Google Pay and Apple Wallet for coupons

10/13/2024

You surely know that the system supports the option for customers to add their ticket or QR code to Google or Apple Wallet (Settings / Reservation page / Advanced settings). It is now possible to store vouchers in these customer wallets.

This is especially effective if you use a new type of coupon with "Gradually draweble amount" for your customers. In this case, the customer not only stores the QR code of the coupon in the wallet, but also sees the current value that is still left on the coupon.

New type of coupons

8/26/2024

Gift copouns can be used in a variety of ways to suit your particular business model. We have now added another type of coupon called "Gradually drawable amount". This is a coupon type that provides an e-wallet based operation. The coupon has a value and its application when a booking is made deducts the cost of the reservation (or part of it) from its value in stages. Thus, a coupon can be used multiple times until its value is completely exhausted. Another new type is the "Without discount" coupon. This has no discount or coupon value set. It is ideal for use in cases where the booking needs to be conditional on entering a coupon code (e.g. a limited group of customers), but at the same time it is not a discount.

All vouchers that the customer receives from the system can now be saved in Apple Pay or Google Pay apps. The customer can thus have a quick overview of their valid coupons, remaining value, etc.

Comgate payment terminal support

8/2/2024

We bring you a new feature that can once again make your business very efficient. If you want or need to accept payments from your customers, it is already a matter of course that our system offers the possibility of using several online payment gateways as well as simple payment terminals. The system can now be connected to professional physical payment terminals that are commonly used in the most demanding operations and services. Specifically, these are Comgate payment terminals. The combination of a payment gateway and a Comgate terminal makes it very easy to use the full potential of modern payment methods.

You can find out how the payment terminal works and what it needs for its operation in our documentation.

Nuki smart locks

6/11/2024

The Nuki brand is another major player in smart locks. It is now possible to link the reservation system to these locks and dynamically generate access codes for customer reservations. Nuki's solution is based on the principle that the lock is connected online to the internet and the system is thus able to communicate with the lock directly, allowing for more flexible setup and invalidation of the code when a reservation is cancelled. This solution is particularly suitable for shared offices, meeting rooms, etc. Please refer to the documentation for more information.

Deposit payment for reservation

5/31/2024

In some situations, it is not entirely efficient to require full payment online at the time of booking. For example, if the exact price is not known at the time of booking or if the cancellation policy only allows for a partial fee. In these cases, it is now possible to require only a partial payment, called a deposit.

When specifying the price within the event, it is possible to set whether payment of the full price or only a partial deposit is required. In the case of an advance payment, it is then easy to specify whether it is a fixed amount or a percentage of the calculated price. Everything then works in exactly the same way as for online payment of the entire reservation, with the only difference that the balance must be paid afterwards. For more information on the option to require only deposits when paying online, please refer to the documentation.

Payment gateway Comgate

5/15/2024

We have been asked quite often whether we support the Comgate payment gateway. So, as of today, Comgate is already among the supported payment gateways.

The Comgate payment gateway offers an interesting fee model that is effective even for businesses with relatively small monthly turnover. It goes without saying that this payment gateway offers a range of payment methods, including Apple Pay, Google Pay and deferred payments.

If there is interest in this payment gateway, we plan to consider integrating Comgate payment terminals as well - let us know if supporting these payment terminals would be of interest to you.

Custom forms for coupons

4/15/2024

We have a new feature that will make it easier for you to communicate with your customers if you sell coupons online. Similar to the custom forms for reservations, it is now possible to create custom forms for coupons as well. This way you can very easily get the additional information you need to subsequently redeem the coupon code, the mandatory check mark to read the terms and conditions or perhaps a dedication written on the coupon.

The information obtained in this way can be found in the details of the specific coupon code. You can also use this information in the design of the coupon using a placeholder string. Last but not least, if the coupon has a custom form set up, this form can also be filled in when you create the coupon code manually in the administration.

For more information about custom forms, see the documentation.

Improved appearance of coupon sales

12/16/2023

Do you sell gift cards to your customers? Do you think this could be a good addition to the bookings themselves? Thanks to this innovation, you can significantly advance the offer and sales of vouchers for your customers.

As part of managing and editing gift vouchers, you can divide the offer of vouchers into different groups and, above all, activate the display including previews of individual vouchers. You can find more about the issue of gift vouchers and their online sale in the documentation.
