Tags
Tags are labels you attach to guests and bookings to organise your operation - marking VIPs, dietary needs, seating preferences, occasions and more. Under Settings → Tags you manage two separate kinds, each grouped into categories.
The two kinds of tag
Section titled “The two kinds of tag”| Kind | Attached to | Used for |
|---|---|---|
| Client tags | Guests | Long-lived facts about a person - VIP, Regular, Do not admit, dietary needs. Drive admission rules and show on a guest’s profile. |
| Reservation tags | Bookings / reservations | Facts about a single booking - Birthday, Window table, Allergy, Running late. Show on the reservations floor. |
Client tags are managed on the Client tags panel and reservation tags on the Reservation tags panel.
Categories
Section titled “Categories”Within each kind, tags are organised into categories. A category groups related tags - for example an Occasion category holding Birthday, Anniversary and Hen party. You add a category, then add tags inside it.
System vs custom tags
Section titled “System vs custom tags”- System tags are built in and always present. You can’t delete these.
- Custom tags are ones you create for your own operation, in your own categories.
Visibility flags
Section titled “Visibility flags”Each category carries visibility flags that control where its tags surface:
| Flag | Effect when on |
|---|---|
| Allow guest select | Guests can choose these tags themselves when booking (for example picking an occasion). |
| Show on slip | The tags appear on the booking slip your team works from. |
| Show in summary | The tags appear in the booking summary. |
Set these per category to decide how much a tag is exposed - some are purely internal, others you actively want guests to pick.
How tags are used elsewhere
Section titled “How tags are used elsewhere”- Client tags feed admission rules - a rule can reward any guest carrying a given tag with a discount, auto-approval or extra plus-ones.
- Reservation tags can be applied automatically by access profiles and appear on the reservations floor so your team sees a booking’s context at a glance.
