What's new — May 2025

This month’s updates focus on delivering smoother guest experiences and giving staff greater control:

  • 🏷️ Automatic discounts in checkout
    Add discount codes directly to your checkout URL — no typing required! Discounts apply automatically when guests meet the criteria, helping boost conversions and reduce support requests.
  • 📸 Membership verification at POS
    We’re gradually rolling out photo-based membership verification at check-in, making the process faster, more secure, and easier for staff to manage.
  • 🎟️ Clearer ticket availability for group bookings
    For single-booking, multiple-ticket products (like game rooms), guests can now see the number of spots available per session (eg “10 left”) instead of the number of remaining resources (eg “1 left”). This gives guests a clearer picture of availability — especially when booking for groups.
  • 🇩🇪🇺🇸 Local compliance updates
    For our German customers, an updated Till closure report when closing tills from POS now supports Z-Bon reporting requirements, with added fields (eg business details, gross receipts by tax rate). For our US customers, CARL compliance settings ensure you’re meeting local requirements with ease.

👉 Check out how to get started with these updates - and discover more - in our Help Center!

What's new — January 2025

It’s a new year and we’re kicking it off in style with updates to make your POS operations run smoothly and quickly, make setting membership discounts for promotions and special events even easier and enhancements that will increase your checkout conversion rates.

  • It’s now easier than ever to get waivers sent and signed from POS! As you create a new booking in POS, you’ll be directed to request or assign a waiver to each ticket that requires one before processing payment.
  • We’ve added a new Per Member option for your membership discounts. You can set a total redemption limit per member for the lifetime of their membership, rather than relying on time-based limits. 
  • Reduce “clicks” and increase conversion rates with the newest overlay checkout enhancement. You can now send guests directly to a specific product, date and session time in the checkout (eg 1-hour jump pass on Monday 24 February at 2 pm).
  • We’ve enhanced online checkouts to redirect to the products list page if a homepage hasn’t been configured, leading to a better guest experience and better conversion rates.
