Zonal has partnered with booking channel aggregator, Mozrest to offer hospitality businesses the opportunity to boost their online bookings through Google, Facebook and Instagram.
An Ofcom survey recently revealed that UK adults now spend more than 3.5 hours a day online – researching, ordering, purchasing and communicating[1]. The integration between Zonal and Mozrest allows operators to access a previously untapped opportunity by converting searches to bookings.
With Mozrest, venues can add a booking button to Google Search and Google Maps results featuring their pub or restaurant, as well as their Facebook and Instagram profile pages, generating incremental bookings while building their own brands. Venues that implement both Mozrest’s solution as well as Zonal’s booking platform will be able to track bookings in real-time, show available slots online and send instant confirmation email, SMS and booking reminders to customers.
Commenting on the partnership, Olivia FitzGerald Chief Sales Marketing Officer, Zonal said: “Online bookings are, increasingly, an integral part of the customer journey and the partnership with Mozrest gives operators an opportunity to reach more customers and drive more sales whilst providing even more control of their bookings.”
Jérôme Pernollet, Founder & CEO of Mozrest, added: “Our partnership with Zonal presents a huge opportunity for restaurants to enhance their visibility online, receive more bookings and increase their revenue. We’re thrilled to be able to offer Zonal customers ways to make their booking and reservation systems future-proof.”
