7 Reasons Your Website Should Have An Online Booking Feature


7 Reasons Your Website Should Have An Online Booking Feature

A handful of businesses have moved their activities online as they now own websites. Thanks to the internet. Unfortunately, one thing that is yet to be integrated on these websites is online booking. The importance of online booking cannot be overstated. So, whatever services you are offering, Jumia Travel, the leading online travel agency discusses reasons why your website should have an online booking system.
Open 24 hours to receive reservations
Many customers who search the Internet outside of business hours will be able to book your service if there is an online booking system. For example, you can book a hotel at any time of the day on Success lion travel. This will not be the case if customers have to visit JT’s headquarters to make reservations. It means they are losing customers.
It is good customer service
The presence of an online booking system on your website shows that you are well-aware of the needs of your customers. It will allow your customers to book directly, pay and get confirmed automatically. This knowledge will definitely make any customer happy.
Reduce your workload
If you are not using an online booking system today, then you may still be processing all your bookings manually. A good online booking system will handle all the aspects of the booking.
Customer data are readily available
If you use a reliable online booking system which also handles walk-ins, email, online and phone bookings, then you will have all your customers data in a structured system. It will be readily available for research and loyalty rewards.
Discount Codes
Discount codes are a great way to market your business. So, make sure your online booking system can support discount codes. This will keep customers coming back.
It is easy to use
Your online booking system should have at least one screen where you can see your availability very quickly and clearly. This removes the need for the old paper booking and allows your reception staff to easily see whether you have availability or not.
Online payments
For some businesses, you may want to add an automated payment system. With this in place, your customers will seamlessly book and pay for their bookings.

The Election Result They Want In Osun

The Election Result They Want In Osun I f the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) had its way, its candidate in Saturday’s governorship election in Osun State, Ademola Adeleke, would have been declared governor that day. The party is so upset with the decision of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to declare the election inconclusive, that it has threatened dire consequences should the result go the other way. Adeleke scored 254,698 votes, giving him 353 votes more than his main rival and candidate of the All Progressives Party, Gboyega Oyetola. But 3,498 potentially consequential votes were unaccounted for. Yet there are those who insist that by simple majority, Adeleke should have been declared winner. Why is INEC wasting time? As the parties return to the seven polling units in the four local councils that will finally decide the election, it appears that it is not only PDP that wants Adeleke declared winner, anyhow. In the run-up to the electi...

Football transfer news and rumours: 'Chelsea to intensify efforts with £25m bid for Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain'

Cheamanager Antonio Conte, who earlier this week was reassured that  at least three more new players would arrive at Stamford Bridge before the transfer window closes , is understood to have increased his interest in  Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain . The Arsenal midfielder has just one year left on his contract and had been linked with a move across the capital earlier this summer, but according to the  Daily Mail  the Premier League champions are now ready to 'intensify their efforts' with a bid of around £25 million. Clearly not content with the prospect of upsetting some fans in one part of north London, Conte is also, according to the one red top, hoping to take  Danny Rose  from Tottenham Hotspur. The Italian manager had hoped to sign Alex Sandro from Juventus, though the Turin club are digging their heels in and are reportedly demanding at least £60m for the Brazilian. Despite having had surgery in May, Rose is expected to be fi...
