reservation system for
your business

Run your reservation system in compliance with current legislation without having to track every change in this area yourself – we continuously add features that make it easier to meet your obligations. Of course, in this respect the reservation system is just a tool; legislative requirements and processes must always be grounded in the reality of your business, including outside the online world.

For example, as part of GDPR, the reenio system lets you set up automatic deletion of personal data after a chosen period, or keeps track of customer requests to have their personal data deleted. You can also define your own consents that go beyond the defined legitimate interest, and use them as the basis for, for example, sending marketing communications only to customers who have given direct consent for that.

In response to ongoing changes in legislation and amendments to laws, new features have appeared in the reenio system to make it easier to meet the requirements of the so-called "button law", the requirement for easy withdrawal from a contract, or the ability to report illegal content on the reservation page.

Split the work in the administration across your whole team while staying in control of who can see, edit, and configure what – from full administrator access down to simply viewing reservations.

Any number of users, each under their own account, can have access to the reenio reservation system's administration. The system offers several user roles which, combined with specific permissions, clearly define what activities a given user is allowed to carry out.

• Administrator

  Full access to all data and settings.

• Employee

  A flexible role typically for users who manage reservations, events, and communicate with customers, and so on.

• Receptionist

  A role designed for quickly and efficiently working with existing reservations, creating them, and checking them in.

• Read-only

  A supplementary role intended purely for access to information, typically as a safe way to view data.

Thanks to user roles and permissions, working with reservations can be entrusted to other people without them needing access to the reservation page settings or other system parameters – an employee, for example, can process reservations but can't change the system's configuration or access the record of online payments. In specific cases, you can also set a restriction to a specific group of reservations based on a resource (e.g. only a particular branch or service).

Logging in can be secured with two-factor authentication, or password entry can be replaced with modern passkeys – verification by fingerprint, face recognition, or the device's own screen lock.

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.

You can connect reservations in the reenio system directly with supported smart locks and thus automatically control customer access.

Supported locks include Igloohome (offline operation is also possible thanks to algoPIN technology), Nuki, and the Unifi Access system from Ubiquiti. Each has its own specifics and is an ideal solution for different types of operation and scenarios.

• Igloohome

  Not just online operation via an internet gateway, but also a standard offline mode using the algoPIN algorithm.

• Nuki

  A well-known and proven smart lock brand with an online cloud solution.

• Unifi Access

  A professional solution for demanding operations, enabling full access control and integration with, for example, a camera system.

The whole process can work according to your specific settings, but typically, for example 1 hour before a paid reservation begins, a unique PIN code valid only for that customer and for the duration of their reservation is automatically generated and sent to them. With Igloohome there is an option where the lock doesn't need to be connected to the internet and the customer still receives a unique PIN code. However, an online connection offers greater flexibility and control over access.

To use this integration, you need to have the REENIO Connect feature active in the administration and the ability to use Custom messages, through which the automation itself takes place. The unique PIN code is then sent to the customer via e-mail or SMS.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Find out everything you need about customers right at the time of booking – extend the standard form with your own fields and tailor the form to a specific event and type of service.

Custom booking forms let you extend the standard reservation form (name, e-mail, phone) with any additional fields your business needs – from checkboxes, through selecting from options, entering text, all the way to uploading a file (e.g. a photo of the customer or a scanned confirmation). It's also possible to collect specialized data, where the system takes care of validating the correct format.

Individual custom fields can be required, or only shown based on the reserved capacity or a previously selected value. A special group is formed by form fields that affect the reservation price – which makes it easy to handle, for example, a surcharge for renting equipment, a discount for members, or a price adjustment for an above-standard scope of service.

A form can be assigned to a single event, or set globally so it automatically applies to all events on the reservation page. Working with custom forms is therefore very simple while also offering very broad possibilities for use.

Data entered in a custom booking form is saved as part of the specific reservation and can also be included in an export to Excel, and worked with further as needed.

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.

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.

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.
