Venue & facility rental, with invoicing.
Renting out your hall and rooms is steady income for the cause — so make it effortless. Take bookings online and the nonprofit booking system raises a clear invoice each time you approve, including your nonprofit's logo and your own sequential numbers. Renters pay from the link on the invoice; no LemonBooking account required.
- Different rates per group — Resident, Nonprofit, Business
- sales tax details only when needed — nothing to switch off if you're not registered
- Add payment links so renters can pay online
- Friendly automated reminders for overdue invoices

Fellow nonprofits pay less; businesses subsidise the cause.
Put commercial renters on a higher rate and let that income subsidise the community groups you exist to help. Set up booking groups (Resident, Nonprofit, Business) once and the right price applies every time — no discount spreadsheet, and each renter only sees their own rate.

Frequently asked questions
Anything we haven't covered, drop us a line.
Is LemonBooking suitable for a small, volunteer-run nonprofit?
Yes. LemonBooking is built for small nonprofits, foundations and community organizations with no IT staff. We do the initial setup with you, multi-user roles let volunteers and board members share the work safely, and every change is logged so there's a clear audit trail.
Can we send nonprofit-friendly invoices if we're not sales tax-registered?
Yes. Invoices carry your nonprofit's logo and your own sequential numbers, and you can show your registered nonprofit number. If you're not sales tax-registered, sales tax simply doesn't appear — nothing to switch off.
Can supporters and renters pay us online?
Yes. Connect SumUp, Stripe, Stripe or PayPal and people pay from a link on their invoice or ticket — no LemonBooking account needed. Card fees go to the provider; we don't add anything on top.
Is this a good not for profit booking system?
It's designed for nonprofits. You get venue rental, invoicing, event ticketing, memberships and a website editor in one place, with nonprofit, resident and business booking groups so the right rate applies automatically — no per-feature add-ons to budget for.
Do you offer a free trial?
Yes — 30 days, no card required. Start your free trial and we'll help you import your existing diary so you're not starting from a blank screen.
Can volunteers run it from their phones?
Yes — LemonBooking runs in any web browser, with no app for volunteers to download. The calendar, booking forms, ticketing and admin all work on a phone, tablet or laptop, so a board member or volunteer can approve a booking or check ticket sales on the move. Drop a shortcut on a board member's phone and the bookings are a tap away at the next meeting.
Ready to try LemonBooking at your nonprofit?
