Higher return rates

When you recognise who has visited before and remember what they liked, you give them a reason to return. True recognition builds lasting loyalty.

Personalised guest experience

Preferences, dietary requirements, and private notes appear on the booking before the guest arrives, ensuring the details are never lost.

Intelligent marketing

Campaigns actually work when the underlying data is structured and clean. Stop sending generic emails and start talking to the right people.

From first booking to regular - how your guest data grows

Automatic capture

Guest profiles that build themselves

Every booking creates or enriches a customer profile. Name, email, phone, and marketing consent are captured once and stored securely.

  • If the same person books with a different email, we match on phone and name to link the profiles automatically.

Preferences that surface when they matter

  • Guest context is available to your whole team, ensuring personal service even when the regular server is away.

CRM FAQs

Is this replacing our existing CRM?

Not necessarily. Many teams use TableSense as the clean source for hospitality data, then sync that data to their existing marketing tools. If you do not have a separate CRM, TableSense handles the essentials perfectly.

How are guests added to the system?

Everything happens automatically. Every booking creates or updates a customer profile with no manual data entry required. Your guests become known the moment they book.

What happens if a person books using a different email?

We match on phone number and name as well as email address. If we detect a match, the aliases are linked to the same profile to keep your guest list clean.

Can my staff capture notes quickly during service?

Yes. Notes and preferences are accessible directly from the booking. We have designed the system for fast capture rather than lengthy administration.

Will this help recognition across different shifts?

Absolutely. VIP status and preferences are available to the whole team. This allows even new staff members to deliver the personalised experience that turns guests into regulars.

How does VIP flagging work?

One click marks a guest as a VIP. A badge appears on their bookings and in the diary, and you can filter your list to see all VIPs at once.

How does marketing consent work?

Consent is captured during the booking process. Only guests who opt in are synced to your marketing tools to ensure you stay compliant.
