A per-cover fee is a charge for every guest booked through your reservation system. It sounds small, but on a busy service it adds up — and you often pay it on guests who already know your restaurant and would have booked you directly anyway.

TableGo doesn't charge per cover and never takes a commission on your bookings. You pay a flat monthly price, so getting busier makes you more profitable instead of increasing your software bill.

Why per-cover fees can become expensive

They scale with your success: The more bookings you take, the more you pay — even on quiet-margin nights and regulars.
You pay on your own customers: Fees often apply to guests who found you directly, not just new diners from a marketplace.
Costs are unpredictable: Your bill changes every month with covers, making it hard to budget accurately.
The relationship isn't yours: Marketplace bookings can build the platform's network and data rather than your own.

Why predictable monthly pricing is better for most restaurants

With flat monthly pricing, you know your software cost in advance and it doesn't punish you for a great week. For many independent restaurants, a single fixed fee works out cheaper than per-cover pricing once volume builds.

TableGo's Basic plan is free for unlimited online reservations. Pro is a flat £99/month and adds table management, multiple venues, full guest tools and 0% platform fees on deposits, vouchers and events. There are no setup fees and no contracts.

You still drive bookings through your own website widget, your TableGo page and Reserve with Google (coming soon) — so the guest relationship and data stay with you.

Frequently asked questions

What are per-cover fees?

A per-cover fee is a charge applied for each diner booked through a reservation platform. Some systems charge this on every booking; others only on marketplace or network bookings. TableGo charges none of these.

Does TableGo really have no per-cover fees?

Yes. TableGo never charges a fee per diner and takes no commission on bookings. You pay a flat monthly price: Basic is free and Pro is £99/month.

Are there any fees at all?

On the free Basic plan, a 3.5% TableGo platform fee applies only to payments you collect for deposits, vouchers and events; on Pro and Growth that's 0%. Stripe's standard card processing fees apply to those payments on all plans. There are no per-cover fees and no setup fees.

Will I lose bookings without a marketplace?

If most of your bookings come from guests searching your restaurant name, your website or social media, you usually won't. Those guests book directly through your TableGo widget. If you rely heavily on marketplace discovery, you can run both in parallel during the switch.

How do I switch from a per-cover system?

Pro includes free migration support. We can help import your guest data, then you update your website booking widget and Google Business Profile link to TableGo. Most restaurants are live within an hour.
