Free
14-day welcome boost + 50 starter credits
Boosts (optional)
A boost lists you higher in Recommended, labelled “Promoted” (never in Trending or For you). After the welcome boost, a day costs 10 credits (≈AED 8). Packs from 100 credits for AED 80. At zero credits only boosting stops.
Credits are bought in LastTable Business through the App Store or Google Play, or by card on the web dashboard. Prices exclude VAT. VAT at the standard 5% rate is added to invoices.

LastTable Business
What’s in LastTable Business
Flash Tables you control
Pick the times with free tables, the offer (10–25% off food or a free dessert) and how many tables. It goes live in the app straight away and ends when you say.
Reservations in one list
Today’s bookings with the source of each one. Change time, party or table with double-booking and table-size checks, seat, complete or mark a no-show (with undo), and add walk-ins and phone bookings.
No double bookings
Tables are matched to party size and protected in the database: two guests can never be given the same table at the same time. Holds expire after 5 minutes.
Fees you can see
Next arrivals show which guests are new through LastTable and what each one costs, before they arrive. Nothing is charged for a booking that isn’t completed.
The AI growth manager, if you want it
It spots quiet slots and proposes Flash Tables; you approve every one. Free to hire, 5 credits (≈AED 4) only per returning diner it brings back who completes their visit.
Dubai pilot
Become a pilot restaurant
We are opening the Dubai pilot to a small number of restaurants. Set your restaurant up yourself in LastTable Business, or leave your details and we set up your tables and hours with you. Either way, guests you already know never cost a fee, and your venue goes live only when you are ready.

Questions restaurants ask
How much does LastTable cost a restaurant?
There is no monthly fee during the pilot. Paid dashboard plans may follow after the pilot; their prices have not been set. Restaurants pay a customer acquisition fee of AED 25 (pilot placeholder) only when a diner who is new to that restaurant books through LastTable and completes the visit. Repeat diners, cancellations, no-shows, walk-ins, phone bookings the restaurant adds itself, and guests the restaurant already knew are free.
When exactly is the fee charged?
Only when the booking is completed (the diner came and was seated), the diner booked through the LastTable app, and they are new to your restaurant. A diner counts as new once per restaurant, so every later visit is free.
Which diners never cost a fee?
Repeat diners, cancellations and no-shows, walk-ins and phone bookings you add in the dashboard, and guests on the list you import before you start (we match them by phone number).
Do I have to buy credits?
No. Credits (CUs) are optional and only pay for boosts and the growth manager. You start with 50 free CUs and a 14-day welcome boost. If your balance reaches zero, only boosting stops; bookings keep coming as normal.
Who decides the offers?
You do. You choose the times, the discount (10–25% off food) or a free dessert, and how many tables. The growth manager only proposes; nothing goes live until you approve it, unless you turn on auto-approval for small proposals under a cap you set.
How is this different from per-cover booking fees?
Some booking platforms charge for every seated cover, including regulars who would have come anyway, often alongside a monthly subscription. LastTable charges only for a diner's first completed visit to your restaurant, with no monthly fee during the pilot.
