Stop paying commission on every cover.
OpenTable is a consumer marketplace that charges per cover and promotes your competitors alongside you. Revasi gives you a fully branded booking experience with zero commission — your guests, your data, your brand.

Why OpenTable doesn’t work for premium venues.
OpenTable is the largest restaurant reservation marketplace in the world, and it’s effective at what it does: driving volume to restaurants through consumer discovery. But for a high-end restaurant or bar in Asia, the model creates more problems than it solves.
The most immediate issue is cost. OpenTable charges between $1 and $7.50 per cover depending on the plan and booking source. For a premium venue running 50–80 covers a night, that’s $18,000–$200,000+ annually in commission fees alone — money coming directly off your margin for guests who were often already planning to dine with you.
Then there’s the marketplace problem. Every booking on OpenTable puts your venue in a feed alongside every competitor in your city. A guest searching for your restaurant also sees three or four alternatives at the same price point, often with promotional offers. You’re paying for a platform that actively gives your guests reasons to go elsewhere.
The branding issue compounds this. When a guest clicks "Reserve" on your website and lands on an OpenTable page, the experience breaks. Your photography, your typography, your tone of voice — all replaced with OpenTable’s generic interface. For a venue that has invested heavily in brand identity, this disconnect is significant.
Finally, the data. On OpenTable, guest information belongs to the platform. OpenTable uses it to market to guests across the network, including directing them to your competitors. You lose the ability to build your own guest database and communicate directly.
Why premium venues choose Revasi over OpenTable.
Zero commission, flat subscription
Revasi charges a flat subscription fee. No per-cover commission, no hidden fees. Whether you run 30 covers or 300, the price stays the same — and your revenue stays yours.
Your brand, not a marketplace
Revasi isn’t a marketplace. Guests book through your own branded experience — your logo, your colours, your photography. No competitor listings. No discount incentives. Just your venue.
You own your guest data
Every guest who books through Revasi is your guest. You build your own database, track preferences, manage dietary requirements and communicate directly — without a platform in between.
Built for Asia, not adapted for it
OpenTable’s Asian presence is minimal and its platform was designed for Western dining culture. Revasi was built alongside premium venues in Asia — the service styles, the guest expectations, the operational reality.

OpenTable charges commissions per cover and places your restaurant alongside competitors in a marketplace. Revasi is not a marketplace — guests book directly through your own branded experience. There are no per-cover commission fees, and your guest data belongs to you.
OpenTable typically charges between $1 and $7.50 per cover depending on the booking source and plan. For a high-end restaurant running 50–80 covers per night, that amounts to tens of thousands of dollars annually. Revasi charges a flat subscription — no per-cover fees.
On OpenTable, guest data is primarily owned by the platform and used to market to guests across the network — including directing them to your competitors. With Revasi, all guest data belongs to you. You build your own database and communicate with guests directly.
OpenTable’s booking experience is branded OpenTable throughout — your venue appears as a listing within their marketplace. With Revasi, the entire booking flow is white-labelled to your brand. Guests never see Revasi’s branding.
