What does booking software cost a venue like yours?
Put in your bookings and see a year of each system side by side, from the prices each company publishes on its own website. Where another system costs less than VenueBookr, it says so.
What is left out. Card processing fees, for everybody: they are between you and your payment provider (some systems require their own). Text messages too: VenueBookr's are 7p a text. VenueBookr does not currently charge VAT. Prices were read from each company's own website on 9 October 2026, and they change — check with each company before you decide.
