Places sold against real pots

Someone picks the Thursday pour, takes a place, and the pots still free drop for the next person looking, with nothing held on an unanswered message.

See the pour and the cooling after it

Each sitting shows the tutor, the places gone and the hour after it when the bench is still full of setting candles and cannot take a second group.

Built for you

Built for every kind of candle & soap making business

Soy jar pours

The bread and butter. One jar, one wick and a fragrance each, with the places sold straight against the pots that can hold the melt.

Beeswax dipping

Dipping wants a long run at one steady temperature, so the sitting runs longer and the cap comes down. Set both on the session, once.

Scent blending

Half a sitting can go at the fragrance bench before any wax moves, so the class is booked at its full length, not just the pouring.

Hen dos and birthdays

One booking covers the whole table and pays once, so you know the jar count for the group well before the order goes to your supplier.

Work team evenings

Fourteen from an office against a bench of twelve is the awkward one. The cap catches it while a second pour can still be opened.

Winter course runs

A short run of the same evening each week fills better than scattered dates, and it repeats itself into next month once set up.

School-holiday sittings

Lower wax temperatures, a shorter sitting and a parent taking two places at once. Same bench, its own cap, its own hour of the day.

Bring your own jar

A returning maker pouring into a jar from home still takes a pot and a stool, so it books like any other seat at the bench.

Candles: buy the wax to a real number.

Wax, wicks and jars are bought days ahead, so the useful count is Wednesday’s, not the one standing in the studio on Saturday morning.

  • Options, with Pro

    Run one-off pours, a standing monthly sitting and private group bookings off the same timetable. Work past a standard place, a longer sitting or extra fragrance, sits on a quote before the wax is weighed out.

Schedule

How much wax the day needs

Each session shows the places sold against it, so the volume you melt in the morning is set by a full evening pour session and a soap workshop that is still three short.

The vessel choice arrives with the booking

Someone takes a place and picks the larger vessel as a paid option, so the choice is made and charged before you buy it in rather than negotiated over hot wax.

Get paid

Materials paid for before they are poured

Places are charged as they are taken, so wax, wicks and vessels are bought against a paid head count. A hen party booking the whole bench gets an itemised quote.

Less admin, more bookings

Made for candle & soap making businesses

Melters on, benches laid, count agreed

The day shows each pour, who is running it, the places left and what has been paid, which is the number the wax gets weighed to.

  • The count is already doneConfirmed places are out of availability before the morning, so nobody walks the bench counting jars against a list on the way in.
  • The person on the pot is setHours and assignments keep a sitting shut unless the tutor who can run hot wax that evening is actually rostered to work.
  • The monthly one turns upA standing pour writes itself into next month’s timetable rather than being rebuilt out of last month’s dates by hand.

Last pot taken, the pour is closed

People see the places really left on a sitting. Once the last pot goes the pour closes online, instead of one more being squeezed in on the night.

  • Everyone sees one numberThe count on the page is the same for the person browsing at nine and the group that took four places at ten past.
  • Twelve pots is twelve makersA full pour stays full. The stop protects the wax, the hot plates and how much of you each person gets on the night.
  • The quiet pours stay upSittings with room left sit next to the full ones, so somebody who missed the Saturday can find the Wednesday and take it.

The wax is bought against paid places

Take the sitting fee by card with Pro or record cash and bank transfer on Free. The paid status sits on the place rather than in your head.

  • Card taken with the placeWith Pro the card is taken as the pour is booked, so the place and the money land on the same record instead of a fortnight apart.
  • Internet banking logged by handCash and a transfer go onto the booking by hand on the Free plan, against the right pour and the right night of the week.
  • Stage a private groupSplit a private booking into stages on the record afterwards, something to hold the night and the balance before the jars are ordered. That is Pro.

One app for every booking

Everything you need to run your candle & soap making business.

Online booking

Your own page for each pour, listing the places genuinely open. A pair takes two and the count on that sitting drops for everyone else at once.

Scheduling

Every pour, whoever is running it and the cooling hour after, on one timetable, so the bench is never sold again while candles are still setting.

Capacity that holds

A sitting stops at the pots and stools you actually run. Confirmed places take the number down, and booking shuts on the last wick, never over it.

Email reminders

A confirmation carrying the setting time and what to wear, then a nudge the day before, so a bench laid out for eight is not laid out for five.

Customers

Everyone who has poured with you, what they made, what they paid and when they were last in, on one record instead of four different notebooks.

Estimates

For a private table, itemise the instruction, the wax, the vessels and the fragrance on one quote they read and approve online before you buy.

Team

Each tutor’s real hours and the pours they can run, so a sitting only opens for booking when the person and the bench are both genuinely free.

Payments

Record cash and bank transfer by hand on Free, or take the whole sitting fee by card with Pro, so the wax you weigh out is already paid for.

Common questions.

Set the capacity to the pots and stools you can run at once. Confirmed bookings take that number down and the sitting closes on the last place.

Yes. One booking can hold several places, and every one of them counts against the same sitting, so a group of six is a single record and a single payment.

A standing booking runs weekly or monthly and ends never, on a date, or after a set number of sittings. Each sitting still holds its own places.

The place returns to the sitting immediately, so the number you weigh wax against is the real one rather than a booking nobody intends to keep.

Write the setting time into the confirmation and the reminder. Both go out by email at the times you choose, once you have switched them on.

Paying the whole fee by card is the Pro part. On Free, cash and internet banking are logged by hand and the paid status stays with the place.
