Explanation of Prepayments and events settings

 

Promotion

Name of event (this will be shown on the booking widget)

Description

This information will be sent with either the confirmation or pending for payment email. Here you can add your cancellation policy, explain how the prepayment will work, and include more information about the event.

Period

The date of the event or time period that you require a prepayment (for example, every Friday and Saturday).

For a one time event, for example, Valentine’s Day, you need to select a period from 2021-02-14 to 2021-02-14.

If you only require prepayment during dinner time, for example from 18:00, then at the bottom of the page you will find Valid by weekday, where you can select a day and time. For example, the event date 2021-02-14, which is a Friday, so you would need to click on Friday and set the time from 18:00.

If the event is repeated every Friday and Saturday: select the period from 2020-03-30 to 2020-12-31, then select Friday and Saturday, followed by the time

Min guests

This option is created to request prepayments for groups of more than X people.

To take prepayment for groups, please specify the minimum number of guests.

For example, if you wish to take prepayment for five or more guests, please add a number 5.

When you wish to take prepayment from all guests, please leave this gap empty

Offer type

Select the offer type. The prepayment function works for all offer types, the only difference is the image displayed.

  • Special offer – call bell
  • Discount available – X%
  • Special event – martini glass
  • Deposit needed – Euro symbol (this is a default symbol and cannot be changed)

Dining room

This feature will give an opportunity to charge different fees for different dining areas.

For example you can charge different fees for indoor and outdoor tables. If you want to take the same fee for all your restaurant tables – chose all areas for one fee.

Priority

Number 1 is the highest priority.
Only the offer with the highest priority is shown on the main booking widget page. If there is only one available offer, priority won’t affect it.

Information/ policy/ Menu file

Provide detailed information on your special offer, event, or limited-time menu with a customised PDF that is accessible in your widget. The PDF will be displayed on your widget near the offer selection and will open in a new tab.
