Six things that bleed your reservations

You shouldn't pay €7 per cover to take a phone call.

Every restaurant pays the reservations tax. Every full table is one less margin. The platform makes it stop — every booking, every channel, every shift.

Per-cover fees

TheFork takes €2-7. OpenTable €1.25. Forever.

On a 100-cover Friday, that's €200-€700 vanishing. Every. Single. Friday. Quivi includes the whole reservations stack at zero per-cover fees. Forever.

Included on every plan
Three calendars

Phone bookings here. TheFork there. Google somewhere.

One restaurant, three reservation systems, one inevitable double-booking on the busy night. Quivi consolidates Website, WhatsApp, Google, POS, and phone into one calendar.

One calendar · all sources
No-show invisibility

Half your no-shows go untracked.

A 'Confirmed' booking that never arrives stays 'Confirmed' forever. We auto-detect 30–60 minutes after the slot, mark NoShow, and (optionally) charge the cancellation fee on card-on-file. The pattern shows up in reporting.

Auto-NoShow · Hangfire
Dumb CRM

The diner who came back six times is a stranger.

Index by phone — the most reliable identifier in EU bookings. Five visits, allergens, dietary, last spend, VIP tag — surfaced the moment the booking opens.

CRM by phone · GDPR-clean
Premium seats

Sea-view? Chef's table? You sell those by phone.

Channel-level surcharge pricing. Photos per table. Time-of-day pricing (sea-view costs more at sunset). Deposit captured at booking. The premium seat is a product, not a phone call.

Premium-seat selling
Pre-orders

Twelve-person party wants the menu? You print emails.

Pre-orders attached to bookings. Items send to KDS at a configurable lead time. The kitchen plates a 12-cover set menu without surprises.

Pre-orders · KDS lead-time

Four ways in. One calendar.

Every channel. One source of truth.

Bookings arrive from your website, from WhatsApp, from Google Search, from the POS at the counter, from a phone call. They land on one calendar. They settle on one card-on-file. They notify on one template.

    Inbound from Maps extra steps

    When a diner searches 'restaurants near me', the Reserve-a-table button shows. Google calls our API; the booking lands on the same calendar. Daily feeds, real-time availability.

  • POS + phone
    1 tap
    Always available walk-in

    Cashier opens the bookings drawer, picks shift + party size + table. Walk-ins are one tap. Phone bookings keep the legacy flow. Same calendar.

All bookings flow through one Backoffice with audit trail (created, modified, confirmed, cancelled — with source attribution and staff/system identity).

Premium seats are a product

Sell the sea-view. At a sea-view price.

Every channel can carry a surcharge. Time-of-day pricing — the sea-view at sunset is not the same product as the sea-view at noon. Photos make the upcharge make sense. The deposit IS the surcharge — captured at booking, captured for real.

  • Per-channel surcharge — different prices for different seats.
  • Time-of-day pricing — the sea-view at sunset costs more than at noon.
  • Photo per table — the marketing pitch is literally a picture.
  • Paybyrd tokenization at booking — card-on-file or full pre-payment.
  • Cancellation policy per merchant — free up to N hours, then % of total.

WhatsApp · AI agent

Bookings in natural language.

Connect your WhatsApp Business number. Quivi's AI agent handles the conversation — party size, date, time, name, dietary, allergens, deposits. It tool-calls the booking API. The conversation persists per phone number, so the regular doesn't have to repeat themselves.
