5. Service charges


  • 5.1

    The standard service charges for LemonBooking are provided in the table below. The prices shown are for one system with up to eight facilities (bookable spaces). Additional facilities will be charged at £1 ($1) per facility, per month. Specific details of each pricing plan - including charges for additional systems/facilities - are available here: lemonbooking.com/pricing

    Facilities are counted based on the number of spaces that can be booked at the same time. For example, if you can book a hall and a meeting room separately or together - this counts as two facilities. On the other hand, if a football pitch can be booked as one whole pitch or divided into four smaller pitches, it counts as four facilities.
