‘A table of six that doesn’t show up is my Saturday. I don’t have time to call everyone back, nor a tool to ask for a guarantee.’

Why a card if the trial is free?

So your subscription carries on without a break when the trial ends. Nothing is charged for 21 days, we let you know before the first payment, and if you cancel before then, you pay nothing.

I’m on TheFork or Zenchef. Do I lose my history?

No. Our team imports your contacts and your history during setup. You can keep a platform as an extra channel, and make direct booking the rule.

Are my data and my guests’ data protected?

Yes. Exchanges are encrypted, every account is protected by two-factor authentication and we never sell any data. You can export your data at any time, and it is deleted 30 days after cancellation.

What if the WhatsApp agent gets it wrong?

It only books within your rules: opening hours, capacity, closing days. When it is not sure, it hands over to your team, and you see every conversation in your inbox.

How long before I’m up and running?

About 10 minutes after validation. The floor plan imports from a photo, WhatsApp connects in one click, and our team helps you if needed.

Every unanswered message is a table that goes elsewhere.

Nothing is charged for 21 days. No commitment on the monthly plan. Cancel before the first payment and you pay nothing.
