Included for every venue
Everything in the box
Each card is a whole area of the product, and every venue gets all twelve.
Sell online
Sell from your own website, or use the shop and landing page we host if you don't have one. Style the shop to match your brand and show prices with fees and tax included. Tickets, combos, merch, and gift cards go in one cart. Discount codes and upsell offers appear at checkout, and groups can join one booking from a shared link.
Bookings & scheduling
Set up rooms, lanes, and shared resources the way your venue uses them. Schedule Studio lays out a whole season by drag-and-drop, with weekday templates and bulk changes across any date range. Booking rules and dynamic pricing do the rest. Combos can span attractions, add-ons are redeemed at the scan, and moving a guest's whole order takes one action.
Payments & money
Every dollar goes through your own Stripe account and settles to you directly. Take cards, Apple Pay, and Google Pay online, at a counter with a card reader, or with Tap to Pay on a phone. Stripe Tax handles sales tax. You decide who pays the fees, and partial refunds and disputes are tracked next to each charge.
At the door
Check guests in with a browser camera, a phone, or a counter tablet. Multi-stop attractions can require each stop in order. Prepared tickets cover paper sales and giveaways, upgrades collect the difference at the door, and souvenir photos go out in your own frame. Tablets double as self-service kiosks and waiver stations, and a live ops board can go on the wall.
Merch & inventory
The gift shop, the concession stand, and the online store share one product catalog, with stock tracked across locations. Guests choose shipping or pickup and can request returns online. Behind the counter, you count shelves, receive purchase orders, and print barcode labels. Margin and sell-through reports show which products earn their shelf space.
Guests
Every guest gets one record with their bookings, signed waivers, survey answers, and the messages they've been sent. Email or text a guest from their booking and keep the replies in one thread. Regulars are flagged when they book again, and search still finds people when a name is misspelled.
Marketing & messaging
Confirmations, reminders, and follow-ups send themselves, and you can add timed emails of your own. Send campaigns from your own domain and set up drip emails that bring lapsed guests back. Texts go out from your own number, with carrier registration and quiet hours handled. Affiliate links, campaign analytics, and tracking pixels show what sells tickets.
Team & scheduling
Staff one event night and copy that schedule across the season. Coverage gaps show up before they turn into short shifts. Time off, swaps, the time clock, and payroll exports sit next to what the schedule costs. Your crew can check their shifts, claim open ones, and see pay stubs on their own.
Hiring
Seasonal hiring runs on your own public application page, with your questions for each role and a photo and signature collected up front. Candidates book their own interview times. You move them through a pipeline that ends in a one-click hire, and export a shortlist when the rest of the team wants a say.
Insights & reporting
A live dashboard covers tonight, and analytics compare any period with the one before or with last year. Luna, the built-in AI analyst, answers questions in plain English and writes your daily recap. Customer data is pseudonymised before the model sees it. Sales tax and sales-by-item reports export cleanly, with merch kept separate from tickets.
Partnerships
Team up with the venue down the road and sell a night out together. A joint package has one price and one receipt, books a real slot at both venues, and only offers times that work for both. The terms you agree on set how revenue splits, and each venue tracks its own bookings and earnings.
Access, security & scale
Custom roles decide what each person can see, and your bookkeeper gets a finance-only portal. New locations copy their settings from the first one. Admins sign in with two-factor, sensitive actions ask for confirmation, and the audit log records every change. The staff mobile app puts the agenda, the scanner, and the till in every pocket.
