All restaurant software features in one system

The features that fill tables and keep the guest.

Goboblo puts all restaurant software features in one restaurant system: reservations, loyalty, your website, a guest database, a QR menu, gift cards, event booking and Goboblo AI — and they all share one guest profile. Reservations are free up to 25 a month per location, and sports bars get every game in the Gameday plan. Every feature is described below, each with a link to its own page.

  • Free up to 25 reservations/mo — no card
  • 0% commission on your own reservations
  • One guest profile for everything

Reservations

Fill tables

Goboblo takes reservations around the clock in your restaurant reservation software. Guests reserve in your own restaurant reservation widget or through your Google Business Profile, and they pick their own table too if you switch that on. The restaurant waitlist offers a late-canceled time to the next party, if you switch on automatic offers. Reminders go out by email.

Loyalty

Bring guests back

Goboblo brings guests back with restaurant loyalty program software on the same guest profile as the reservation. Guests collect stamps on a digital stamp card for restaurants on their phone with no app — your team stamps it at the visit. Every reservation, stamp and allergy is saved in restaurant CRM software you own, so the whole history is there when the party walks in. The win-back email and the birthday email go out automatically to guests who opted in, once you switch them on.

Website

Website and visibility

Goboblo builds your free restaurant website from the menu, hours and photos you already added — free on an address with us, your own domain included in the Website plan. The QR menu for restaurants shows the same menu on the guest's phone with no app; payment at the table stays in your POS. More restaurant reviews from happy guests make you easier to find on Google.

On the floor

Run the night

Your team sees the whole floor on a live floor plan in restaurant table management software. Floor plan, list and timeline show the same night on a desktop, tablet or iPad at the host stand. Every user has a role on the account: owner, admin or staff. Staff see only the locations you pick for them when you run several locations in one account.

Sports bars

Sports bars

Gameday · $99/mo per location plus sales tax

Sports bars get game day reservations: the guest reserves the game, not just the table, and Goboblo seats the party at a table with a view of the right screen. It comes in the Gameday plan, $99 a month per location — the whole game day flow is under sports bar reservation system for game day.

Goboblo AI

Goboblo AI

Goboblo AI is a restaurant AI assistant: it creates, changes and cancels reservations when your team types one sentence, and it shows VIP guests and allergies from the guest profile. It is a separate add-on, bought per location.

  • 40 questions a day
  • 10 questions to try for free, no plan needed
  • $9 a month per location plus sales tax, first month free

Watch the guest profile build — event by event

This is the page's biggest claim, so you get to test it: every feature writes to the same guest profile. Click the events in order and watch the guest history panel — the same panel the host opens on the floor — fill up.

  1. A reservation in the widget creates the guest profile, allergy note included.
  2. The prepaid experience lands on the same profile.
  3. Your team saves the allergy; it shows on every future reservation.
  4. Half a year later, one tap on the name shows the history.

The panel is a copy of the Guest history view in Goboblo — it opens with one tap on the guest's name on the floor plan and in the list. The guest's note travels with the reservation; the allergy on the profile is saved by your team.

FAQ

Questions restaurant owners ask about the features

What features does Goboblo include?

Goboblo includes reservations with a floor plan, waitlist and no-show protection, loyalty with a digital stamp card and membership, a website, a guest database with guest profiles, a QR menu, gift cards, event booking and Goboblo AI. Reservations, loyalty, the website and Goboblo AI are separate plans; the guest database, QR menu, gift cards and event booking come with no monthly fee. Reservations are free up to 25 a month, and every plan and fee is listed under pricing.

Do the features write to one guest profile?

Yes. Every reservation, stamp, allergy and note lands on one guest profile that follows the guest between visits, in a guest database you own. Gift cards are the exception today: a card is tied to its code and the buyer's email, not to a guest profile.

Does Goboblo take commission on the features?

No. Goboblo takes 0% commission on your own reservations and charges no per-cover fee. A fee of 0.5% applies only to payments you collect through Goboblo — gift cards, event seats and prepayments — and no-show protection has no fee from Goboblo.

Do the features work on an iPad and on mobile?

Yes. Goboblo runs in the browser on an iPad, tablet, computer or phone, with nothing to install. Your team sees the same floor on every device at the same time, and guests reserve, collect stamps and read the QR menu on their phone with no app.

Which features are not built yet?

An AI phone host, Apple and Google Wallet passes and campaign emails to a group you choose are being built. Pay at the table is one we deliberately do not build: a purchase the guest makes on their phone while sitting in your restaurant belongs in your POS, not in Goboblo. Goboblo shows the menu and takes payment before the visit — reservations, event seats, gift cards and Order & pickup.

Are games included in the reservation plan?

No. The unlimited reservation plan does not include the games. Games and TV screens are in Gameday, which includes unlimited reservations. The free tier, up to 25 reservations a month, includes the games so you can try everything.
