Electricity is about €1.70 per booth a month. What really moves the result is the venue's share and how busy the spot is.
The actual product
Two screens, and that is the whole business.
Your customer sees a booking app. You see a control panel. Nothing between them needs a person.
They book from the street.
No app to install, no key to collect, no one to ask. They open the page, see which booths are free near them, choose an hour and pay by card.
- Free and busy hours are live, so double bookings cannot happen.
- Payment clears first. Nothing opens until it does.
- The door code arrives by SMS for exactly the paid window.
You open one page in the morning.
Money earned this month, how many booths are busy right now, and every booking that ran today. That is the whole daily check.
- Works the same on one booth or on forty.
- Locks report in, so you know a door is offline before a customer finds out.
- No shift, no keyholder, no one on site.
Every hour anyone paid for.
Who booked, which booth, how long, how much. Filter by paid, running, finished or cancelled. This is the list your accountant asks for.
- Export it and the month is closed.
- No-shows and refunds are already counted in.
- The venue share is worked out from the same numbers.
The rate is yours to set.
One price for everything, or a different one per booth. Raise it at lunchtime, drop it in the quiet hours, and change it again next week.
- Charge more at peak times and less when the spot is empty.
- Shortest booking, longest booking and the cancellation rule are yours.
- Sell blocks of hours up front to companies nearby.
What runs without you
The software runs the booths.
Taking money, opening the door and handling no-shows usually needs a person. Here the software does all three.
The door opens on payment
The user gets a PIN that works only during the booked time. Where a gateway is fitted, you can also unlock the booth remotely. If the lock loses its connection, the PIN still works.
No slot is held without payment
Booking and payment are saved together in one database transaction. Cards go through Stripe or Przelewy24, or users top up a wallet first. Every entry attempt is logged.
Double booking cannot happen
The rule sits in the database, not in the app. If two people tap the same slot at the same moment, only one gets it.
Sessions close themselves
Sessions start and end on time, reminders go out, no-shows get refunded and old codes are deleted. A low battery or an offline lock raises an alert before a user finds a dead door.
Your name on the door and the app
Run the network on your own domain, with your logo and colours. Your customers never see a supplier's brand, and your data stays separate from other operators.
Revenue and occupancy, live
You see income per site, per booth and per hour of the day. So you know which booth earns and which one should move.
Getting started
From signature to first booking in six weeks.
We pick the spot together
Send us the footfall and the floor plan. We calculate what the site can earn. If the traffic is too low, we tell you before you spend anything.
We build and install
We make the booths in our own plant and ship them from our warehouse in Poland. Installation takes about two hours per booth. No building work, no permits.
You set prices and open
Rates, opening hours and payment methods take one afternoon to set up. The QR code goes on the door and the first booking pays you.
Hardware
We make the booth, so the margin is yours.
We manufacture in our own plant and stock booths in Poland. There is no dealer between you and the factory. Prices below are ex-works, before delivery and installation.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Solo Lite | 1 person | 25 dB | €3,790 | €5–9 |

Straight answers
The questions that decide it.
What happens if a location underperforms?
You move the booth. It is furniture, not construction: no permits, no building work, two hours to install. A booth that earns too little in a lobby often earns well in a food court.
Who pays for the space?
You agree that with the venue, and it decides your payback. Cafés and coworkings often take 10–20% of revenue. Some take nothing, because the booth keeps their customers in the building longer. If you own the space, you pay nothing.
Do I need staff?
No. Booking, payment and access work without a person. Budget about €35 per booth per month for cleaning. Venues that take a revenue share often cover it.
What if the internet or the lock cloud goes down?
The keypad code still opens the door. We built the system so that a failure leaves the user with a working PIN instead of a locked door.
Can I charge more at peak hours?
Yes. You set peak and off-peak rates for each site in the dashboard. Demand peaks at lunchtime and in the early evening. Pricing those hours higher raises revenue without adding booths.
How honest are the numbers in the calculator?
The default values come from EU market research: hardware prices, coworking hourly rates, published occupancy figures and normal venue revenue shares. Replace any input with your own numbers and the model follows.
