How credits actually work
A guest can only send a useful, conditional offer. The recipient must claim it with a real booking, and the owner dashboard counts revenue only after the table is attributed.

Trust Layer

Built to become real software, not just a slick demo.

The live demo stays simple. The production roadmap focuses on the trust builders owners will actually ask about: integrations, fraud, attribution, and verified results.

First real integration

Start with Toast or OpenTable

Pilot restaurants connect one reservation or POS system first. Resy stays on the partner roadmap until access is confirmed.

Fraud-safe credits

Single-use codes and audit trail

Production credits use verified claim codes, rate limits, self-gifting checks, and logs for every send, claim, and redemption.

Attribution integrity

Server-side booking match

Bookings are matched against reservation IDs and confirmation data before revenue is counted in owner reports.

Honest positioning

Rule-based now, adaptive later

The demo shows a Smart Incentive Engine. Adaptive optimization comes after enough live restaurant data exists.

Pilot Proof Plan

01

Connect one system

Toast or OpenTable first, with a simple onboarding checklist.

02

Run one controlled pilot

Use single-use codes and verified booking matches before counting revenue.

03

Publish verified results

Turn anonymized pilot data into the first owner-facing case study.

Real-world implementation

Make setup feel boring, clear, and safe.

Owners do not need a technical lecture. They need to know where it lives, how it connects, how abuse is controlled, and when they see proof.

30-day pilot timeline

Day 1

Pick one venue and one slow-period offer.

Week 1

Connect reservation/POS data and test claim codes.

Week 2

Launch the QR/post-visit flow to real guests.

Day 30

Review attributed tables, incentive cost, and net revenue.

One integration first

Verified email flow

Minimal data capture

Known objections, answered early.

Where does the guest form live?+

On a QR code, receipt link, or post-visit email. The demo shows the QR/site version because it is easiest for owners to understand in a meeting.

How do redemptions avoid abuse?+

Production credits use single-use codes, rate limits, booking confirmation matching, and an audit trail for every send, claim, and redemption.

How does email deliverability work?+

The restaurant sends from a verified domain, the recipient gets one clean claim email, and reminders stay optional so the gift does not feel pushy.

What data is needed?+

Only the minimum needed for attribution: sender email, recipient email, claim code, reservation confirmation, party size, time, and revenue estimate.

How it works

Built for the way restaurants actually grow: trusted tables.

01

A guest treats someone they trust

The restaurant turns a happy guest into a warm introduction, not another cold ad impression.

02

The recipient claims a real reservation credit

The gift feels personal, timely, and useful, so the recipient is motivated to bring a table.

03

The owner sees attributed revenue

Every credit, claim, booking, party size, and revenue estimate rolls into the live dashboard.

Proof layer

Show owners what verified proof will look like.

These are demo proof cards, designed to be replaced with verified pilot data once the first restaurants are live.

Live trust signal

Demo venues modeled $18k+ in attributed revenue this month.

OpenTable

Connect one venue account, map reservation IDs, test one claim code, then launch a controlled pilot.

Resy

Connect one venue account, map reservation IDs, test one claim code, then launch a controlled pilot.

Toast

Connect one venue account, map reservation IDs, test one claim code, then launch a controlled pilot.

Square

Connect one venue account, map reservation IDs, test one claim code, then launch a controlled pilot.

Demo format

44-seat neighborhood Italian

18 modeled group tables

The pilot page finally makes the value obvious before pricing.

Demo format

Upscale casual bar program

$8 average incentive cost

The offer protects drink margin instead of discounting the check.

Demo format

Small multi-location operator

Single-use codes + audit trail

Attribution and abuse controls are visible from day one.

Replace modeled claims with verified pilots.

The sales page should stay honest until real venue data exists. This structure makes the swap easy.

Make risk controls visible before the ask.

Single-use codes, server-side matching, and redemption logs turn the demo from clever to credible.

ROI calculator

Put your own numbers in before pricing.

This is a demo model, not a guarantee. It shows whether the pilot math feels rational before an owner sees the monthly price.

Projected ROI

10.9x

Pilot framing: $299/mo is often less than a single low-signal ad campaign. The difference is attribution: every claimed table has a visible cost and revenue line.

Pricing

Less than one ignored campaign. Start with a pilot.

Keep the entry price low, tie upside to attributed revenue, and show what the owner gets in the first 30 days.
