Convert “lookers” into “bookers” with Booksure

You own a small B&B, guest house or small villa. You also have a website to promote your business, but you need to convert more online visitors to online bookings. Booksure from South Africa has a webtool to help — you insert the webtool right into your existing website — and you control of the booking process.

Booksure is a secure online booking and payment system. It is not “real-time”, but places control of the process with the B&B owner. According to Booksure’s marketing manager,Lee Rael, “Our product brings all the power and security of a travel portal to the guesthouse owners, under their control at a very affordable price”. Your guests can pay for their stay online any time, right from your own website. Booksure is a three-step process (inquire, quote, pay) and handles bookings whether they arrive by your website, by email, by phone, fax, mail, or walk-in.

Booksure has been in operation for about 18 months, after extensive research and development. Current focus is on the South African market, though other markets will be explored as “the product is universally applicable and viable”.
