Apaxon Bookings Pro

Available now£59/year

Deposits, staff and more than one location.

The free diary takes bookings. Pro handles the parts that appear once you are busy — money up front against no-shows, availability that knows which member of staff is in, and a waiting list that fills a cancellation before you notice it.

What it does.

  • Deposits and prepayment

    Take a deposit on the bookings that need one — large parties, peak nights, first-time customers — and deduct it from the bill. A no-show that has paid £10 is a different problem from one that has not.

  • Staff and resources

    Availability per person, per room, per table. A salon with three stylists is not one diary with three times the capacity, and treating it as one double-books somebody.

  • Multiple locations

    One installation, several sites, each with its own hours and capacity — and a customer record that follows the person between them.

  • Waiting list that fills itself

    A cancellation offers the slot to the next person automatically. The alternative is a table that stays empty because nobody had time to ring round.

When to buy it

When no-shows start costing more than the plugin.

The free diary is enough for a business taking a handful of bookings a week. Pro pays for itself the first time a deposit stops a table of eight not turning up on a Saturday — which is the honest test for whether you need it yet.

  • Free Bookings stays installed and keeps doing everything it did
  • Nothing is removed if the year lapses — deposits already taken are yours
  • One price a year, not a fee per cover

Questions

Do I need Apaxon Payments as well?

Only to take deposits. Staff, resources, locations and the waiting list all work without it.

What happens if I stop renewing?

Everything keeps running exactly as it is. You stop receiving new versions and support until you renew; no booking, deposit or location is touched.

Can I run it on more than one site?

One site per licence. Staging and development copies of that site do not consume a second seat.
