What you get

Six tools that pay for themselves

One extra direct booking a year covers the licence. Everything below is ready to switch on from your dashboard.

Invoices

Invoices that write themselves

Every stay gets a numbered PDF invoice, with VAT broken down by rate and the tourist tax shown separately. Issue it from the booking, the day after check-out or as soon as the stay is paid, and it lands in your guest's inbox automatically.

  • Sequential numbers, never a gap
  • Credit notes for cancellations and corrections
  • A monthly export for your accountant
A PDF invoice from the demo: room and tourist tax, VAT at 10 % and the total

Verified reviews

Let happy guests do the selling

After check-out, guests are invited by e-mail to review their stay. Only real guests can post, nothing goes live until you approve it, and you can reply publicly. Your rating sits on your own site, so visitors don't wander off to a booking platform to read reviews, and book there instead.

  • A verified-stay badge on every review
  • Your public replies under each review
  • A clear notice on how reviews are checked
Guest reviews on the demo: a 4.8 out of 5 average and verified reviews with the property's replies

Reports

Know your numbers at a glance

See occupancy, room revenue, average daily rate and RevPAR for any period, broken down by room type and by booking source. Spot quiet weeks early, and find out which channels really pay off.

  • The last twelve months side by side
  • Bookings and guest lists exported to a spreadsheet
  • Revenue hidden from front-desk staff

Payments with WooCommerce

Let guests pay the way they prefer

Already running WooCommerce? Offer every payment gateway you've set up there, from local cards and bank payments to mobile money and pay-later options. Rooms are held while the guest pays, and refunds go back through the same gateway.

  • A deposit or the full stay, as you choose
  • Alongside Stripe and PayPal, or instead of them
  • Refunds through the gateway when it supports them
  • Visa & Mastercard
  • Apple Pay
  • Google Pay
  • iDEAL
  • Bancontact
  • UPI
  • M-Pesa
  • Klarna
  • Mercado Pago
  • Paystack
Any online gateway available for WooCommerce, in your site's currency.

Currencies

Show prices in your guests' currency

Visitors pick their currency and see your rates converted at the European Central Bank's daily rates, or at rates you set yourself. They still pay in your currency, so there's nothing to reconcile at the end of the month.

  • A currency selector you can place anywhere
  • A clear note that converted prices are approximate
  • Rates refreshed twice a day, or set by you

Activities

Sell more than the room

Offer excursions, classes or tastings with dates, times and a set number of places. Guests add them to their stay at checkout, or book them on their own from the activity's page.

  • Adult and child prices
  • Places tracked for every session
  • A page of its own for each activity
Activities on the demo: a sunset kayak tour and a wine tasting, with their prices per person

Frequently asked questions

When can I buy Pandao Booking Pro?

Very soon: Pro goes on sale as soon as the free Pandao Booking plugin is published on WordPress.org. In the meantime, you can try every Pro feature on the live demo.

Do I need the free plugin?

Yes. Pro adds modules to Pandao Booking, which is free on WordPress.org. Install both: your rooms, rates and bookings stay where they are when you upgrade.

What happens if I don't renew?

Everything keeps working. Your licence gives you a year of updates and support; renew whenever you want them again.

Do you take a commission on bookings?

No. Guests pay you directly, through your own Stripe or PayPal account or your WooCommerce gateways. We never take a cut.

Can I try Pro before buying?

Yes. Every Pro feature is on the live demo, on the site and in the dashboard (username admin, password admin123). And if Pro isn't right for you, the 30-day money-back guarantee has you covered.

Can I move my licence to another site?

Yes. Deactivate it in Booking › Pro license on the old site, then enter your key on the new one. Development sites on your own computer don't count towards your limit.

Which payment gateways work with WooCommerce?

Any gateway available for WooCommerce that takes payments online, as long as WooCommerce uses the same currency as your booking site. Bank transfers, cheques and payment on arrival are already handled by the free plugin.

Do the invoices meet EU rules?

They carry the details EU invoicing rules ask for: a sequential number, the property's and the guest's details, prices before VAT, VAT by rate and the total, with the tourist tax kept outside VAT. Your accountant knows your local requirements best, so do check with them.

Who handles the payment and the VAT?

Freemius, our reseller, handles the checkout, the invoices for your purchase and the VAT. Prices are in US dollars; VAT is added at checkout where it applies.

Ready to take more bookings direct?

Start with the free plugin, add Pro when you need it, and keep every booking commission-free.
