# Customizing your booking widget

Your booking widget is an extension of your online brand identity and should provide a seamless experience for your customers from the moment they land on your website to the moment they've made their reservations.

### Accessing your widget configuration

You can access your widget settings page by navigating to ***Integrations > Widget***:

![Screenshot 2026-08-03 at 16.39.22](https://restaurant.eatapp.co/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202026-08-03%20at%2016.39.22.png?width=468&height=675&name=Screenshot%202026-08-03%20at%2016.39.22.png)

### Setup

![Screenshot 2026-08-03 at 17.23.48](https://restaurant.eatapp.co/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202026-08-03%20at%2017.23.48.png?width=670&height=434&name=Screenshot%202026-08-03%20at%2017.23.48.png)

Setup is your control room for booking rules — and your strongest defense against no-shows.

- Choose how to display your seating options
- Select the widget language
- Add a Google Analytics key and confirmation redirect to measure and route conversions.
- Turn on add-to-calendar links to cut down on forgotten reservations.
- Filter time slots to the guest's chosen event, package, or seating so they can't request what you can't serve.
- Offer the WhatsApp booking route for guests who'd rather message than fill in a form.

### Form fields

![Screenshot 2026-08-03 at 16.43.17](https://restaurant.eatapp.co/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202026-08-03%20at%2016.43.17.png?width=670&height=400&name=Screenshot%202026-08-03%20at%2016.43.17.png)

The value here is collecting exactly the data you will use while keeping the form fast to complete.

- Keep the form short; every extra field lowers completion.
- Make phone or email required so you can always send confirmations and reminders.
- Collect birthdays and anniversaries to build guest profiles for later outreach.
- Keep the special-request field open so allergies and occasions surface before arrival.

### Look & feel

![Screenshot 2026-08-03 at 16.52.49](https://restaurant.eatapp.co/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202026-08-03%20at%2016.52.49.png?width=670&height=413&name=Screenshot%202026-08-03%20at%2016.52.49.png)

This page makes the widget feel like your restaurant, which builds the trust that gets bookings finished.

- Match theme, colors, font, and logo to your website for a seamless, on-brand flow.
- Use custom CSS if you want precise, pixel-level control.
- Hide the "Powered by Eat" mark for a fully white-labeled experience.

### Language

![Screenshot 2026-07-22 at 15.17.22](https://restaurant.eatapp.co/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202026-07-22%20at%2015.17.22.png?width=670&height=385&name=Screenshot%202026-07-22%20at%2015.17.22.png)

The core value is meeting guests in their own language and setting clear expectations at every step.

- Translate the full journey: search, results, booking form, and confirmation per language.
- Reword payment and pre-authorization buttons so guests know what's happening before they commit.
- Match the tone to your brand rather than settling for the defaults.

### Table selection

![Screenshot 2026-07-22 at 15.18.33](https://restaurant.eatapp.co/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202026-07-22%20at%2015.18.33.png?width=670&height=307&name=Screenshot%202026-07-22%20at%2015.18.33.png)

Letting guests choose their seat raises satisfaction and makes your floor easier to run.

- Enable table selection so bookings arrive already mapped to specific seats.
- Hide private rooms or protected sections by limiting which floors are visible.
- Turn on table-combining to seat larger parties automatically.
- Leave "skip" available for guests who don't mind where they sit.

### Add to your website

![Screenshot 2026-07-22 at 15.19.06](https://restaurant.eatapp.co/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202026-07-22%20at%2015.19.06.png?width=670&height=334&name=Screenshot%202026-07-22%20at%2015.19.06.png)

The goal here is to capture bookings directly from your own site.

- Use the popup embed for the most integrated, on-brand experience.
- Use the hosted widget link for a lighter, less technical setup.
- Either way, keep bookings direct rather than routing guests to a marketplace.
