resources to the most effective channels.

Activity Log

You can keep track of all the actions executed by every single user connected to the venue account. This feature is useful for managers who need to identify which member of staff is responsible for specific actions related to reservation creation and editing.

The Activity Log feature provides an extra level of accountability and transparency for all users connected to the venue account. Users can be confident that their actions are being recorded and that they can be traced back to specific individuals if needed.

If you have any questions or issues, our customer support team is always available to help you.
