reservation system for
your business

Reach and communicate with your customers in their own language, whether they're booking from your home country or from abroad – the reservation page and the entire administration can run in multiple language versions at the same time. 4 supported languages are available for the administration, and 7 languages are available for localizing the reservation page.

Custom content that you enter into the system yourself (terms and conditions, resource descriptions, event names, homepage information, etc.) needs to be translated and provided by you. The system offers a clear way to manage information across multiple languages.

Collect the documents you need from customers directly during the booking process – consents, confirmations, photos, or other files, which you'll always have on hand for a specific reservation or customer. Similarly, you can also store documents for a specific customer and have a complete profile with their history.

The storage feature lets customers upload, and the system store, files linked to a specific reservation or customer profile. Typical uses include various confirmations, powers of attorney, photos, or copies of documents needed to provide the service – anything that makes communication and the delivery of the service itself easier, because you already have the documents available at the time of booking.

File uploads are added to the booking form using custom forms as a separate form field. A file can also be collected during the customer registration process, through a similar extension of the registration form. Another option is managing files directly in the administration, where you can typically work with them within a specific customer's detail page.

Offer customers a booking for several consecutive days at once – ideal for rentals and accommodation, which are usually counted in nights or days rather than hours.

This event type lets a customer book one or more consecutive days. In this case, the definition of the events follows on from each other (based on resources), and the system can automatically link such events together. This makes it easy to set, for example, a different price for different days – typically a higher price for weekend accommodation compared to weekdays. Combined with conditional pricing, pricing within this event type can therefore be very flexible.

It's particularly suited to accommodation and space rentals, but you'll also find it useful for all kinds of rental businesses – cars, campervans, e-bikes, or other equipment, where price and availability are calculated at the level of days or nights. By setting a minimum and maximum reservation length, you can easily offer a weekly or weekend rental.

Offer loyal customers a more convenient way to pay for repeat visits – a punch card for a set number of visits or value, or top-up customer credit.

The reenio system offers several ways to let customers pay for reservations based on a previously prepaid value, instead of individual direct payments.

Punch cards work as a special type of coupon with a set number of visits or a gradually drawn-down amount (credit-based punch card). Applying the punch card code adjusts the reservation price accordingly, either by subtracting a defined amount or applying a discount of up to 100%. These codes don't have to be tied to a specific registered customer account, so they can be used easily and flexibly. They can also be restricted to specific events, so you clearly define which offered activities a punch card can be used for and which not.

Customer credit, on the other hand, works as a virtual wallet linked to a registered and logged-in customer account. A customer can top up their credit themselves online via a payment gateway (potentially with a bonus), or you can top it up manually in the administration, for example when paying in cash at reception. A credit wallet can in principle also have an expiration set.

Both solutions can be used effectively together with online payments, where the whole process of purchasing punch cards or credit can be fully automated. There are many possibilities, and it always depends on your specific settings and how you think through how and under what rules these customer-loyalty tools will work for your particular type of business.

Keep a clear customer database with a reservation history and a whole range of related tools. The reenio system automatically builds the customer database based on reservations made or direct registration. A registered customer gains the ability to log in and manage their reservations directly within the reservation page. If customer credit is used, they can see their balance within their account and top it up online.

Depending on your settings, a reservation can also be allowed without registration, simply by entering an e-mail address or phone number, which is especially suitable where you don't expect one specific customer to use the reservation system regularly and often.

A well-maintained, extensive customer database is an important marketing tool. The system offers the option of bulk sending e-mail or SMS messages, which is useful for reaching customers with a new offer, a discount campaign, but also operational information or as part of crisis management.

The customer database naturally contains personal data, which today requires a certain approach to how it's handled and protected. The reservation system allows you to set up automatic deletion of personal data after a chosen period, and also keeps track of customer requests to have their data deleted. This makes it easier to meet GDPR requirements in line with the rules defined for your particular business.

If you need to import a customer database from another system or a manually maintained spreadsheet, that's no problem – an existing customer list can be easily and smartly imported into the reenio system.

Connect the reservation system to other applications, smart devices, or automation processes according to your own needs, using the API (Application Programming Interface).

Being able to use the API interface brings a completely new perspective on how you can work with the data managed and provided by the reservation system. Using HTTP-based queries, you can retrieve specific data about reservations, customer overviews, accounting documents, code lists, and more.

Another important element in this regard is so-called Webhooks. These are notifications that can notify any external system, based on an event that has occurred, that a new reservation has been made, that a payment has been received, and so on. Combining Webhook notifications with subsequently retrieving data via the API can result in a comprehensive implementation of your own data-processing logic.

So if you need to build your own statistics dashboards, control lighting in a hall based on ongoing reservations, turn on sauna heating, or communicate with a smart lock, and so on, then using the API offered by the reservation system is essential. A typical use is also a direct connection to automation services such as Make or Home Assistant. What data and methods the API provides (mostly access to data) is described in detail in the documentation.

The reenio mobile app (Android and iOS) is mainly used for quick and easy on-the-spot online check-in of individual reservations and tickets. It also includes an overview calendar of reservations and a customer list, so a reservation can be found even without knowing the specific code.

The app is therefore intended for administrators or other users (e.g. temp staff, front-of-house staff, receptionists) who need fast, hands-on access to data and information. This also means that a user doesn't need access to the full system administration to log into the app – a special authorization QR code can be used to log in instead.

A reservation code is primarily scanned as a QR code using the mobile device's camera, but it can also be entered manually or looked up. For larger numbers of visitors, it's a good idea to get a mobile device with a hardware laser code scanner – scanning is significantly faster and more reliable. Combined with automatic check-in mode, where, if everything about the reservation/ticket is in order, the code is automatically marked as checked in a moment after scanning, this becomes a very fast helper.

The app can also check in individual places within a single reservation (e.g. specific seats), and besides reservations it can also handle redeeming coupons or punch cards by scanning their code.

Easily get data about reservations and customers out of the reenio system, and then work with it in Excel, using AI, or use it for importing into other systems, for example for e-mail marketing.

Overviews of reservations and customers can be easily exported to Excel at any time, including data from your own custom booking and registration forms.

Besides a simple data export, the reservation system can also be connected to other systems using the API or webhooks, letting you pass data programmatically and in real time, as well as work with it at the level of its data structure.

A reservation in the reenio system doesn't have to mean just a booked slot in a calendar – it can also mean a ticket. It's just a different way of looking at what you're offering customers, what they're buying, and how the whole process then unfolds.

Every reservation carries everything you'd expect from a ticket – a unique code, a QR code for quick check-in, and information about the time and exactly what it can be used for. From this perspective, selling tickets is a fundamental way of using the reservation system. A ticket is often understood as a document that, for example, matches the visual identity of an event and also contains additional information. All of this can also be provided in the reenio system, where you can create your own design for the reservation confirmation = the look and content of the ticket.

The customer receives their ticket by e-mail right after payment, can save it to their Apple or Google Wallet, and you simply scan it with the mobile app at the entrance. If you want to sell tickets for events, it's really nothing more than a reservation with online payment and a custom confirmation design.

Let the reservation system automatically make sure you never have two reservations overlapping at the same time if they use the same resource. Thanks to collision protection, there's no problem creating a complex range of events and services while still ensuring effective management of reservations for the same time slot.

Resources (service, employee, place) in the reenio system serve not only as the informational basis for the range of events, their filtering, and navigation, but also as an important element in automating the whole reservation process. Thanks to collision protection, the system automatically evaluates whether a reservation can be created at a given time, or whether it would cause a collision due to the resources involved already being booked – for example, if a sauna would be booked at the same time by another reservation, but for a different service.

If you want to make reservations really efficiently, and want to offer your customers different options, services, prices, etc., then collision protection is definitely a feature worth understanding and getting right. For example, if you run a tire shop and car wash with 3 bays, thanks to collision protection you can offer different services (events) across the bays, and if a customer books one service in bay 1, no other reservation for the same time can be created for bay 1. And the reservation system takes care of exactly this automatically.

Collision protection is available for almost all event types. It cannot be used to protect against collisions at the level of individual seats in a seat map.

The reenio reservation system runs primarily on Microsoft Azure, one of the most widespread and thoroughly vetted cloud solutions in the world. Running in the cloud means you don't have to worry about your own servers, their maintenance, or backing up data – the infrastructure, availability, and security are handled by Microsoft, which invests heavily in the performance, security, and certification of the Azure platform over the long term. Some selected services also run on Amazon Web Services (AWS).

The Microsoft Azure platform was the first cloud solution in the Czech Republic to be vetted and listed in the eGovernment cloud computing catalogue, with the highest achievable security level, BÚ3. Running in such a vetted environment brings greater resilience against attacks or outages, modern data security, and continuous security updates already at the level of the platform itself.

Thanks to cloud operation, the reservation system is accessible from anywhere with an internet connection and can flexibly respond to growing demands – whether in terms of number of customers, reservations, or the volume of data.

Handle payments received in person on the spot too – mark a reservation as paid, generate an accounting document, and print it directly on a POS printer, or accept a card payment right away through a connected payment terminal.

The cash register feature lets you mark a reservation as paid directly in the administration, even when the payment took place outside the online payment gateway, for example in cash at reception. The system can then issue a corresponding accounting document for the payment received this way, respecting the configured document numbering, and so on.

For card payments, the system can also be connected to a payment terminal (SumUp, Genius, Comgate), which means a payment request can be sent to the terminal directly with a button in the reservation detail, and after a successful payment the system automatically marks the reservation as paid, creates the payment and document, and sends the customer a confirmation by e-mail, just like with payment via the online gateway.
