FacilityPro lets venues list free, keep internal bookings free, and take about 90% of paid public hire.
Key takeaways
- Treat the calendar as the only booking truth for club secretaries.
- Publish prices, buffers, and cancellation rules where hirers can see them.
- Take payment in the booking flow when you open public hire.
- Give more than one officer access so holidays do not freeze the diary.
