reservation system for
your business

Unlike other event types, the Coupon event type doesn't force the customer to choose a specific date and time to use the reserved services. The reservation only tells them the period during which they can use the service. That's exactly why this event type isn't suitable for services limited by capacity or a specific time – it doesn't let you set an overall capacity, because it isn't known in advance exactly when the customer will use their reservation.

This event type, or rather these reservations, are suitable anywhere you want to sell your services (typically in the form of tickets) while it doesn't much matter exactly when customers arrive, or what the limiting capacity is. Typical uses therefore include various exhibitions, zoos, historical sites, or various forms of access passes.

Offer your customers gift coupons for your services, and at the same time let them buy gift coupons online – the customer immediately receives their coupon by e-mail and can give it as a gift or use it right away.

Gift coupons are part of the broader discount coupon and punch card functionality, with a similar approach and possible uses for all these tools. You create a coupon with predefined parameters – a set validity period, discount amount, or value – and assign it to specific events it can be applied to (so you can have different coupons for different service offerings, or events that don't accept coupons at all). The customer then receives a coupon code, either directly from you or through an online purchase.

• One-off redeemable amount

  A classic coupon with a fixed monetary value, typically for one-off use as a gift.

• Percentage discount

  A discount coupon for a proportional amount, typically suitable for giving to new customers or as a punch card, etc.

• Gradually redeemable amount

  The coupon has a certain monetary value which is used up gradually – a form of virtual wallet.

• No discount

  A type of coupon that doesn't adjust the price at all, but can be used, for example, to restrict reservations to a limited group of customers.

For genuine gift coupons, the ability to create your own design (PDF) is important, reflecting not just your visual style and intended use, but also allowing space for a dedication and so on.

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, GP Tom, 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.

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.

Set prices for customers exactly to match your offering – different customer categories, discounts for longer bookings or bookings made well in advance, discount coupons, and any combination of all of these.

The price of a reservation in the reenio system doesn't have to be just a single fixed number – the system provides tools to price your offering intelligently and precisely, in line with how your business works. You can set different pricing categories, for example admission for an individual or a family, which are then automatically factored into the reservation based on the customer's choice.

On top of that, you can tailor the price to the specific circumstances of the reservation – for example, giving a discount to customers who book well in advance, or setting a different rate for a longer stay or rental. Thanks to a custom booking form, you can then easily offer add-on services or a discount for a selected group of customers.

For marketing campaigns and controlled access to selected events, discount coupons are useful, with their own settings for validity and number of uses – whether it's a one-off promotion, a loyalty discount, or a closed group for whom you only open up an event when the corresponding code is used.

The power of this pricing approach lies in the fact that all these tools can be combined and used together as needed. The final price always reflects exactly how you want to offer your services and what the customer themselves chooses.

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.

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.

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.

Deliver important information straight to a customer's phone, even in cases where an e-mail message isn't enough for various reasons – reservation confirmation, a reminder before an event, or instructions on how to use the service.

SMS messages are available in the system both as system notifications and as custom messages with any text you like. These can then be automatic, sent in connection with some event, or sent manually directly from a specific customer's detail page, or in bulk to multiple customers at once. SMS messages are limited by their length and what can be communicated, but even so play an important role in keeping customers informed.

An interesting option is using SMS messages for further functionality. This includes verifying a customer's phone number during registration or when creating a new reservation, or as a technical communication channel – for controlling a device using a predefined SMS text, e.g. turning on the sauna heater before the start of a reservation.

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.

Let customers pay for their reservation or tickets online right away, before the service is provided – faster, more convenient, and with the certainty that the reservation will be paid, and therefore used.

The reenio system allows you to require prepayment as part of the booking process, so a customer's reservation only becomes valid once paid. You decide yourself whether online payment is mandatory, or whether you leave it up to the customer to pay on site. With mandatory payment, you can set a deadline by which a new reservation must be paid, otherwise it is automatically cancelled and the slot is released for another customer.

For online payments you can choose from several supported payment gateways. The reservation system then handles the technical connection and communication with the chosen gateway, but all business and formal matters are handled directly with the payment gateway provider – you keep the money you receive under your own control, in your own merchant account.

• GoPay

  An online payment gateway offering a wide range of payment methods, from card payments to fast bank transfers, Apple Pay, or Google Pay.

• Comgate

  Another Czech payment gateway that also operates in other European countries. Its payment methods vary and cover common needs.

• Stripe

  A global payment gateway that is becoming increasingly popular. It offers fast integration and approval, so you can start accepting payments within minutes.

• Bank transfer

  A special type of payment method where the reservation system itself can generate a QR code for payment and then automatically verify and match received payments.

After a successful payment, the system automatically marks the reservation as paid and generates and sends the customer a payment document. The reenio system offers a wide range of options and features for working with payments, including exports, refunds, and more. However, it should be noted that reenio itself is not an accounting system.

Running events that are only accessible online? Sell entry to webinars, online courses, or other events that take place purely online, while keeping control over who actually gets access to that content.

An add-on for the Full single event or Coupon event type lets you effectively create a reservation or sell a ticket for an event that doesn't take place physically but rather as an online broadcast or communication – typically a webinar, online workshop, concert, theatre performance, meeting, or online class.

Supported platforms include Youtube, Zoom, or Vimeo, which can be integrated through the reservation page into a secure player. This content protection works so that a customer accesses the online event via their reservation code. The reservation code can be used for the whole duration of the event, and an extension can optionally be set. Importantly, the online content is only accessible with the corresponding restriction and through integration into the reservation page, not on the online platform itself.
