Why switch
Why venues switch to stampede.
Why venues switch to
- Group bookings with pre-orders, deposits and allergens on the booking, without paying for the top tier to unlock them.
- 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 dropped into your site.
- One guest profile across ordering, bookings, Wi-Fi, payments, loyalty, reviews and marketing, not a booking diary with campaigns bolted on.
- Your Square till and your bookings work together: seat a booking and every paid tab lands on the guest profile.
- Every walk-in on your Wi-Fi becomes a contact you can market to, not just the guests who booked.
- A points card in Apple and Google Wallet, with no app for the guest to download.
- One flat price per venue with no per-cover fees, and your data future-proofed for AI on one guest record.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
Yes. Stampede does online bookings, floor plans, waitlist, deposits and pre-orders for group bookings, then adds what Favouritetable does not offer at any tier: native guest Wi-Fi capture, a points loyalty programme in Apple and Google Wallet, Google review management with AI replies and a two-way Square integration, all on one guest profile.
Because AI is only as good as the data beneath it. Favouritetable holds your bookings, but its reviews sit on its own site, it captures nothing on Wi-Fi, runs no points loyalty and does not list Square, so the rest of the guest lives elsewhere. On Stampede, every booking, order, Wi-Fi login, Square payment, loyalty point and review lands on one guest record as it happens. The fewer places your data lives, the more context our AI agent has, so it answers from what happened, not a guess, and asks before it acts.
On its FT Flex pay-as-you-go plan, yes: £2 per cover. Its monthly plans do not, but then pre-orders, waitlist and marketing are only on the £199 FT Ultimo tier. Stampede has no per-cover fees on any booking and one flat price per venue for the whole platform.
Only on FT Ultimo, its £199 a month top tier. On Stampede, pre-orders for group bookings are part of the platform: menus, modifiers and split-pay sit on the booking, allergens reach the floor, and the bill lands on the guest profile through Square.
Square is not listed among the EPOS partners on its integrations page, and EPOS integration is only on FT Ultimo. Stampede connects to Square both ways: deposits and pre-orders connect through to Square, every paid tab lands on the guest profile, and loyalty points are earned off the till automatically.
Neither appears in its pricing, marketing or integrations pages. It tracks visit history, but there is no points scheme and no Wi-Fi capture. Stampede includes both: guest Wi-Fi that captures an opted-in contact at connect, and a points loyalty card that goes straight into the phone wallet with no app to download.
Yes, and we do it for you. Our team brings your guests, bookings and history across and switches Stampede on, with Square, Wi-Fi and loyalty connected from the start.
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. Favouritetable’s booking widget is code you take from its diary, and branding it means sending your own CSS file or building on its API. If your brand matters, Stampede is the choice.
