From their phone to your front desk

A smoother visit starts before they arrive

Parents can make their plans without a phone call. Your team can work from the booking details, rather than piece them together from messages.

01

Parents choose a visit

Available dates, session times and ticket prices together in a booking flow that works on their phone.

02

You control the places

Set session capacity, ticket limits and required accompanying tickets. Full sessions cannot be booked.

03

Your team knows who is coming

Customer details, ticket counts and booking references are ready to find in your venue dashboard.

Behind every booking

Manage the day-to-day in one place

A booking form is only the start. Keep the schedule, places and practical changes in one venue workspace.

Multi-venue management

Move between every venue you manage from one responsive dashboard.

Sessions and calendars

Set up sessions, ticket requirements, recurring availability and one-off slots.

Capacity-aware bookings

Track attendee places, bookings and availability without relying on spreadsheets.

Bookings and arrivals

See who is coming, find customer bookings, add bookings for callers and reschedule visits from your dashboard.

Closures and disruption

Block venue-wide closure dates so unavailable sessions are not offered to parents.

Embeddable booking

Offer BookPlay booking from your own website with an optional responsive embed.

Getting set up

Your venue. Your sessions. Your way to book.

  1. Claim or add your venue

    Create a venue-owner account and verify your connection to your venue.

  2. Set up your booking operation

    Once booking access is approved, add your sessions, tickets, prices and availability.

  3. Go live when you are ready

    Share your booking page or embed it on your website. Keep managing everything from BookPlay.

Before you get started

Can parents book from our own website?

Yes. You can link to your BookPlay booking page or use the responsive booking embed on your existing website.

Can we take payments online?

BookPlay supports pay-on-arrival sessions and Stripe online payments when enabled for your venue. The demo shows the pay-on-arrival flow; it does not take a payment.

What does it cost?

Your venue listing is free. Booking access and fees are separate; contact us to discuss your setup before going live. The demo ticket prices are examples, not BookPlay fees.

Do we have to switch our bookings straight away?

No. You can keep your existing booking link and free listing. BookPlay-managed bookings require approved access and setup; creating an account does not switch them on.
