Why switch
Why venues switch to stampede.
Why venues switch to
- Keep Square. Stampede connects to it both ways, instead of making you switch card provider to take deposits.
- If your brand matters, Stampede is the choice: every venue gets its own fully branded booking page, and one brand kit carries it across menus, events, emails, the wallet card and the Wi-Fi splash, not a booking widget embedded in your site.
- Bookings are one part of it: guest Wi-Fi capture, points loyalty in the phone wallet, reviews and email and SMS all run on the same guest profile.
- Every guest you capture is yours to market to, with email and SMS built in rather than missing.
- One flat price per venue for the whole platform, not a booking subscription with a card provider attached.
- Your data is yours to keep and export, with onboarding and support included.
- You want your data future-proofed for AI, with one guest record across every service rather than a booking diary tied to a card machine.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
Yes. Stampede does online bookings, waitlist and deposits, then adds what Dojo Bookings does not: native guest Wi-Fi capture, a points loyalty card in Apple and Google Wallet, review management with AI replies, and email and SMS marketing, all on one guest profile and all on your Square till.
Because AI is only as good as the data beneath it. Dojo Bookings holds your booking history, but its feature list has no email marketing, guest Wi-Fi capture or review management, so most of the guest lives elsewhere. On Stampede, every booking, Wi-Fi login, Square payment, loyalty point and review lands on one guest record as it happens, so our AI agent answers from your data, not a guess, and asks before it acts.
To take deposits or hold a card on file, yes: Dojo’s booking policies are for Dojo Payments customers, after an underwriting check. Resellers list Dojo Bookings at £149 a month plus VAT, with Dojo card fees on top once you take its payments. Stampede works with Square, so you keep the till and card processing you already run.
Dojo Bookings has no email marketing tool, and its loyalty is limited to offers inside the Dojo diner app. Stampede includes email and SMS marketing and a points loyalty programme that goes straight into the phone wallet, with no app to download.
Yes, every page of it. Each venue gets its own fully branded booking page, with your logo, colours, fonts, photography, menus and what’s on. One brand kit then carries it to the emails, wallet card and Wi-Fi splash. Dojo Bookings, as its own partner lists it, is an embedded booking widget for your website. If your brand matters, Stampede is the choice.
No. Collins is the booking system behind DesignMyNight, owned by The Access Group. Dojo’s booking product came from WalkUp, the virtual queue and restaurant app Dojo bought for £20m, which now runs as the Dojo diner app.
Not once you count everything. Resellers list Dojo Bookings at £149 a month for bookings and queues, with deposits tied to Dojo card processing and its fees, and no Wi-Fi, loyalty, reviews or email marketing. Stampede is one flat price per venue for the whole platform, on the Square till you already have.
Yes, and we do it for you. Our team brings your guests, bookings and history across, connects Square both ways and switches Stampede on while your Dojo contract runs down.
