Read on 2026-09-21. Prices as printed on each vendor's price page on the date shown, in the vendor's currency and for the plan named; they change, and the vendor's page is the authority. Kwipps does not convert them or add anything. Names are the vendors' own.

The terms

Plain terms, in four lines

No contract

A monthly plan with no minimum term.

No setup fee

We build the website before you pay. Your own address is charged for its first year when you go live.

No commission, no fee per guest

The price is the plan. Kwipps takes nothing from a booking or a payment; a card payment carries only the payment provider's own fee.

Cancel monthly

Cancel from your account whenever you like. The plan runs to the end of the month you paid for.

Prices in Swiss francs, for every trade the same. The plans are under Pricing above.

Already have a website

Put the booking form on your own site

Keep the website you have. Paste two lines and a "Book a table" button appears on it, opening your Kwipps booking page right over your site; your developer can show your menu and events too, through the API. The bookings land in the same console as everything else.

  • A booking form that follows your open times and table rules
  • Your menu and your events, always the current ones
  • Confirmed at once when a table is free, or a request you confirm — as on our websites
  • An API for your developer, with a key only your website can use

Paste this where the "Book a table" button should appear

Questions

Questions, answered

What is Kwipps for restaurants?

A website for your restaurant that takes reservations, and one console for tonight's service, the floor, the guest book and the menu. We build the website first, free; you choose a plan only if you want it live.

Do guests need an account to book?

No. They book with their name and email, and change or cancel from the link in their email.

Can guests see which times a day has?

Yes. After choosing a day on the calendar they see that day's own times as buttons, grouped by service — lunch, dinner.

Do I pay anything before I see my website?

No. We build your website first and you try it — the console included. You only choose a plan if you want to go live.

How quickly do I see something?

The demo website arrives by email 1–3 minutes after you send the form. Going live starts when you choose a plan and an address.

Do guests pay a fee to book?

No. Bookings come straight from your own website. There is no booking platform in between taking a fee per guest.

Do card payments cost extra?

Kwipps takes nothing from a payment. Deposits and collection orders go through Stripe, whose own fee applies, and TWINT is offered where the account has it. Nothing is taken on a preview.

Can I keep taking bookings by phone?

Yes. Phone bookings and walk-ins go into the same diary as the website's, so the room is always right.

What if I already have a website?

Keep it, and take the Tools plan: bookings, the floor, guests and your menu, with a booking page to link from your own site. Or we build you a new one on a preview address first, and it moves to your address when you go live.

Can my manager log in?

Yes. The Business plan includes 3 logins and Pro has no limit. Each person has their own sign-in, and you can remove it at any time.

Can I see it working first?

Yes. Marrow & Vine is our demo restaurant, with invented tables and guests: open its website and look at the booking form the way a diner would.

What happens if I cancel?

Plans are monthly. Cancel and your plan runs to the end of the month you paid for. Your domain and your content are yours.

Your free demo
