RESTAURANT GUEST DATA

Restaurant guest data from the tables you already serve

A six-person table should create more than one reservation name and one payment record. TabSettle gives every paying diner the chance to become an identified, permissioned guest.

THE PROBLEM

You serve thousands. You can identify a few.

Reservations name one person

The booking identifies whoever made it. The other five guests at the table stay anonymous.

Payments name one card

A traditional check closes with one cardholder. The relationship ends when the receipt prints.

Third parties own the rest

Delivery apps, review sites, and reservation platforms hold the guest record — and charge you to reach your own guests again.

HOW IT WORKS

From anonymous diner to first-party guest profile

Every guest checks out

Each diner settles their own share through TabSettle — a direct interaction with every paying guest at the table.

Identity, established

Guest identity is created at checkout, separate from any marketing permission.

Permission, asked

Guests choose whether to receive offers by text, email, or both. Affirmative, never pre-selected.

Behavior, connected

Visits, items, spend, recency, and redemptions attach to the guest profile over time.

FAQ

Common questions

What counts as first-party guest data?

Information a guest shares directly with your restaurant through TabSettle: contact details, marketing permission, visit history, items, spend, and offer redemptions. It belongs to the restaurant, not to a third-party platform.

Is every diner added to our marketing list?

No. Identity and marketing consent are separate. A guest becomes a marketing subscriber only after an affirmative opt-in that is never pre-selected, and they can change preferences or opt out at any time.

What is zero-party data, and does TabSettle collect it?

Zero-party data is information guests intentionally volunteer about themselves — birthdays, favorite dishes, dietary or offer preferences. TabSettle can combine those preferences with first-party transaction behavior when guests choose to share them.

Can we export guest data or push it into our CRM?

Yes. TabSettle exposes APIs, webhooks, and exports so guest and checkout signals can flow into your CRM, loyalty platform, or data warehouse.

How is guest data protected?

Payment details are handled by Stripe and never stored on restaurant systems. Built-in consent, preference, and opt-out controls are designed to support responsible SMS and email marketing, and TabSettle does not sell guest data.
