reservation system for
your business

Connect your reservation page with Google Analytics or the Facebook Pixel and track how successful your campaigns are, gaining important data. At the same time, you can use the system to communicate with customers in an automated and efficient way, retaining them, motivating them, or gathering feedback.

You can add tracking code for Google Analytics, the Facebook Pixel, or similar tools to your reservation page, and track visitor behaviour as well as conversions from advertising campaigns.

The reenio reservation system also offers a whole range of tools for staying in touch with customers at different stages of the customer lifecycle. For example, using custom messages, you can automatically send a satisfaction survey shortly after an event ends and gather feedback without having to reach out to customers manually. In the same way, a customer who hasn't made a booking for a while can be encouraged to return with a reminder or offer, or you can wish them a happy birthday or name day and add a gift coupon straight away. Thanks to tags, customers can also be automatically sorted according to which service they used, and you can work with them further in a targeted way as part of your own marketing activities.

If you offer services in regular time slots (60 minutes, 90 minutes, etc.), this is the ideal event type, offering a simple and clear booking process.

The Interval event type lets you define a time range within a single day and split it into smaller, regular chunks. On the reservation page, a customer chooses these specific time slots, which can also follow on from one another, extending their reservation according to the defined rules.

This event type is typically suitable for sports facilities and sports complexes, consulting and advisory services, wellness, or a sauna.

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.

Tailor the reservation system to your business – whether you run a sports facility, a beauty salon, a rental business, or organize educational courses, the system can flexibly respond to the various needs and ideas linked to your particular type of business. Of course, it's still a universal cloud system rather than a custom-built solution, so some very specific ideas about how it should work or look might not actually be achievable.

The system offers a wide range of settings that make it easier to tailor booking to your specific customers and business. The foundation of this flexibility is the different event types (Full single event, Intervals, Full sequence, Any time, Multi-day, Coupon, Seat reservation), from which you can choose the most suitable one – from one-off workshops, through hourly rentals of sports facilities, to multi-day stays or selling event tickets.

Building on this foundation is a whole range of further settings that let you fine-tune the process further: custom booking forms for collecting specific data, various types of prices and discounts, online payments and payment by credit, reservation approval, waiting lists, collision protection between resources, or automated communication using system and custom messages. Thanks to user roles, you can also involve your whole team with correctly set permissions, and connect the reservation system to other systems as needed via the API or webhooks.

So the system grows together with your business – from a simple setup with minimal configuration, all the way to a comprehensive solution using most of the available features at once.

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.

Don't lose customers just because an event is already fully booked – let them sign up for a waiting list and automatically notify them as soon as a place opens up for them because an earlier customer cancels their reservation.

The waiting list feature lets customers express interest in a reservation even when an event no longer has free capacity. A reservation doesn't get created for them at that point yet – the system simply records their interest, including their details. As soon as the corresponding capacity becomes available (e.g. another customer cancels their reservation), the system automatically picks a waiting-list candidate from the queue based on order and capacity and creates a standard reservation for them with everything that entails – sending a confirmation, a possible payment request, cancellation rules, and so on. If a candidate on the waiting list doesn't get a spot, the system no longer notifies them any further.

This feature is only available for the Full single event type and must first be enabled and configured for the specific event.

Offer customers a booking for an entire course or cycle of lessons at once – the event is always booked as a single unit, rather than day by day separately.

This event type is fairly specific and lets you define a set of events that are always booked together as a single unit. A typical example is a course taking place every Monday from 9 to 11 for 3 months – a customer doesn't book each Monday separately, but rather books the whole course at once, as an indivisible sequence.

A sequence can also be edited, by using recurrence for the event and then editing individual occurrences, which ensures that all events remain part of the defined sequence. So it's no problem to create a sequence with Monday sessions at 5pm and Wednesday sessions at 7pm.

A sequence is particularly suited to dance courses, swimming courses, educational courses, language classes, kids' clubs, and similar recurring activities.

Automate communication with customers exactly to your needs – from reminders, through satisfaction surveys, to marketing offers, in the form of e-mails or SMS messages. The possibilities of custom messages are, however, far broader. Custom messages can also be used to notify an external system or device, or to inform administrators or employees.

Custom messages allow you to set up sending of messages tied to a specific event in the reservation process and a corresponding moment in time. The event can be automatic (creation of a reservation, end of an event, etc.) or tied to a manual change of a reservation's status in the administration or mobile app.

• E-mail

  The basic type of custom message, where a text e-mail message with your own content is sent.

• SMS

  A popular message type which, although limited in size and format, offers greater delivery certainty.

• Webhook

  A technical solution for notifying an external system that some event has occurred. Typically used for various automations.

• Mobile app

  A quick way to send a notification directly into a specific reenio mobile app.

• Smartemailing

  If simple text content for an e-mail isn't enough, you can use templates and sending via the Smartemailing tool.

Unlike system notifications, which have a fixed structure and content, with custom messages you decide the content and purpose yourself – typically these are used for a thank-you or a request for feedback after an event ends, a reminder before an upcoming event, a marketing offer, booking instructions, birthday or name-day wishes (even with a gift coupon), or a reminder to a customer who hasn't booked for a while.

The content of custom messages can also contain so-called placeholder variables, which are replaced with the corresponding value when the message is actually sent, e.g. the customer's name or the reservation's start time. Custom messages are assigned to events via message groups, so there's no need to set up rules for every event separately, while still keeping flexibility for different situations and needs.

A special feature of certain message types and specific events is the ability to add dynamic elements to a custom message – a satisfaction survey or a generated coupon code. It's entirely up to you how you integrate these options into your marketing activities.

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.

The reenio system is under continuous, ongoing development, which brings new features, integrations with other tools and devices, and improvements to existing features and elements of the administration and the reservation page. Development follows both the needs of users and their businesses, as well as developments in the technology world – new technical solutions or web technologies are gradually incorporated into the system so that every user can work with them effectively.

Development also automatically responds to current formal and legislative requirements, for example in the area of personal data protection (GDPR) or obligations related to reporting illegal content or online withdrawal from a contract. Thanks to this, you can run the reservation system in compliance with current rules without having to track and address every legislative change yourself.

Thanks to the system's concept, which uses cloud technologies for its operation and works as SaaS (Software as a Service), it always holds true that new features or updates are available to all users. The availability of these features and changes is always automatic, and the user doesn't need to carry out any system update or installation.

You can find an overview of news and current changes on an ongoing basis in the documentation or in the system's administration.

Offer customers a reservation for a fixed time slot with a limited capacity – ideal wherever more than one person needs to be able to attend an event, but not more than you're able to serve.

With the Full single event type, a customer always books the whole event as set, i.e. a fixed time slot from – to, with no option to choose a custom time. This is typically an event with a higher capacity, taking place at a fixed time – suitable for sports events and lessons, seminars, lectures, concerts, exhibition openings, one-off courses, workshops, or tours.

For this type you can also enable a so-called waiting list, where a customer can still express interest in booking even after all available capacity has been used up. This event type also supports creating recurring reservations and supports online events.

Give customers the ability to choose a specific spot directly on a map of a hall, restaurant, or car park – whether for the entire event, or just a selected time period.

This event type lets you create a map of specific places and other elements, from which the customer chooses for themselves where they want to sit, stand, park a car, and so on. There are then two ways to book: either for the whole event at once (a classic ticket sale for an event with a specific seat), or for any time period, where the customer chooses a specific time from and to together with a place (e.g. booking a table in a restaurant or a parking spot). It's suitable for concerts, balls, theatres, cinemas, restaurants, room rentals, shared offices, or parking spaces.

A strong feature of this event type is also its pricing, where the price depends on the category of the place on the map, to which price variants or conditional prices can also be added. Combined with generating a separate reservation code for each booked place, a separate ticket is then always created for each place, labelled with its specific location on the map, so individual attendees can easily be checked in separately.
