For hotels, inns and venues that host events

Rooms and events that finally talk to each other.

Most hotels run reservations in one system, ticketing in another, and door access in a third — and none of them know what the others are doing. FIP Booking is one platform: a guest booking a room is told about the event in the ballroom that night, the event sells reserved seats and lockers, and the door code on the guest's phone opens the room, the gate and the coat check.

One calendar — rooms, events and the overlap between them

Why it's different

Eight things you won't find in a PMS, a ticketing site, or a lock app — because they only work when it's all one system.

Rooms and events know about each other

A guest booking a room over an event date is told about it before paying. Publish an event later and everyone already staying gets an email.

Password-gated stays and events

Booking periods that need an access code before a guest can even see rates. Private events unlocked with a password. Rate-limited, logged, reviewable.

Learn more →

Tiered and timed pricing

Early-bird, regular and last-minute tiers that switch on a schedule, a separate door price that kicks in when the show starts, per-tier caps.

Reserved seating with a room builder

Draw your room — theatre rows, cocktail tables, couches, a bar — and sell exact seats by section. Held while the buyer checks out. Never double-sold.

Timed entry in groups

Haunted house, escape room, tour: reservations in timeslots, parties packed into numbered groups, a door roster staff run from a phone.

Learn more →

Room codes and wristbands

Check-in programs a 4-digit code (the last four of the guest's phone) onto the room door for exactly the stay. RFID wristbands open any mix of gates, lockers and rooms.

Self-service lockers

A coat-check board for events, locker rentals sold as tickets or add-ons, and a permanent QR code at the locker wall that sells "12 hours from right now" any night of the year.

A real website on your domain, included

Custom domain, unlimited custom pages, three themes, your fonts, blog, galleries, art exhibits and a local-business directory — with bookings and tickets built in. No WordPress to host or patch.

One evening, one system

Saturday: a cabaret in the lounge, a full house upstairs.

Weeks before

A guest books Room 4 for the weekend.

Nothing about this is a workaround. The room engine and the event engine share one calendar, so the warning is a query, not a memo taped to the front desk.

  • The booking wizard checks published events against the stay dates and shows them before payment
  • The guest ticks I understand there is an event at the property — and it's stored on the booking
  • Rate rules, minimum stays and a seasonal booking period all resolved automatically

Ticket sales

The cabaret sells reserved cocktail tables and standing room.

Tiered pricing, timed pricing, assigned seats and general admission are all options on one event — not four products.

  • Early-bird tier switches to regular pricing on a schedule; a door price takes over when the show starts
  • Tables and couches drawn in the seat builder; buyers pick exact seats, held while they pay
  • Standing room stays general admission on the same event
  • Guests who asked to be notified get the announcement; everyone staying that weekend gets an email

Check-in

Room 4’s guest gets a door code. So does the coat check.

Locks, gates and lockers are one inventory. A code or a wristband is a permission across all of them, tracked per lock so you can see exactly what's programmed where.

  • Check-in programs a 4-digit code onto the room's smart lock, valid only for the stay
  • The same code opens the house gates, and — if you switch it on — the coat-check lockers
  • A locker rental bought with the ticket is programmed automatically and emailed with directions
  • Expired codes are swept off the locks; nothing lingers

Showtime

Staff scan tickets at the door from a phone.

Comps, POS sales and online orders are all the same ticket, so the roster, the seat map and the sales report never disagree.

  • QR check-in shows the guest's name, ticket count and seats in big type
  • A bag-check number can be attached at the door and picked up later
  • Door sales ring through a paired Square Terminal and land in the same attendee list
  • The event's expenses, co-producer splits and settlements reconcile on the Financials page

Boutique hotels with a lounge or ballroom

Sell the room and the show as one experience. Guests staying over see the event; ticket buyers see the rooms.

Venues with member or private nights

Password-gated events and access-code booking periods keep private programming private without a second system.

Properties with coat check, gates or lockers

Wristbands, keypad codes, passage schedules and locker rentals — run from the same dashboard as reservations.
