What you're paying for
- Real-time availability and slot locking
- Deposit or full payment at checkout (5% VAT handled)
- WhatsApp + email confirmations
- An owner/manager dashboard
What pushes the price up
Multiple branches, custom deposit rules, Arabic (RTL) alongside English, and integrations with POS or accounting all add scope. Off-the-shelf tools are cheaper up front, but you rent the customer relationship and pay per booking forever.
Estimated timeline
We estimate 3–6 weeks for a focused booking system in Dubai: about a week of design, two to three weeks of build and payment integration, then testing and launch.
