The problem
A no show is an empty table you could have sold twice
On a busy night, a party of six that never shows up is a serious loss. You turned away other guests to hold that table, and there is no way to recover the revenue.
HoldTabl confirms reservations with a small refundable deposit that is released when the guest arrives, so commitment goes up, no shows fall, and real guests are barely inconvenienced.
