In the form, the customer says how many people are coming; the app shows the tables still free, and each email can hold only one table per slot. [See appointment booking](/extensions/appointment-booking/) ### The cancelled gig 5 p.m.: tonight's band cancels. You change the event in the agenda, which turns into a quiz night, then send a notification to everyone who has the app. Two steps, which your AI assistant can also take for you. [See the agenda](/extensions/cms-agenda/) ### Wednesday quiz night Teams sign up through a form. At the counter, each player scans the QR code by the till and earns a point on their loyalty card, only one per night: you set one day between two points. The next day, the answers are in the app, with the players' photos you chose to publish. [See the loyalty card](/extensions/loyalty-card/) ## The nights that count A match, a gig, a quiz: three nights where your bar's app does the job posters and the phone used to do. [Start for free](https://www.goodbarber.com/create/) ## A week at the bar in three steps The lineup on Monday, the notification the day before, loyalty on the night. 1. 1 ### Monday: the lineup Wednesday's quiz, Thursday's gig, the weekend matches: each night gets its own page in the agenda, with the time, the poster and the address. When entry is paid, the page carries a button to your usual ticketing site. 2. 2 ### The day before: the notification Schedule it for 6 p.m. the next day, in 130 characters or fewer. Send it to your regulars, the people who opened the app several times in the last 30 days, or to the neighborhood, by drawing an area on the map: only customers with location turned on receive it. 3. 3 ### On the night: the counter The customer scans the QR code by the till and earns their point; once the card is full, they get the gift you picked. A coupon in limited numbers, valid until Sunday, offers a sharing platter, and the club card singles out the people who come back every week. Ordering and paying for drinks don't go through this content app: they belong to an eCommerce app. ## Your app, your social media or an ordering app? What each tool brings to a bar, and what it doesn't do. | | Your GoodBarber app | Social media | Ordering app | | --------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------- | -------------------------- | | Your event nights, in an app that carries your bar's name | ✓ Yes, iOS and Android | In the feed, among everything else | Depends on the plan | | Tables to book on match nights | ✓ Yes, one seat per table | No | Depends on the plan | | A notification sent only to your regulars | ✓ Yes, by usage or by area | Depends on the platform | Depends on the plan | | A loyalty card validated at the counter | ✓ Yes, by QR code | No | Depends on the plan | | Paid entry | Through a link to your ticketing site | Depends on the platform | Depends on the plan | | Ordering and paying for drinks | No, that's an eCommerce app's job | No | ✓ Yes, that's what it does | ## What a bar puts in its app ### The bar menu Drinks and platters, with their prices: a section you update whenever the menu changes. ### Photos from the nights Customers send their photos through the Submission Section; you pick the ones that appear in the app. ### Private hire A form for birthdays and leaving parties: the date, the number of people, the occasion. You call the customer back for the rest. ### The club card Three levels, based on how many loyalty cards a customer has filled, each with its own perks, such as a table kept for them on match nights. ### Coupons You set how many coupons there are, their validity dates and how many times each customer can use one, offer by offer, and you see how many were used. ### The countdown Before the final or the summer street party, the Store's [Countdown](/extensions/countdown/) extension shows the time left. ### Getting there The bar, the nearest bus stop and the parking lot, pinned on a [map](/extensions/cms-map/) in the app. ## AI at your bar Three concrete uses: tonight's event up front, answers to questions, tasks handed to your assistant. To build ### "Tonight at the bar", kept current by the agenda In plain words, tell the AI Extension Builder what this section does: read your Agenda, put tonight's event in large type, and fall back to the next one on quiet nights. No options panel: your request holds every setting. Free To answer ### A Chatbot for questions before the night "Which match is on tonight, and on which screen?", "Is the gig free?": the Chatbot draws on the agenda and the published content, and replies in the customer's language. It can't see which tables are still free: the booking section shows that. $35/month To operate ### The agenda and bookings from Claude or ChatGPT At 1 a.m., from your phone: "Add Saturday's gig at 9 p.m." Before opening: "List the bookings for the final with the number of people." With MCP, your AI assistant handles it: you give the go-ahead, it acts, then it sums up what changed. Included Extension Store What a bar uses from the Store. Authentication and Appointment booking: add-ons with Premium, included in Pro. Loyalty card, Coupons and Club card: add-ons on both plans. Nothing to pay for push notifications, MCP or the AI Extension Builder; the Chatbot comes with a monthly fee.

If you want to build your app using a pre-built template, GoodBarber is ideal for you. At Global Academy, we almost completed the 5th year using their easy-to-use pre-built platforms to build premium Apps for our customers. Also, Goodbarber's customer support is excellent. Highly recommended. Melissa Okta ### [Great support and always very helpful answers.](https://www.trustpilot.com/reviews/60c0ca7cf9f487099ce24eb9) Great support and always very helpful answers. Nothing is too trivial for the team to answer. ### [Responsive support and usually quick.](https://www.trustpilot.com/reviews/60ad3c03f9f4870a94ace1d1) Responsive support and usually quick. Software is by far the best in the market, with tremendous capabilities for configurations. ## Bars and pubs: questions about the app **### Which app builder should a bar or pub use?** Start from the job the app has to do. If it should announce your event nights, take bookings for match nights, run the loyalty card and keep your regulars posted, GoodBarber lets you build it without writing code, on iOS, Android and the web. If you want to take orders and payments, look at the eCommerce app on the [restaurant page](/restaurant-app/); for a coffee shop that sells takeaway, the [coffee shop page](/industry-apps/retail/coffee-shop-owner/). **### How much does an app for a bar cost?** With the Premium plan, add Authentication, the loyalty card, coupons if you want them and, for tables, Appointment booking. Pro already includes Authentication and Appointment booking. The box above lists each amount in your currency; the [pricing page](/pricing/) covers everything else. **### Can customers book a table for a match?** Yes, by counting in tables: a slot with twelve seats means twelve tables. In the form, the customer says how many people are coming, and the app shows the tables still free. Each booking counts as one seat, and the same email can't book the same slot twice. **### Can I sell tickets for a gig or a quiz in the app?** No. No money goes through Appointment booking, and in-app purchase is limited to selling access to content. Add a button to your usual ticketing site on the event's page: the customer buys their ticket there. **### Can customers order or pay for drinks in the app?** Not with this content app. Ordering and payment go through an eCommerce app, like the one on the [restaurant page](/restaurant-app/). **### How do I stop a customer from scanning ten points in one night?** Set a minimum delay between two points, in minutes, hours or days: with one day, there's only one point per night. If your QR code gets around outside the bar, renew it from the back office and print the new one: the old one stops working. **### Can I notify only my regulars, or people in the neighborhood?** Yes. The back office targets customers by how they use the app, such as people who opened it several times in the last 30 days, or by an area you draw on the map, which only reaches people with location turned on. With [Geofencing](/extensions/geofencing/), a notification goes out by itself when a customer with location turned on enters or leaves the area you chose. **### Will the App Store and Google Play accept a bar app?** It goes through the same review as any other app. The age rating is set in the store listing; screenshots, on the other hand, must suit every audience, even when the app is rated 17+. **### Do customers need to create an account?** For the loyalty card, coupons and the club card, yes: these extensions require Authentication, and each customer creates an account once in the app. The agenda, the bar menu and notifications stay open to everyone, no account needed. GoodBarber brings your event agenda, match-night tables and your regulars' loyalty together in a native app that carries your bar's name An app to announce, book and bring people back, which leaves ordering, payment and ticketing to the tools built for them.
