Booking software forindoor golf.

Customers book straight from your venue page. No phone calls. They pick a slot, pay, and they're in. The booking page is yours, branded to your venue, available round the clock.

• ✓Slot picker with live availability
• ✓Magic-link booking management for customers
• ✓Automated confirmation and reminder emails
• ✓Works for golf sims, driving range bays, dart boards, pool tables, putting greens and lesson slots, or anything else you rent by the hour

Point a subdomain of your own domain at us and that becomes your booking page. Your branding, your web address. We show you the one DNS record to add at your registrar and sort the security certificate ourselves, so it is usually live within minutes.

• ✓Your own web address, not ours
• ✓One DNS record to add. We handle the certificate.
• ✓Your old bookmybays.com link keeps working, so printed QR codes are fine
• ✓Search engines are told your domain is the canonical one
• ✓Swap it or remove it whenever you like

Sketch your floor in the dashboard: bays, VIP rooms, walkways, reception, the bar. The booking page shows the same map, with live availability and pricing on each bay. Customers see the room they're walking into.

• ✓Drag-and-drop layout editor
• ✓Bays, VIP rooms, walkways and front-of-house tiles
• ✓Live availability and prices per bay
• ✓Curved rows, multiple levels, outdoor zones
• ✓Optional. Skip the map and customers get a clean list view

A small Windows app on the sim PC. Pair it to a bay once and it holds a lock screen over the machine, clearing it at booking start and putting it back when the session ends. It never touches TrackMan, Foresight, GSPro, Uneekor or whatever else you run, so any Windows sim is fine. See exactly how the sim access control works.

• ✓Lock screen clears at booking start, returns at the end
• ✓Live status: online, in session, or offline
• ✓Remote restart, close, and shutdown commands
• ✓Works with any Windows-based simulator software

Turn regulars into members. Design monthly subscriptions, credit bundles or season passes in the dashboard. Stripe handles the recurring billing and customers manage their own plans.

• ✓Stripe billing built in for subs and one-time purchases
• ✓Tempt new members in with a discounted first month, applied automatically
• ✓Day-of-week and time-of-day plan restrictions
• ✓Customer self-service: buy, pause, resume
• ✓Live credit tracking with configurable rollover caps
• ✓1% fee on membership payments. Bookings stay fee-free.

Run ticketed events from your own booking page. Build a league, a tournament, a Friday-night social or a coaching block, add the dates it runs on and set a price. One ticket covers the whole series. Customers pick an event, choose how many tickets and pay; on the night you open Attendees for a live door list and check people in with a tap.

• ✓Leagues, tournaments, socials and classes, with one ticket covering every session
• ✓Capacity, per-customer limits and a sales window
• ✓Members-only events and cheaper member pricing
• ✓Reserve bays so an event can’t be double-booked
• ✓Live attendee list with one-tap check-in
• ✓1% fee on event ticket sales. Bookings stay fee-free.

Run lessons as smoothly as bay hire. Add your coaches with their own working hours and time off, and customers book a lesson that only shows when a coach is genuinely free. No double-booking, no back-and-forth. They pick a coach or leave it to “any available”, and we quietly sort the bay behind the scenes.

• ✓Coaches with their own working hours and time off
• ✓Lesson times only shown when a coach is free
• ✓Customers choose a coach, or let us pick the first available
• ✓Add the coach's fee to the price, or keep it internal
• ✓Coach shown on the booking and emailed when it's confirmed

Set up a party once, whether that is a Kids Party or a Corporate Away Day, and customers book it from its own tab on your booking page. They tell you the date and how many are coming, and we work out how many bays that needs and seat them in consecutive bays. One price, one payment, one confirmation.

• ✓Sell the package: photo, description and a what is included list
• ✓Customers never pick bays, they pick a package and a headcount
• ✓Party sizes that will not fit are greyed out before checkout
• ✓Charged once, so revenue and player counts are not multiplied by bay count
• ✓Add fixed extras every party gets, such as a function room or a bar area
• ✓Optional one party at a time, when a party needs your host or the party room

Sell gift cards on your booking page. Customers buy one in a couple of taps, pick a design and add a personal message, and it's delivered by email ready to spend on a booking at checkout. A neat earner for Christmas and birthdays. Money in now, played later.

• ✓Set your own gift card amounts, with optional bonus credit
• ✓Customers choose a design and add a personal message
• ✓Guest checkout, no account needed to buy one
• ✓Delivered by email to the buyer or straight to the recipient
• ✓Balance redeemed automatically at checkout

Card, Apple Pay and Google Pay out of the box. Booking money goes straight to your Stripe account, and we never touch it. Charge in your own currency, whether that is pounds, euros or dollars. Membership payments and event ticket sales carry a 1% fee on top of Stripe's rates. Nothing else does.

If a customer paid a deposit online and owes the rest on arrival, the booking carries an Outstanding badge with the amount, in the list, on today's arrivals and on the booking itself. Took the money at the desk? Hit Mark paid and the balance disappears.

• ✓Outstanding badge with the amount, everywhere the booking appears
• ✓Mark paid records cash, your own card machine, or a cleared invoice
• ✓Undo puts the balance back if you pressed it by mistake
• ✓We record who settled it and when
• ✓An Owed view lists every booking with money outstanding, however old
• ✓The booking, the dashboard and the customer confirmation always agree

Open a customer, go to the Credit tab, and add or remove a balance. Next time they book while signed in it comes off the price automatically, with nothing for them to type and nothing for you to look up. Ideal for a rained-off session or a projector on the blink, when you would rather refund as credit than cash.

• ✓Applies itself at checkout when the customer is signed in
• ✓Every movement on the record, with a note saying why
• ✓A Credit column on the customers list
• ✓Gift cards stay separate, so it is one or the other, never both
• ✓Balances can be imported when you move from another system

• ✓Morning off-peak and evening peak rates
• ✓Weekend and bank holiday uplift
• ✓Per-slot-type price overrides
• ✓Applies automatically at checkout

Codes live with your venue rather than being shared with every other business, so they appear instantly and your names are your own. Another venue using SUMMER25 is not your problem.

• ✓Percent-off or fixed-amount discounts
• ✓Expiry dates and per-code usage limits, editable after you create one
• ✓Live and retired codes on separate tabs
• ✓Archive a code and the name is free again, with a Reuse button
• ✓Restrict a code to named customers for an apology or a corporate rate
• ✓Group codes into campaigns, so a Christmas push and a radio ad stay apart

However many bays you run, they all sit side by side without scrolling sideways, and the day runs from your earliest opening time to your latest closing time rather than midnight to midnight. Need the out-of-hours view? Hit Full day.

• ✓Every bay visible at once, no sideways scrolling
• ✓Opening and closing times marked, shut hours shaded off
• ✓Colour-coded by status, with a key under the date
• ✓A note icon on anything with a note, so you open it before they arrive
• ✓Block several bays at once for maintenance or private hire

Know your numbers, every day. Pick any date range, or narrow it to particular hours and days. Export if you need to.

• ✓Revenue, bookings and average booking value, against the period before
• ✓What sells: session types, lengths, party sizes and checkout extras
• ✓Where bookings come from, and what each source is worth
• ✓Events, memberships and gift cards reported properly, not lumped together
• ✓True bay utilisation against your real opening hours, and the bays sitting idle
• ✓A week-by-hour heatmap of when you are busy, and when you are not

• ✓Where you lose business: drop-offs, no-shows and cancellations

The booking funnel tracks every step of your checkout, from how many customers viewed times to who picked a slot, entered their details, started paying and booked, so you can see which step is losing you money. It also counts the people who landed on a day you were fully booked: demand you never knew you turned away. Why customers abandon bookings.

Invite staff as managers. They get bookings, bays and customers. They don't get your billing or venue settings. Two roles, that's it.

• ✓Invite by email, revoke instantly
• ✓Managers: bookings, bays, customers
• ✓Owners only: billing and settings

Set your weekly hours, block out bank holidays or private events. The booking page updates automatically, so there are no double-bookings on days you're closed.

The booking engine doesn't care what the resource is. Venues use it for dart boards, pool tables, putting greens, escape rooms, lesson slots, function rooms. Each resource type has its own slot lengths, prices and hours. The Agent only kicks in for things that need locking. See every venue type BookMyBays supports.
