A practical setup guide

Start with your service.
Build from there.

Prepare the essentials first. Then review your menu, website, and connections before you welcome guests through a new flow.

Book a walkthrough

A clear path through setup.

These steps take place in your restaurant's own dashboard after access is available. This public guide does not create a restaurant or change any settings.

  1. Step 01

    Make it yours

    Confirm your restaurant details, contact information, and timezone.

  2. Step 02

    Set up service

    Review booking hours and capacity, then add your tables and floor plan.

  3. Step 03

    Prepare your guest experience

    Add your menu, review your website, and connect payments if needed.

  4. Step 04

    Check, then open

    Test a booking with your team and review ordering and communication settings before launch.

Before you go live

Prepared, not rushed.

Have your service hours, table list, menu, and brand assets ready. Timing depends on your content and any account approvals.

  • Restaurant basics

    Confirm the restaurant name, contact details, and timezone. Use the restaurant dashboard to review your saved information.

  • Hours & booking rules

    Review opening and closing times, reservation intervals, party sizes, and capacity before sharing booking links.

  • Tables & floor plan

    Add your tables and seating capacities, then review the floor layout with the team who will use it.

  • Guest communications

    Review booking text, confirmation messages, and any deposit policy. Communication and payment settings need their own checks.

  • Menu, website & connections

    Prepare menu items, prices, photos, and website content. Verify payment setup before taking paid orders; review optional messaging and POS connections separately.

  • A real readiness check

    Review the guest booking flow with your team and confirm the features you plan to use. Finishing a setup checklist is not the same as publishing or enabling payments.
