Many booking systems charge a per-cover fee on every diner you seat, or a flat monthly subscription, or both. Enter your numbers below to see what your current provider costs you each year, then compare it with a commission-free booking system that never takes a cut of your covers.

Competitor figures are editable estimates based on publicly listed pricing as of July 2026 — check current pricing with each provider. Where a provider charges a per-cover network fee, only some of your covers may attract that fee in practice, so adjust the figures to match your own contract.

💡 Why commission-free matters

  • ✨ A per-cover fee scales with your success. The busier you get, the more you pay. A flat commission-free plan does not.
  • 📊 Read our honest comparison of the providers that claim to be commission-free and where the extra costs hide. See the breakdown.
  • 🎯 Deposits and card capture are included with BookingNinja, so you are not paying an add-on fee to protect against no-shows.
