Function centre event packages, menus & run sheets

Function centres: from enquiry to run sheet in one system. Packages, menus and payments sorted.

Enquiries by email, menu choices in spreadsheets and run sheets rebuilt for every event. We build event management systems for function centres.

Looking for function centre booking software?

Every function involves rooms, packages, menus, guest numbers and payments. We build systems that carry an event from enquiry to the night.

Wollopit builds ordering, bookings, menus and websites for function centres 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.

Everything under one roof

Software, websites and systems for function centres.

Custom software for function centres

Built around how your function centre actually runs: package quotes, room calendars and the admin in between, in one system you own.

Websites for function centres

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

Function centre 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 function centres

Menu selection and guest numbers: customer and staff portals that work on any phone without an app store.

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 function centre: 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 function centres ask us.

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

Can clients view their event details?

Yes. Clients get a portal with their booking, menu, payments and timeline.

How much does it cost?

It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand your function centre. 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 function centres 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.
