Restaurant & café

Reven for restaurants — online gift vouchers and booking deposits

A restaurant gift voucher sold online is cash before the guest walks in. A deposit on a group booking is a guarantee the table won’t sit empty on a Saturday night.

Problem

What a restaurant loses every week

The same questions come back every week. Each one left unhandled is lost revenue.

01

Someone wants a birthday gift voucher. There’s no online option — they call, ask for a transfer, or give up.

02

A table for 8 on Friday night, no deposit. The guests don’t show. The table sits empty for two hours.

03

Valentine’s, Mother’s Day, Christmas — peak voucher season, handled by hand over phone and transfer.

04

Someone cancels a private dinner at 11am. You keep a waiting list on a slip at the host stand.

05

A gift voucher sold at the till — no record of when, or whether, it gets used.

Solution

Three tools for your restaurant

Three Reven modules you add to what you already have. Start with one.

How it works

From inquiry to prepayment or sign-up.

Three steps — Reven guides the client so the inquiry doesn’t vanish in messages.

Step 01

Client asks about a slot, voucher or gift

Through Instagram, phone, a form or at the desk — from any channel.

Reven doesn’t replace your booking system. It adds gift vouchers, deposits and a cancellation waitlist alongside it.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

If your question isn’t here — get in touch and we’ll answer specifically.

I use TheFork / my own form. Do I have to change systems?
No. Reven adds vouchers, deposits and a waitlist without touching your table-booking system.
Do restaurant gift vouchers sell online?
Yes — especially before holidays, Valentine’s and Mother’s Day. Guests buy in the evening, on their phone.
Won’t a deposit put guests off?
For group bookings and private events, guests expect it. You take it selectively.
How much does it cost?
Get in touch — we’ll work out the details on the first call.
