HeyReserve: Airbnb for Municipalities

The latest tool in the HeyGov suite of tools is called HeyReserve. This one has been a dream of the HeyGov team and we’re very excited to see it take flight!

This tool enables towns, cities and villages of all sizes, to earn revenue for the community by showcasing and renting out the town hall, gazebo, pavilion or community center.

The Town Hall is the heart of your community. It's where it's all going down! It's where events take place, decisions are made and celebrations are held.

These facilities can help support projects in the community when it’s rented out. It can be used for birthdays, graduations, Gran’s 80th party or just to BBQ and hang out with friends. However, all Clerks and their teams are awesome, but they only have two hands! And, renting out municipal facilities may move down the list of daily to-do’s, to make time for the more urgent tasks.

HeyReserve is an easy-to-use booking tool that enables constituents to view available time slots, make bookings online and accept deposits.

Seriously streamlined reservations

Each facility has its booking link.
Able to view the amenities of each venue, the cost to rent, and the check-in/out procedures
Different time slots available to rent

People can make a booking online. A manager needs to approve the rental.
People can pay the booking fee and the deposit with a credit card.

And, to answer the question we know you're going to ask: the payment processing fee is covered by the resident, not the city!
