Own Your Bookings: The Commission-Free WordPress Reservation System from designbooth
Tired of losing valuable revenue and customer data to third-party booking platforms? designbooth is proud to launch a revolutionary new service: a self-contained, commission-free WordPress booking system that puts your business back in control.<br /> <br /> Forget the hefty fees from services like OpenTable or Treatwell. Our custom solution, built using the powerful and flexible Gravity Forms software for WordPress, transforms your existing website into a sophisticated, all-in-one reservation hub.
Commission-free WordPress booking system
Designbooth builds a WordPress reservation system that keeps every booking — and every customer detail — on your own site. No third-party commission. No shared client lists. Based in Hampshire, we deploy this for restaurants, pubs, salons, and service businesses across the UK.
Complete customer data ownership
When a customer books through our system, their name, contact details, and booking history are stored securely in your WordPress database — not a SaaS platform. That data powers email marketing, loyalty, and repeat bookings without export restrictions.
Key deliverables
- Gravity Forms booking engine: Custom resource management built on Gravity Forms — tables, time slots, staff, and party sizes.
- Staff admin views: Calendar, list, and agenda views for managing reservations from the WordPress dashboard.
- Approval workflows: Pending/approved/declined status for capacity control.
- Deposit and payment integration: Stripe or PayPal deposits to secure bookings.
- Zero commission: One-time setup — no per-booking fees, ever.
Industries we serve
