Sources: each system’s published pricing and feature pages, captured June 2026. ResDiary does not publish a public price — plans are quoted after a sales call, and most add-ons are charged on top of the monthly fee. OpenTable lists Core and Pro tiers without UK prices, charges roughly £1 to £1.50 per network cover on network bookings only, and added a 2% service fee on deposits and prepaid bookings in early 2026. Square’s UK card rate is 1.75% in person and 1.4% + 25p online up to £200,000 a year, with a custom rate above that. Dojo prices card processing by annual card turnover, from £39.99 a month flat under £100,000 a year. Figures can change — check directly with each provider before relying on them.

A fair comparison doesn’t need a thumb on the scale. The numbers, side by side and sourced, make the case on their own.

Questions

The comparison, answered.

How is the comparison data sourced?

Every figure comes from each system’s own published pricing and feature pages, or from widely reported industry data where a system doesn’t publish in full. Each one is dated, and we re-check the table before every update rather than letting it drift.

Why does Inservo include more for a lower subscription?

Suite+ includes card processing, so the small margin on payments funds the system — which is why the subscription can sit below reservations-only or per-cover pricing.

Does Inservo charge per-cover fees?

No. There are no per-cover or per-booking fees on any plan. The cost is the monthly subscription and, on Suite+, the published card-processing rate.
