Packages in Funbutler

Packages are the top-level products in the Funbutler booking system and represent what your customers select when making a reservation. A package defines the full experience—for example:

  • Kids Birthday Party

  • Two-Game Bowling Session

  • Laser Tag + Arcade Combo

Packages allow you to group activities into a single bookable offering, making it easy for customers to understand what they’re getting and for the system to manage resources.


How Packages Work

Each package is made up of one or multiple activities. These activities tell the system:

  1. Which resource to allocate (e.g., Bowling Lane 3)

  2. At what time the activity should start

  3. How long each part of the package lasts

Activities act as the internal structure that ensures bookings are automatically assigned to the correct lanes, rooms, or courts without manual intervention.


Example Package Structure

Example 1: Bowling Birthday Party

  • Activity : 4x 15 minutes of bowling → allocates a lane

  • Activity: 2x 15 minutes in the party room → allocates the party room

Example 2: Laser Tag Session

  • Activity 1: 15-minute briefing room → allocates briefing area

  • Activity 2: 20-minute game session → allocates arena


Package Pricing Options

Funbutler supports two types of pricing models:

Pricing Model

How It Works

Best For

Fixed Price

One price for the entire booking.

Packages with predictable costs (e.g., room rental, bowling lane rental).

Per-Person Price

Price is multiplied by the number of guests.

Activities where participation affects cost (e.g., food, equipment, game sessions).

This flexibility allows you to tailor your offering to different event types and business models.


Why Packages Matter

  • They define what customers see and book.

  • They combine multiple activities into a single experience.

  • They ensure Funbutler knows where to place the booking and when.

  • They allow powerful pricing options and customization.
