Bar websites: gig listings, specials & function bookings

Bars: fill the room every night of the week. Gigs, specials and functions online.

Gig posters on Instagram only, specials nobody sees and function enquiries lost in DMs. We build event, specials and booking systems for bars.

Looking for a bar website with events and function bookings?

Bars live on giving people a reason to come in. We build websites and systems that promote gigs and specials and turn function enquiries into bookings.

Wollopit builds ordering, bookings, menus and websites for bars around how your venue actually runs. We connect the POS and tools you already use, cut out the commissions you don't need to pay and look after the lot on our own servers, so you can get back on the floor.

01The problems

What we hear from bars

Does your bar have these problems? Here's how we'd fix them.

04Services

Everything under one roof

Software, websites and systems for bars.

Whether you're starting fresh or upgrading what you've got, it's one team from the first sketch to the support call.

Custom software for bars

Built around how your bar actually runs: gig listings, live specials and the admin in between, in one system you own.

Websites for bars

Fast, hand-built websites that rank for the searches your customers make and turn visits into enquiries, bookings or orders.

Bar system upgrades

Running on spreadsheets, old software or a platform you've outgrown? We move your data across and upgrade in stages so the business never stops.

Apps and portals for bars

Function bookings and table reservations: customer and staff portals that work on any phone without an app store.

Integrations and automation

We connect Square, Lightspeed and Shopify so information moves on its own and nobody retypes it.

Hosting, support and care

Managed hosting, updates, backups and security for your bar, looked after by the people who built it.

06How we work

The process

Some people dip their toe in. We turn up in a rebreather.

We get properly below the surface of your bar: the systems, the busy days and the jobs everyone hates. Then we fix the bits that matter most first.

  1. 01

    Think

    We spend time with the people doing the work, see where the hours go and work out what's actually slowing you down.

  2. 02

    Archi-tech

    We plan it before writing code: your data, customers, payments, the tools you keep, hosting and cost.

  3. 03

    Build

    Real engineering, shown to you early and often. Usually the most painful bit first, so you get a win quickly.

  4. 04

    Look after

    We host it, maintain it and keep improving it. When something breaks you call the people who built it.

07Questions

FAQ

Things bars ask us.

Something else on your mind? Ring 0423 011 252 and ask the people who'd build it.

Can it link to our ticketing?

Yes. Gigs can link to your ticketing or we can sell tickets directly.

How much does it cost?

It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand your bar. No surprise invoices, no lock-in and you own what we build.

Will it work with our POS?

Usually, yes. We connect to common systems like Square and Lightspeed so orders, menus and stock line up. If yours is holding you back we'll talk options first.

Do we stop paying commission?

On orders and bookings that come through your own website, yes. You pay your card fees and that's it, instead of handing over a cut of every sale.

Who looks after it once it's built?

We do. We host it on our own managed servers and keep it updated and secure. When you need something you ring the people who built it.

We already have systems. Can you upgrade them instead of starting again?

Usually, yes. Most bars we work with keep what's working and upgrade the rest in stages. We move your data across, connect the old and new while we switch and retire the old system only when the new one is proven.
