There is news in the family. After years of handling bookings for bowling alleys, boats, guided tours and meeting rooms, i-Reserve has a little sister: Gasto. Same team, same way of thinking, but built entirely for the floor of a restaurant.
Why a sister and not just another module? Because a restaurant runs differently from an escape room or a padel court. There you book a time slot or a court; in a restaurant you spend the whole evening shuffling tables, courses and guests who turn up a little late. That deserves a system of its own, with a name of its own. Here is what you need to know about Gasto:
1. Made for the evening itself
Gasto revolves around the floor plan of your venue. You drag guests to their table and see at a glance how the room is doing. Around that sits everything you need during service: guest profiles with preferences, allergies and past visits, automatic confirmations and reminders by email and text message, and deposits or no-show protection if you want them.

Start your trial2. No commission, ever
Many restaurant platforms charge per cover or take a percentage of your revenue. Gasto does not. You pay a fixed monthly price, with as many team members as you need. You may recognise that from i-Reserve: predictable, without your growth suddenly becoming more expensive.
3. The same DNA as i-Reserve
Gasto comes from the same workshop as i-Reserve, and it shows. The booking page works in nine languages. Private rooms for a lunch, wedding or business meeting can be requested online. And with telephony you see who is calling, while the conversation lands in your system with an AI summary. What we learn in one product benefits the other.
4. Stronger together: how we complement each other
Think of the bowling centre with a restaurant, the golf club with a clubhouse, the boat operator with a café on the quay or the museum with a lunchroom. For the activity, the lane or the boat, i-Reserve remains the place to be. For the tables in the restaurant, there is now Gasto. And the other way round: a restaurant that also offers workshops, packages or room hire will find everything for that part of the business in i-Reserve.
Do you know a restaurant that could use this?
You can try Gasto free for 30 days, without a credit card and with help moving your existing reservations across. Have a look at Gasto, the reservation system for restaurants to see everything it can do, or pass the link on to that one restaurant owner who is still paying commission.
