playdesk for axe throwing venues

Made for group bookings

Axe throwing is mostly groups: birthdays, bachelor parties, work nights out. The booking is for a lane and an hour, but the bill also has drinks, snacks and maybe a coach on it. playdesk puts all of it on one bill and splits it however the group wants to pay.

Coach-led sessions and open lane time go on the same calendar, so a coach doesn't end up booked twice. Reports show which slots sell out first.

FAQ

Questions about playdesk for axe throwing venues

How much does playdesk cost for axe throwing venues?

$14 a month for each lane, with every feature included. A venue with 8 lanes pays $112 a month. There's no setup fee and no contract, and in some countries the price is lower.

Can a group split the bill?

Yes. Split it evenly, by item or by amount, so each person pays their own share.

Can customers book axe throwing lanes online?

Yes. Customers with an account can book axe throwing lanes themselves, and your front desk adds phone bookings and walk-ins to the same calendar. Everyone sees the same availability, and two people can't take the same slot.

Is session time billed automatically?

Yes. The timer starts with the session and bills the time actually played at that space's rate. Paused time isn't charged, and you can set a minimum charge. Nobody needs a stopwatch.

Does it include a point of sale?

Yes. Food, drinks, retail and add-ons go through the same POS and onto the same bill as the session. Kitchen orders show up in a live queue on the kitchen's screen.
