Can you connect to the property system we already use?
When that system has an interface we can use, yes. Pangeapod used Mews. A different vendor is a different integration and is estimated on its own.
Industries
Booking journeys and restaurant operations
Travel and hospitality software has to show an honest current state: a room that can be booked, or an order the kitchen can see. AmstelMinds builds those journeys and the staff tools beside them. The guest view and the operational view are scoped together when they depend on the same data.
Hotels and other booking flows
A booking site fails when availability or price on the page is not the availability or price in the system of record. The Pangeapod project connects room search, rates and reservations through a Mews integration, including promotional codes. That is the shape of the work: wire the guest steps to the system the hotel already trusts.
Features, integrations and the usual pitfalls are discussed in building a hotel booking system. It is a planning note. It is not a claim that every property needs the same feature list.
Restaurants
Restaurant work is often an ordering flow plus the tools that keep menus, tables and order status current. Instadine covers customer ordering and checkout with an owner dashboard for menus, tables and live order updates. Read that case study before assuming a QR menu alone is the project.
If the brief is a public marketing site for a venue, with no live availability, it belongs with web development rather than a booking build.
How these projects are bounded
We need access to the booking or ordering system, or a decision to choose one. Third-party limits, such as what an API will not return, are written into the scope. Price follows that integration and the number of guest and staff roles. We do not quote a booking platform as if the vendor's software were ours.
Questions
Do you process guest payments yourselves?
Payment handling is done through the payment provider in the scope. We integrate the flow. We are not a payment institution, and we do not hold guest funds.
