Glow bowling with its own prices and hours
Glow bowling booking means customers book glow bowling lanes online at the glow price, at the hours you have set for glow bowling.
Glow bowling is often the busiest and best paid time of the week. In Keilarata.fi it is part of the normal lane calendar, with its own price rules. You decide on which days and at which hours glow bowling runs, and the booking page charges the right price for each time slot.
Set glow prices by weekday and hour
A glow bowling price rule has its own days, hours and hourly price. Outside those hours the base price applies, so one evening can have normal bowling first and glow bowling later.
- Own glow price for each weekday and time window
- Special prices for holidays and events
- The price is calculated from your rules, nobody types it in by hand
Customers see glow slots in the calendar
On the customer booking page, each time slot shows its price, and you can mark glow slots with a glow tag. The customer knows what they are booking and what it costs before they pay.
- A glow tag on glow time slots, switched on per price rule
- The price shown next to each time slot
- The glow price applies by time, so the customer does not need to choose it
Glow bookings stand out in your calendar
In the admin lane calendar glow bowling bookings have their own colour, so staff see at a glance how the evening is filling up.
- Glow, normal and competition bookings in different colours
- Add phone bookings to the glow hours yourself
- Choose the glow colour yourself in the settings
Paid online or at the venue
Glow bowling bookings are paid like any other booking: online through Stripe, at the venue, or either, depending on what you offer.
- Card, Apple Pay and Google Pay through Stripe
- Payment at the venue if you allow it
- Extras such as shoes added to the same payment
Groups and parties on glow evenings
Glow bowling is often booked by groups, birthday parties and work teams. They can book several lanes at once and add extras to the same booking, so the whole evening is paid in one go.
- Several lanes in one booking
- Shoes, food, drinks or party packages as extras
- Discount codes for campaigns and partners
Glow bowling by phone or online
Glow evenings fill up fast. This is how the two ways of booking compare.
| Topic | By phone | Online with Keilarata.fi |
|---|---|---|
| Price | Staff tell the price for the time asked | The glow price is shown for each time slot |
| Busy evenings | Calls come in while staff serve customers | Customers book themselves, staff serve the hall |
| Payment | At the venue | Online when booking, or at the venue if you allow it |
| Lane situation | Checked by staff | Updates as soon as a booking is made |
