Pricing
What you pay.
One flat price per venue

- Ordering, bookings, Wi-Fi, loyalty, reviews and marketing on one price
- No per-cover fees
- Onboarding and support included
- Your guest data is yours to keep and export at any time
TableSense
Three plans, no prices shown
TableSense says it has three plans with no per-booking fees, but shows no figures on its pricing page.
- Prices come from a demo, not the website
- Email marketing needs a Mailchimp or Email Octopus account on top
- No guest Wi-Fi, points loyalty or review management to buy at any price
- Two POS integrations listed, and Square is not one of them
Why switch
Why venues switch to stampede.
Why venues switch to
- Pre-orders for group bookings that land on the Square bill and the guest profile, not just a kitchen docket.
- 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 just a styled booking widget.
- One guest profile across ordering, bookings, Wi-Fi, payments, loyalty, reviews and marketing, instead of a booking CRM that exports to Mailchimp.
- Every walk-in on your Wi-Fi becomes a contact you can market to, not just the guests who booked.
- A real points programme in Apple and Google Wallet, with no app to download, not a VIP flag.
- Google reviews answered with AI replies in your voice, in the same place as your bookings.
- 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, table management, deposits and pre-orders for group bookings, then adds what TableSense does not offer: native guest Wi-Fi capture, email and SMS marketing built in, 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. TableSense holds bookings and pre-orders, but email lives in Mailchimp or Email Octopus, spend lives in your till, and there is no Wi-Fi, loyalty or review data at all. 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.
Both take pre-orders at the booking. On Stampede they do not stop at the kitchen: menus, modifiers and split-pay sit on the booking, allergens reach the floor, the bill lands on the guest profile through Square, and the same guest is then rewarded with points and brought back by email and SMS.
No. Its integrations page lists two POS systems, and Square is not one of them. 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.
No. Loyalty is a one-click VIP flag on the guest profile, and neither Wi-Fi capture nor review management appears on its site. Stampede includes all three: Wi-Fi that captures an opted-in contact at connect, a points card in the phone wallet with no app to download, and Google reviews answered with AI replies.
It does not publish prices. Its pricing page describes three plans with no per-booking fees, and prices come through a demo. Stampede is one flat price per venue for the whole platform, with no per-cover fees.
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. TableSense embeds a booking widget in your website’s HTML and offers a Venue Showcase to match your brand, but email goes out through Mailchimp and there is no Wi-Fi splash or wallet card. If your brand matters, Stampede is the choice.
