Flypay announces partnership with Bookatable
The partnership will allow Bookatable to integrate with Flyt.
Bookatable by Michelin announced its partnership with Flypay and its new Flyt platform; enabling restaurants to get a more accurate read on how quickly diners eat in a restaurant, so queues can be managed better.
Bookatable’s cloud technology helps restaurants manage their bookings and restaurant floor, and to successfully fill tables when needed, delivering more than 2.5 million diners each month to its restaurant customers from online reservations. The collaboration will unlock new opportunities for Bookatable to anticipate and meet the growing technology demands of today’s restaurant operators.
Through its initial integration with Flyt, Bookatable will be able to integrate with existing restaurant EPOS systems to give the restaurant end-to-end insight into each customer’s journey, from making a booking, waiting to be seated, to serving of food and paying the bill. The technology will enable front of house teams to monitor when tables will become available – therefore increasing table turns and maximising covers.
Nick Brown, Product Director, Bookatable said: “Flypay’s vision for Flyt is truly inspirational and provides a great vehicle for our future goals around openness and collaboration. Innovation is key to our business model, and we’re delighted to offer our partner restaurants a significant upgrade to our Electronic Reservation Book products through smart integrations such as Flyt. We plan to work hand-in-hand with Flypay to build new consumer-facing technology, which will continue to innovate and elevate the customer experience.”
Tom Weaver, CEO, Flypay commented: “Bookatable powers over 15,000 restaurants and drives millions of covers to its partner restaurants each month. We are of course excited to introduce the Flyt platform into their technology mix. Flyt unifies the technologies that operators already use to form different parts of the customer journey. By creating a platform which flows seamlessly for Bookatable, we have been able to ensure they are able to provide their restaurant partners with a greatly improved table management system.
“Looking to the future, we will work together to introduce integrated booking experiences for Bookatable, collaborating with our leading Flyt partners across payments, offers, loyalty, reviews and beyond.”
