Online Booking Systems
Booking systems built around your business in Cornwall — appointments, MOTs, pitches, tables or tickets, taken online 24/7 with no commission and no phone calls.
What it is
An online booking system lets customers book and pay with you directly through your website, any time of day. Westcode builds custom booking systems for Cornwall businesses — from MOT and service bookings for garages to pitch bookings for campsites, appointments for salons and tickets for events. Every system is built bespoke, so it handles your slots, your services and your rules exactly, with no commission on your bookings.
Problems we solve
- You lose bookings because customers can't book outside phone hours
- Phone calls interrupt the work you're trying to do
- Double-bookings and missed appointments happen too often
- Third-party booking apps take a cut of every booking
- You can't easily remind customers about upcoming or missed appointments
Who it's for
- Garages and MOT centres taking service bookings
- Salons, clinics and wellbeing businesses with appointments
- Campsites, pubs and hospitality taking pitch or table bookings
- Activity and event businesses selling tickets or slots
- Any service business that books customers in

Our development approach
We look at how you currently take bookings, then design a system that fits your services, your hours and your capacity. We build it into your website so customers never leave your site to book, and we connect it to your calendar and payment provider. Because it's bespoke, unusual rules — like MOT + service combos, seasonal pitches or tiered ticket releases — are all handled properly.
After launch we maintain the system and add features as you grow. You own it outright.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I pay commission on each booking?
No. Unlike third-party booking apps, our booking systems are built for you and owned by you. You only pay the standard card processing fee from your payment provider — we take no cut.
Can customers pay when they book?
Yes. We can take full payment or a deposit at the time of booking, or simply hold the slot without payment — whichever suits your business.
Will it work on my existing website?
We can build a booking system into a new Westcode website or integrate one with a site you already have. Tell us what you're working with and we'll advise.
Can it send reminders to reduce no-shows?
Yes. Automated email reminders before appointments are one of the most effective ways to cut missed bookings, and they're built in.
