Reservation Services

Restaurant Reservations

ResDiary provides the Reservation Services to you for the purpose of assisting you in securing dining reservations at participating third-party restaurants or other venues (each, a “Restaurant”). In response to your online request for a Restaurant reservation through the ResDiary Site or ResDiary Application, ResDiary directly contacts the Restaurant’s computerised database of reservations. The availability of reservations is determined at the time of your query. When a reservation is made by you through the ResDiary Site or ResDiary Application, the Restaurant may provide confirmation of the reservation to you by email or SMS via ResDiary systems. By using the Reservation Services, you agree to receive reservation confirmations by email or SMS after booking a reservation through the Reservation Services.

‘No-Show’ Policy

ResDiary is committed to providing superior quality services to Users and Restaurants. Each Restaurant will apply its own policy regarding any ‘no-show’ or cancellation and ResDiary accepts no responsibility or liability for any such Restaurant policy or its application. The User should check the relevant Restaurant’s terms and conditions as well as the terms of any email or other confirmation communications carefully. In order to use the Reservation Services for these Restaurants, you may be asked to provide valid debit or credit card information, and you may be required to cancel your reservation in accordance with the Restaurant’s cancellation policy. ResDiary may use debit or credit card information as described in our privacy policy which will be collected securely via one of our third party payment gateway partners, but ResDiary shall have no liability for any charges made to the debit or credit card account for any failure to cancel your reservation in accordance with any Restaurant’s cancellation policy.

Usage Guidelines

You agree to use the Reservation Services only to book reservations at Restaurants and then honour those reservations by arriving at the Restaurant(s) on time and ordering and paying for meals. You further agree not to book more than one (1) reservation for your personal use during any one meal time. Resale or attempted resale of reservations is prohibited, and is grounds for, among other things, cancellation of your reservations or termination of your access to the Services.
