Under an hour for most small bars. Sign up, drag your tables onto the floor plan, set your hours and policies. You're taking bookings the same shift. No onboarding call. No "implementation specialist." Just you, the floor, and the platform.

No. Customers book via your website, embedded widget, WhatsApp, or wallet pass, all browser-native. Your STAFF gets native iOS/Android/Windows apps, but only because the floor needs offline reliability.

Bookvelt handles checkout end-to-end with built-in card payments, Apple Pay, Google Pay and PayPal. If you already have a POS for in-location tabs (Toast, Square, Clover), keep it, Bookvelt only handles booking-time payments (deposits, no-show charges, ticketed events). No rip-and-replace.

You set a deposit per booking type, $10 for a regular table, $25 for a Saturday night, whatever works for your location. If a customer no-shows, the deposit is automatically charged. They get a notification. You get the funds. No awkward staff conversations, no chasing payment after the fact.

Yes. Each zone of your location can host its own event in parallel, a stand-up set on the main stage, a private trivia night in the back room, regular reservations at the bar. Every booking lands in the same queue. (For sports locations specifically, our sister product sportsbar.app handles the live-fixtures use case end-to-end.)

No. Customer contact details (email, phone) are never exposed to other locations or to the platform's other customers. Each location sees only its own diners. Privacy is built into the schema, not bolted on.

16 languages, 195 countries, every major currency. Customers see the booking flow in their own language; locations bill in their local currency with regional tax handling.
