Running an activity centre is a constant battle against admin. If your current booking system feels like it's holding you back, you need a system that does more to support the growth of your business.

Here are ten Sailia features that will transform your activity centre operations:

  • Frictionless Booking: A mobile-first checkout designed to handle any type of booking in one seamless flow.

  • Digital Waivers: With dynamic forms, automated reminders, and encrypted data storage, you can ensure the paperwork is done before customers arrive.

  • Integrated Payments: Secure, lightning-fast processing for everything from single tickets to gift vouchers.

  • OTA Support: Real-time inventory sync with third-party platforms including TripAdvisor, GetYourGuide, Adventuro, and Google Things to Do.

  • CRM: Every customer has a profile, storing their history, medical info, and preferences automatically.

  • Smart Staffing: Auto-staff sessions based on qualifications, availability, and roles, with no manual input.

  • Membership Tiers: Drive recurring revenue with automated perk summaries and renewal reminders.

  • Multi-Location Management: Manage staff, inventory, and reporting across several sites from one dashboard.

  • Run anywhere POS: Process everything from bookings and memberships to retail and rentals with a POS system you can run anywhere.

  • Easy Accounting: Sync payouts, revenue, fees, refunds, and taxes into your accounting software.
