Extend or Modify a Booking
Guests can request a late checkout, add a night, or adjust their stay directly at the kiosk. The host checks availability and either confirms on the spot or routes to you for approval.
Real Booking LogicReal Capabilities
What your guests can
actually do.
No scripted FAQ chatbot. A real-action host that connects to live Stripe, your booking data, and a ride dispatch — and escalates to you when a human is the right answer.
Order Amenities via Stripe QR
Your amenity menu (firewood, breakfast baskets, welcome wine, late checkout fees — whatever you sell) is presented by the host. Guest scans a Stripe-generated QR code and pays on their own phone. Real money, real receipts.
Live Stripe PaymentsRequest a Ride
The kiosk surfaces a ride request flow — guests enter destination and the host coordinates dispatch. Integrated with Boojee Ride where available; otherwise routes the request to you with full guest details.
Ride DispatchConcierge — Voice & Text
Guests ask anything: local restaurants, Wi-Fi password, check-in time, property rules, directions. The host answers from your property's knowledge base. Complex or sensitive requests escalate to you instantly.

Five Settings
One kiosk, every
guest-facing space.
Boojee Front Desk adapts to your environment — the host persona, enabled actions, and menu items are all configured per property. Try each demo below to see how it feels in a real setting.
Setting 01
Rental / Stays
For short-term rental hosts and boutique stays. A personal host who greets guests by property name, surfaces the amenity menu, handles late checkouts, and knows the neighborhood cold. Runs 24/7 so you don't have to pick up at midnight.

How It Works
Up and running
in an afternoon.
No hardware to provision. No developer needed. You configure your property, place a tablet, and guests self-serve from the first moment they arrive.
-
Configure your property in the setup tool
Name your host, write the welcome message, set your amenity menu and prices, choose which actions are enabled. The setup tool generates a launch URL, a scannable QR code, and a printable sign you can display next to the tablet. Takes about ten minutes per location.
Open the setup tool → -
Place any tablet or display and open the URL
Boojee Front Desk runs in a browser — on an iPad, a Fire tablet, a mounted display, or any screen you already have. Open the generated URL, lock the browser to kiosk mode, and you're live. No app installation, no hardware to purchase from us.
Honest note: We do not sell hardware. Any tablet works. The kiosk interface is a mobile-optimised web app — it runs reliably on iOS Safari, Android Chrome, and most Chromium-based browsers. -
Guests self-serve — the host handles the routine
Guests tap, type, or speak to the host. Amenity orders go through Stripe — guests scan a QR on their own phone and pay. Booking extensions check availability in real time. Concierge questions are answered from your property knowledge base. Anything that needs you is flagged immediately.
What's automated vs. host-handled: Amenity payments (Stripe QR) and Wi-Fi info are fully automatic. Booking modifications (adding a night, changing dates) are routed to you for final confirmation — the kiosk initiates the request, you approve. Ride dispatch coordinates with Boojee Ride where available; elsewhere it notifies you. Concierge questions are AI-answered from your configured knowledge base. -
You see everything on the host dashboard
Every guest action — order placed, extension requested, ride dispatched, question asked — appears on your host dashboard in real time. Escalations that need your response are surfaced with full context. You stay in control without being chained to a phone.

The Math
What a staffed front desk
actually costs.
This is a straightforward cost comparison using published labor figures — not a promise of savings. Your actual costs depend on your location, role scope, and staffing model. Read the disclaimer below.
Option A
A staffed front desk
$4,000+
per month — illustrative full-time total employer cost
-
Base wage: median $17.90/hr × 160 hrs = ~$2,864/mo
U.S. BLS OEWS, May 2024, occupation 43-4171 -
Payroll taxes + benefits add ~42% on top of wages
BLS Employer Costs for Employee Compensation, June 2025: wages = 70.2% of total comp - Full-time total: ~$4,068/mo at median — before recruiting, training, or turnover
- Coverage: roughly 8–9 hrs/day, 5 days/wk. Evenings, overnight, weekends, sick days — not covered.
- Part-time (20 hrs/wk): ~$1,800–$2,500/mo total cost — half the hours, still no overnight or weekend coverage
Sources: BLS Occupational Outlook Handbook — Receptionists; BLS OEWS May 2024 overview; BLS Employer Costs for Employee Compensation, June 2025. Figures are national medians — wages vary significantly by region.
Option B
Boojee Front Desk kiosk
$198
per month, per location — Starter plan
- Available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week — including overnight, weekends, and holidays
- No sick days, no turnover, no recruiting cost
- Handles routine requests: amenity orders (Stripe), booking extensions, concierge questions, ride dispatch
- Escalates anything that needs a real human — you stay informed without being on-call
- Does not replace hands-on staff where physical service is required — see disclaimer below
Price is our published Starter plan rate. A one-time setup fee of $298 applies. Stripe processing fees (typically 2.9% + $0.30/transaction) are separate and go to your account.
At the BLS median wage, $198 buys about 11 hours of front-desk staffing.
For the same monthly cost as roughly one business day of a full-time receptionist, the kiosk runs every hour of every day — handling the after-hours guest, the Sunday amenity order, the 2 a.m. Wi-Fi question that would otherwise go unanswered. That is the honest trade-off: it is not a full staff replacement, but for routine guest-facing tasks it extends your coverage window at a fraction of the staffing cost. Whether that trade-off makes sense depends entirely on your business — your judgment, not ours.
Disclaimer & honesty note. The figures above are illustrative comparisons using
U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics published medians (OEWS May 2024; Employer Costs for Employee Compensation, June 2025).
National median wages vary significantly by region, experience, and industry — your actual labor costs may be higher or lower.
The employer cost multiplier (~1.42×) reflects the BLS finding that wages represent approximately 70.2% of total employer compensation.
The Boojee Front Desk kiosk is an always-on concierge layer — not a full replacement for human staff where hands-on, physical, or complex service is needed. It handles routine information, amenity orders via Stripe, booking extension requests, and escalation routing. Situations requiring physical presence, nuanced judgment, or high-touch human service still need a person. We do not guarantee any specific savings — the value depends on your context, guest volume, and what your team currently spends time on.

Common Questions
Honest answers to
real objections.
Before you drop a tablet in your lobby, you should know exactly what you're getting — and what you're not. These are the questions we hear most.
No. Boojee Front Desk runs in a browser on any device you already own — an iPad, Android tablet, Amazon Fire tablet, mounted display, or even a phone. We sell no hardware. You pick the screen; we provide the software.
The setup guide walks you through locking your device into kiosk mode using iOS Guided Access (Settings → Accessibility) or Android Screen Pinning (Settings → Security) — both are built-in, free features that prevent guests from leaving the kiosk app.
No — most properties are live in under an hour. The setup tool walks you through naming your host, writing a welcome message, building your amenity menu, and choosing which actions are enabled. At the end it generates a launch URL, a scannable QR code, and a printable sign for your space.
Enabling kiosk mode on the tablet (iOS Guided Access or Android Screen Pinning) takes a few extra minutes. The guide covers both step by step. It is not a developer task — just a few taps in your device settings.
An active internet connection is required. The AI concierge, amenity orders, booking extension requests, and ride dispatch all connect to our hosted services in real time. If the connection drops, those features will not function until it is restored.
We recommend placing the kiosk on a reliable Wi-Fi network, or connecting the tablet to a dedicated mobile hotspot on a cellular data plan as a backup. This is the honest dependency — we don't hide it.
Kiosk mode prevents that. iOS Guided Access and Android Screen Pinning lock the device to a single app — guests cannot access the home screen, notifications, or any other app while kiosk mode is active. Exiting requires your passcode or biometric.
The kiosk also has an idle-reset timer that returns the display to the welcome screen after a period of inactivity, so one guest's session does not remain visible for the next.
Guests pay on their own phone via a Stripe QR code — not on the shared tablet. When a guest places an amenity order, the kiosk displays a QR code generated by Stripe. The guest scans it with their own phone and enters card details directly in Stripe's secure checkout. Card data goes straight to Stripe — not to the tablet and not to any Boojee system.
Stripe's standard processing fees (typically 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction) apply to each sale and are separate from your monthly plan. We do not take a commission on your amenity sales — what you charge is what you keep, minus Stripe's fee.
No — and we say that plainly on this page. Boojee Front Desk is an always-on concierge layer for self-serve, routine tasks and after-hours coverage. It handles amenity orders, concierge questions, booking extension requests, and ride dispatch.
Situations that require a physical presence, nuanced judgment, or high-touch human service still need a person. Requests the kiosk cannot resolve are escalated to you immediately via the host dashboard. The kiosk extends your coverage window — it does not replace human staff.
Yes — each property is configured independently. You set the host name and persona, welcome message, amenity menu with your own items and prices, and which actions are enabled. The same system adapts to a short-term rental, a boutique shop, a salon or spa, a clinic waiting room, or an office lobby — you choose the setting that fits, and configure it to your context.
Indicative pricing (confirmed in your inquiry response):
- Starter — $198/mo per location + $298 one-time setup fee. Everything you need to go live with one kiosk.
- Portfolio — $498/mo for up to 5 locations + $398 setup fee per location. Centralised dashboard across all properties.
- Enterprise — custom quote for 10+ locations, custom integrations, or white-label. Note it in the form below.
Stripe processing fees (typically 2.9% + $0.30/transaction) are separate and go to your Stripe account — we do not take a commission on your amenity sales. Month-to-month on Portfolio; no long-term contract required.
Most routine requests are automatic; the ones that need you are flagged clearly.
- Amenity payments — fully automatic via Stripe QR. No action required from you; orders appear on your dashboard with confirmation numbers.
- Concierge questions (Wi-Fi, local info, property rules) — answered from your configured knowledge base automatically.
- Booking extensions — the kiosk collects the request and routes it to your host dashboard for your confirmation. The guest is told you will follow up.
- Ride dispatch — coordinates with Boojee Ride where available; otherwise surfaces the request to you with full guest details.
You see every interaction — orders, questions, escalations — on the host dashboard in real time. Nothing is handled behind the scenes without visibility.
