Garage websites that take paid bookings while you are under a car
Most garages still take no money up front, so a no-show costs the slot and the parts. Drivers, meanwhile, want a price for their exact tyre size and a time that is really free, without ringing around. Most are on a phone, and many are looking while you are closed. We build garage websites that let them put an MOT, two tyres and an air con service into one visit, pick a slot from your live diary and pay in full, in three steps, connected to the garage management system you already run.
From phone-tag to a paid booking in sixty seconds
The driver types a registration. The site looks up the exact tyre size, shows live prices and stock from your garage management system, and offers times your diary says are really free. They add everything they need to the same visit, an MOT, two tyres, an air con service, and pay the full amount. Three steps: pick a service, choose a time, pay. They get a confirmation email and the job appears in your diary with the tyres ordered from your supplier. No phone call, no callback, no quote written on a pad.
Because the money is taken up front, a no-show costs you far less than it does today. And when a call does go unanswered, the site texts the driver back with a booking link, so the enquiry is caught instead of lost to the next garage on the list.
Connected to the systems you already run
Our garage builds run on four live integrations: Tyresoft garage management, tyre supplier ordering, DVLA vehicle data and Stripe payments. On top of those sit SMS with a booking link, missed-call rerouting and transactional email receipts. Prices and stock come from your system, so the website never quotes a tyre you do not have. If you run a different garage management system, tell us which and we will confirm what connects on the call.
What it costs
Garage booking sites run on our Grow plan: £1,950 setup, then £525 a month, plus VAT, pay as you go. That includes the booking and payment build, tracking for calls and bookings, three hours of changes a month, one improvement shipped every month, and a monthly dashboard and report showing bookings and revenue. Connecting the site to your garage management system and supplier ordering, as in the case study, is Scale at £3,950 setup and £750 a month plus VAT.
One garage per area
We work with one garage per area, so the site we build for you is not competing with one we built down the road. Check whether your area is free on the call.
Questions
Does it work with my garage management system?
+
Tyresoft is live in our builds today. For other systems, tell us which one you run and we will confirm what we can connect before any work starts.
What if a customer books a slot we cannot do?
+
Slots come from availability you control, and every booking is confirmed to you as well as the driver. You can change availability at any time.
Do customers pay in full when they book?
+
Yes. The booking is paid in full before the slot is held, which is what stops no-shows costing you the slot and the parts you ordered in. If you would rather take part of it up front, we can set that up instead.
How long does a garage site take?
+
Four to six weeks for a Grow build, six to ten for Scale, once we have your content and access to your garage management system.
Do prices include VAT?
+
No. Every price is shown before VAT.
