What is Table Chaining?

Wouldn't it be nice if your online booking platform could think a little bit more like a human? Well, maybe not too much like a human, we've all seen Terminator, but table chains are a good example of taking an online booking system and making it a little smarter.

Table Chains let you specify which tables can be pushed together in real life to form bigger tables. Then, if a booking comes in and an individual table won't fit the group, but a table chain will, they can still book! This leads to a significant reduction in underbooking for larger groups and more money in your pocket.

Why is Table Chaining useful?

  • You'll be able to take bookings beyond your maximum table size automatically

  • It takes just five minutes to set up chains for a medium sized venue, and you never have to do the setup again unless you want to add more or tweak them.

  • If you have a small venue where all the tables are close, you can use auto-table chains with just one click.

  • Easily view when a table chain has been used in your booking lists, and tweak and edit any chain made manually whenever you'd like.

  • Knowing the system can push your tables together reduces call ups and manual emails, saving time and money
