What's happening?

Our waiver reminder email for party package bookings is now available. In our beta, we reduced the number of waivers signed on the day by approximately 24%!

Prompt party booking holders to get their guests' waivers signed before the event and significantly reduce day-of waiver signings, freeing up time for upselling and ensuring a smooth party start. ✨ 

Why is it important?

• More guests will show up with a waiver already signed, resulting in less chaos and last-minute stress. 🎈
• Party booking holders can easily see which guests haven't signed waivers yet and send them the booking's unique waiver link for easy follow-ups. 😊

How do I enable it?

1. From Venue Manager, go to Products > All products.
2. Select the party package product that you want to enable it for.
3. Scroll to Additional options.
4. Select Waiver reminder and set the desired time in days to remind guests prior to the booking (we recommend 7 days)

This feature is available on all plans, with email template customization for Pro plans and above.

Experience less stress and more fun with our new waiver reminder email for party package bookings! 🚀

Stored payment methods is now live for all ROLLER Payments customers! 

Missed collecting a payment during peak times? You can now follow up with guests later to confirm and process payments seamlessly for bookings made online. 

Parents managing young children after a busy party? Simply ask, “Would you like me to charge the card on file?”  

✨ Our beta customers have collected on average $3,000 per month by charging a previously used card.

Here’s how it works: When a guest books online, say for a party and pays a deposit online, we securely save their payment method. On the event day, extra charges and outstanding amounts can be easily charged from the booking to the saved card, avoiding a physical checkout.

You’ll be able to:

• Settle outstanding balances without guests waiting in line.
• Focus on delivering exceptional service.
• Provide an easy exit, especially for parents with young children.
• Ensure the total amounts for bookings are paid for, minimizing lost revenue.

Facilitate a smoother, more efficient payment process, improving both operational efficiency and the guest experience.
