Take a booking with the POS Desk

***

Step 1: Select a product

You can select an activity from Activities, a departure from Availabilities, or a shop item from Shop Items.

• From the Availabilities section, pick departure time for the activity, or select a voucher. 

• For Shop Items, select the number of items you would like to add to your cart from the Shop Items section.

• For Activities, first, select the activity you would like to book, then select the departure time that best suits your guest from the Activities section.

Step 2: Add items to your cart

• After finding your activity, voucher, or shop item, select the number of guests or items you would like to add to the cart by clicking on the `+` or typing in the number.

• You can also add Add-ons to your bookings:

• • For Guest-Bound Add-ons, select the Guest then select "Add add-ons":
  
  • For Single Item Add-ons, specify the number of items you want to add to the basket:

• When you're happy with your selection, click on Checkout at the bottom right corner.

Step 3: Add booking details

• At Checkout, you'll have an overview of everything you've added to your cart. Take this opportunity to go through the booking and modify anything if needed. You can add guest details, change agent, add a voucher code or package discount, or change the buying user.

• When you're done, click on Pay in the bottom right.

Step 4: Select payment method

To get going, select one of three options:

• Reserve without payment (No payment made at the time of booking)
• Book as paid (Payment made in cash)
• Pay now (Payment made via the POS Desk with a credit card, only available via Payyo)

• Once the reservation or payment is complete, the booking will be confirmed and a new basket will be created.
