# Oddle Reserve

Oddle Reserve gives your restaurant its own direct reservation channel — with all the essentials you need for bookings, seating, and no-show controls, without unnecessary complexity.

Guests book through your branded booking page, your website, Reserve with Google, or your Oddle Shop. Every reservation flows into one place: the Host App, where your floor team manages the day-to-day.

The smart part? Reserve is connected to the rest of Oddle. Every booking captures guest data that feeds into Customer Intelligence and Marketing — so follow-ups like cancelled reservation win-backs and lapsed guest re-engagement happen automatically, without a separate tool.

## Key Concepts

Before diving in, here's how Oddle Reserve is structured:

**Tickets** define *what* guests can book — a standard table reservation, a prix fixe dinner, an outdoor brunch. Each ticket has its own capacity rules, payment settings, and availability.

**Schedules** define *when* those tickets are available. You set weekly recurring schedules, override them with special schedules for holidays or events, and block out dates when you're closed.

**Tables & Floor Plan** define *where* guests sit. You set up your areas, tables, and seating capacity — then your floor team handles the rest from the Host App.

## Where to Manage What

Reserve settings live in two places:

**Merchant Admin** (`panel.oddle.me`) is where you manage your booking channels — your reservation link, website widget, and Oddle Shop reservation page. This is also where you configure brand-level settings like house rules.

**Host App** (`host.oddle.me`) is where your team manages everything operational — schedules, tickets, tables, floor plan, notifications, and day-to-day reservations. Most of the setup covered in this section happens here.
