reservation system for
your business

Calendar synchronization lets you connect the reenio system with an external calendar. This is typically a connection with Google Calendar, and is set up simply by logging in with your Google account and granting access.

Reservations created in the reenio system will appear in your calendar, but the reverse doesn't happen – reservations aren't created from events in your Google Calendar (the booking process is complex enough that a calendar event alone isn't sufficient). In the other direction, i.e. from Google Calendar into the reenio system, synchronization is therefore only limited – events can be synchronized as time blocks, so that no new reservation can be created for that particular date and time.

Offer customers a classic bank transfer payment option too, for cases where you don't need instant confirmation – ideal for reservations made well in advance.

Bank transfer payment in the reenio system is especially useful where the deadline for mandatory payment of a reservation is three days or more, or where payment isn't a condition for the reservation to be created at all. The advantage of this approach is that everything happens purely within the reservation system and the bank, without needing an online payment gateway set up. Another advantage is lower costs for processing payments. The downside, on the other hand, is that checking, synchronizing, and the speed of payments is more complex.

The system provides the customer with the payment details (account number, amount, variable symbol – also in the form of a popular payment QR code) needed to send the payment, and based on the variable symbol, the payment can then be traced and matched to a specific reservation or, in the case of gift coupons, a purchase. Matching can be done manually directly in the administration, or automatically – you just need to set up your supported bank to send notifications of incoming payments to a unique e-mail address. As soon as such a notification arrives from the bank, the system matches the payment based on the variable symbol and marks the reservation as paid itself.

Bank transfer is usually also available as one of the methods within the online payment gateway, though in that case enabling it is more of a complication, since it combines completely different payment methods into a single solution. As with other payment methods, the system automatically issues and sends the customer the relevant accounting document the moment the payment is matched.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Run an arbitrarily varied range of services on a single reservation page – one-off events, recurring courses, space rentals, and ticket sales all at the same time? The reenio reservation system can cover even these complex business models.

The reenio reservation system is not limited to just a single type of offering – within one page, you can create any number of resources (places, services, employees) and assign each of them the type of event that best suits that particular offering. This means an hourly court rental via interval events, a monthly yoga course as a full sequence, a one-off seminar as a full single event, and the sale of punch cards or gift coupons, can all run side by side – all on one reservation page and in one administration.

Clarity for such a varied offering is provided by a navigation hub, which can be set up as a multi-step guide, walking the customer through it step by step (e.g. first choosing a service, then an employee or branch).

Last but not least, thanks to collision protection over time, the system also automatically makes sure the same resource (e.g. a specific employee or room) never ends up in two reservations at once, even when it's used across different event and resource types.

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.

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.
