The Developer API for restaurants
A restaurant needs guests to come back and booked guests to turn up. That means friendly emails at the right moment, and confirmations and reminders that go out the instant a table is booked.
- Reminders that go out on time
- Reasons for regulars to return
- One address for bookings
With the Developer API
Booking confirmations straight from your booking system
- Confirm the moment a table is booked
Your booking system calls `POST /emails` with the guest's details; a published template keeps the layout out of your code.
How it works - Reminders scheduled ahead
Schedule the reminder with `scheduled_at` when the booking is made, and cancel it if the guest cancels.
How it works - Bounces back to the booking
An `email.bounced` webhook tells your system the guest's address is wrong, so staff can call instead.

Where the other products fit
iResendly Marketing
Emails for regulars that send themselves
- Birthday automations. Import a birthday column with your guest list and a birthday email goes out each year on its own.
- Welcome for new sign-ups. When someone joins your list, a welcome sequence can send your menu and opening hours, then a follow-up a few days later.
- Menus and events on social too. Post the new menu or a special night to Instagram and Facebook from the same account, scheduled in your time zone.
iResendly Mail
A reservations@ address the team actually reads
- reservations@ as an alias. Add it to the front-of-house mailbox for free, and forward that mailbox's new mail to one outside address if you need to.
- Closed-day auto-reply. Set dates for a holiday closure and anyone who writes in gets a reply with your reopening date.
- Webmail anywhere. Staff read and answer mail in the browser, and can search by sender, subject or unread.
