Facebook Integration completed- First Restaurant places Button on Facebook Page
We have successfully developed a way to place our 'Book Now' button on Facebook pages of restaurants. Thus we enable more than 900 million Facebook users to conveniently book their favourite restaurants directly on Facebook. Hence we create a completely new distribution channel for the restaurants that use Bookingrid and give them the opportunity to sell their reservations through their Facebook pages without any additional effort.

Customers say "Yes" to deposits for restaurant bookings
According to a recent poll 82.8 % of restaurants customers were in favour of a deposit when taking bookings.
No-shows are costing some Hunter restaurant owners hundreds of dollars a night in wages and wasted produce as diners make bookings, sometimes for large groups, fail to turn up, or arrive with half the number of people they had booked for.
Restaurateurs who spoke to the Newcastle Herald said ‘‘no shows’’ were an expensive and regular occurrence which was embarrassing for operators and could cost at least one wage for the night.
In a business that runs on tight profit margins, a couple of parties failing to show can wipe out a night’s takings and result in produce, prepped for a fine dining experience, dumped in the garbage with the evening’s scraps.
In response restaurants started to look for ways to deal with no shows. But the solution is already there. It's simply called Bookingrid. To find out why read about what Bookingrid offers.
