As ‘wet bars’ face a daunting challenge of how and when they are going to open and how they will be able to operate, Lurgan publican JonJo Power, along with Ross Porter of Podium Apps, have developed and brought to market a booking app which eliminates no shows, guarantees revenue, has an in-built track and trace device and helps manage capacity and staff.

Ross Porter said: “Just another App?  No way! The brief for the team was to deliver a digital solution based on an innovative and challenging set of requirements delivered by Jonjo in order to re-launch hospitality and stay ahead of the curve of a rapidly changing sector which has been so greatly burdened in these uncertain times.

“Locally developed and uniquely Northern Irish, R2S operates as a booking system furnished with a APP interface, a Covid compliance rating feature, a full track and trace functionality and a ‘kitty’ generator for the customer which creates a guaranteed minimum spend for the operator, turning expensive no shows into a profit.”
