Calculator
Per-cover commission vs €0
A booking platform that charges per cover invoices you every time you fill the room. We charge a monthly fee and €0 per booking. Enter your covers and see what the gap is over a year.
Only the ones arriving through the platform — not phone bookings or walk-ins.
The figure in your contract or last invoice: platforms rarely publish it.

per month
Bouzon Digital bookings
€9.99
module of the web plan · €0 per booking
Difference in your favour
€630.01
€7,560.12 per year
Counting the whole web plan (website + bookings) — €59.98 per month: the difference is still €580.02 per month · €6,960.24 per year.
Bouzon Digital bookings is a module of the web plan: +€9.99/month on top of the €49.99/month base, so €59.98/month with the website included. Either way we take nothing per booking and your diners data is yours. If you take a deposit, the payment gateway charges its own fee (Stripe, around 1.5% + €0.25 per charge) — that goes to the gateway, not to us.

What restaurants ask us most
How much does the Bouzon Digital booking system cost?
The booking system is a module of the Bouzon Digital web plan: it adds €9.99/month to the €49.99/month base plan — €59.98/month total — no lock-in, or it ships included in the Premium one-off purchase (€999, website + bookings + shop). Zero booking commission: you only pay the standard Stripe fees if you enable deposits.
How does it compare to TheFork, CoverManager or OpenTable?
TheFork charges a per-cover commission and keeps the customer relationship inside its marketplace. OpenTable charges a subscription plus a per-cover fee. CoverManager runs on a monthly subscription. Bouzon Digital charges zero per-booking commission and never sends your guests to a third-party marketplace — bookings happen on your own website.
Who owns the customer data from each booking?
You do. Reservations land in an isolated tenant on EU servers managed by Bouzon Digital, exportable at any time. If a guest replies to the confirmation, the reply comes straight to you, and the data is never shared with third-party marketplaces (TheFork, CoverManager).
Can I charge a deposit or guarantee per booking?
Yes. It is optional, charged per guest or per booking, and configurable by day of the week. The charge is processed via Stripe Connect: the money lands directly in your Stripe account with daily payouts. Bouzon Digital never holds the funds.
Does it work on any website or only on Bouzon Digital sites?
It is a module of the Bouzon Digital web plan — it is integrated natively into the website we design for you, with your colours, typography and shifts set up from day one. It is not sold as a standalone widget for third-party sites.
How long does it take to go live?
Activation after web plan sign-up. We configure your tables, shifts and opening hours, connect your Stripe Connect account (if you enable deposits), set your inbox as the reply-to address of the emails and run a short training call before opening reservations to the public.
Can I limit large groups, set a cancellation policy and charge only part of the cost as a deposit?
Yes, you set it from the panel. Maximum party size for online booking: you choose it (up to 40 guests); above that maximum the website offers no slot, and from the panel you can enter by hand the group that phones you. Minimum and maximum notice for booking. Cancellation window: if the guest cancels earlier than the window you set (from 0 to 72 hours), the deposit is refunded; if they cancel later, it is not. The deposit can be a fixed amount or a percentage of a reference amount (for example 50% of the set menu, or the full amount), per guest or per booking, and different for each day of the week. Each shift has its own hours, the interval between start times, how long a party occupies the table, the buffer before it can be booked again and, if you want, a cap on simultaneous guests.

Before you decide
What to check before you sign up
- What if the internet goes down? The POS keeps opening tables, sending orders to the kitchen, taking payment and closing the till without a connection. Offline there is no fiscal receipt with its QR (it prints on reconnect) and no Stripe QR payments. Full table of what works and what does not.
- Is your data yours? Yes: you export it from the panel as a ZIP with one CSV per table, with no lock-in. Nightly backup and servers in the EU (Nuremberg, Germany).
- Verifactu responsible declaration The Bouzon Digital POS is Verifactu-certified; the responsible declaration is signed and published. Your only step is uploading your FNMT certificate.
- What about email on your own domain? Professional email on your own domain ([email protected]), with SPF, DKIM and DMARC set up, that you read and answer inside the same panel. +€9.99/month with the Website or the POS, no setup fee.
- Product updates What has been added recently, how often the software ships, and the maintenance and continuity policy.
24/7 support on WhatsApp, every day of the year, for anything that stops the venue trading — under 5 minutes to respond if the POS fails mid-service. How support works
