What we're building, and in what order
Everything on this page is planned but not in playdesk yet. We don't put dates on it. The order is real, though, and it changes when enough venues ask for the same thing.
- Being built now
These close the gaps venues ask about most, and come before anything else.
Receipts
A receipt for any bill or share of a bill, with your tax numbers and payments on it. Print it on an 80mm receipt printer, or send it by email or WhatsApp.
Booking and payment messages
Confirmations, reminders and cancellations by WhatsApp and email, including when maintenance cancels a booking. You choose which ones go out.
Export any date range
Download your reports for any period as a PDF or Excel file.
- Next
The first things we build after launch, in this order.
Move a booking
Change a booking's time or space in one step, with the same double-booking checks as a new booking.
Holidays and special hours
Close for a day or open different hours on a date. Bookings and walk-ins follow them.
Late arrivals
Set a grace period. A booking nobody claims is released after it, and staff get a warning when play runs past the booked time.
QR ordering
Customers scan the code on their table, browse the menu, order onto their tab, follow the order and see their bill.
Memberships
Sell membership packages with prepaid credit, member rates and an expiry date.
- After that
Planned once the items above are out.
Session countdown
An expected end time on a session, a warning five minutes before it, and the countdown on the live board.
Public booking page
A booking link for your venue that you can share anywhere. Customers sign in with a one-time code at the end.
Loyalty points
Customers earn points on what they pay and spend them on a later bill.
Staff clock-in and rotas
Staff clock in and out against a rota, with hours and lateness reports linked to their cash shifts.
SMS
Text messages for the same bookings and payments as WhatsApp and email.
Card payments through a provider
A card terminal or online payment provider that confirms card payments by itself, which also makes paying online possible.
Stock tracking
Stock per item, taken off when an order is served, with deliveries, wastage and low-stock alerts.
Kitchen stations and printed tickets
Separate queues for the kitchen, the bar or the shisha station, each with its own printed tickets.
Discount limits
A maximum discount per role, with a manager PIN for anything above it, for refunds and voids too.
- Later
On the list, built as venues ask for them. Tell us if one of these matters to you.
Leagues and tournaments
Registration, fixtures on your spaces, standings and knockout brackets.
Recurring bookings
Repeat a booking every day or week until an end date.
Booking deposits
Take a deposit when someone books, keep it on a no-show and refund it on a timely cancellation.
Day passes
One price for all-day access to a type of space.
Coupons and vouchers
Single-use and multi-use codes with an expiry date and limits.
Cost price and margin
Cost of goods and gross margin for each item and category.
Suppliers and purchase orders
A supplier list, and purchase orders that turn into stock deliveries.
Menu photos
Photos on menu items, for QR ordering.
Player limits
