One guest list, and messages that go out on their own

See how it works

Volio keeps everyone who ordered, booked or left a review at your venue in one list, for restaurants, bars, cafés and beach clubs. Messages sit on a month calendar, and the ones you automate go out by themselves: a welcome, a thank you, a birthday, a name day, a we-miss-you.

Your regulars, on a list you can write to

How the guest list works

A guest is on the list because they ordered, booked or left a review at your venue.

Everyone in one list

A guest who ordered from the table, booked a table or left a review lands in the same list, with their visits, their last visit and what they spend.

The demo venue's guest list: a regular with 11 visits, here now, and a new guest from this month, each with what they spend

Messages on a calendar, some on their own

Every send sits on a month calendar, the ones you write and the automatic ones. Welcome, thank you, birthday, name day and we miss you go out by themselves once you switch them on, and name days show on the days they fall.

Messages in the demo venue's back office: an October calendar with name days on it, and the automatic sends in a list beside it

A guest's first month, as the list sees it

What used to be a name on a booking page and a face at the bar becomes someone you can thank.

  1. Friday

    First visit

    Three friends order from the table, and they're on your list.

  2. Saturday

    A welcome

    The welcome message goes out on its own. Nobody had to remember.

  3. Three weeks on

    Her birthday

    The birthday message goes out on the day. She books a table for six from your page.

  4. Two months on

    We miss you

    No visit for a while, and the we-miss-you message goes out with a code for her next one.

The same back office, other angles

Rewards in the demo venue's back office: a points card, a happy hour and message codes

Rewards

Points kept with an email, happy hours and codes, each with the sales it brought.

Bookings in the demo venue's back office: a party waiting for a table and the tables free for a walk-in

Bookings

Every guest who booked from your page is on the list, and tonight's bookings sit beside the walk-ins.

Settings for what guests see: appearance, languages, share and print, and the review link

Reviews

A guest who leaves a review after their visit is on the list with the rest.

Birthdays and name days

Everyone: the guest list with visits, last visit and spend, and an Export button

Export

The list exports from its own page when you need it elsewhere.

What the guest list isn't

  • Not a bought list

    Everyone on it ordered, booked or left a review at your venue.

  • Not a second job

    The list fills itself from orders, bookings and reviews, and an automation is switched on once.

Every plan starts with 30 days of Pro, free.
