Dynamic Pricing for Every Hour You're Open

A rate matrix that knows Saturday 7pm from Tuesday 2pm — and prices both without you touching anything.

Birdie's pricing engine sets bay rates on a day-group by time-block matrix — weekday mornings, weekend primes, holidays — with member rates layered on top per tier. Rates apply themselves as the calendar moves, so no hour is mispriced and no rate sheet gets re-typed by hand.

  • One price for every hour.

    A flat rate underprices Saturday 7pm and overprices Tuesday 2pm. The weekend leaves money on the table while weekdays sit empty at a rate nobody bites on.

  • You are the pricing engine.

    Season change? Holiday week? You open the portal and re-type every rate by hand — so the prices that should move constantly never move at all.

  • Member pricing is duct tape.

    Discount codes, honor-system rates, a second rate sheet taped to the desk. Members should just see their price everywhere, automatically.

How the rate matrix works

Rates live in a grid of day groups (weekday, weekend, holiday) by time blocks (morning, afternoon, prime). Set the matrix once and every hour on the tee sheet prices itself — the calendar does the editing.

  • Day groups × time blocks, your definitions
  • Every booking pulls its rate automatically
  • Change a cell, not fifty listings

Member rates, layered — not forked

Member pricing is an overlay on the same matrix, not a second system. Each tier sees its own rate at booking, online and at the desk, with no codes to type and no honor system to police.

  • Per-tier overlays on the same grid
  • Applied automatically at booking
  • No promo codes, no second rate sheet

Seasons and holidays without re-typing

Point a date range at a day group — winter prime, holiday weeks, simulator season — and the matrix reprices those dates on schedule. Next season is a calendar entry, not an afternoon of data entry.

  • Date-range overrides on the matrix
  • Holiday day-group support
  • Rates flip on schedule, not by memory

Rules that follow the rate

Deposits, minimum durations, and booking windows can differ by rate — prime Saturday can require a deposit while Tuesday afternoon stays friction-free. Pricing and policy move together.

  • Per-rate deposit policy
  • Prime-time minimum durations
  • Booking windows by block

Common Questions

1 Can weekends and weekdays have different rates?

Yes — that is the core of the matrix. Day groups (weekday, weekend, holiday, or your own) each carry their own time-block rates, so Saturday prime and Tuesday afternoon are never the same number.

2 Do member rates apply automatically?

Yes. Members log in and see their tier’s rate everywhere — online booking, the kiosk, the front desk. No codes, no manual discounts, no policing.

3 Can I run a happy-hour or off-peak special?

Yes — define an off-peak time block (say, weekday 12–4pm) and give it its own rate. It shows on the booking page automatically, which is how operators fill the Tuesday-2pm hole.

4 What happens to existing bookings when rates change?

Booked sessions keep the price they were booked at. Rate changes apply to new bookings from the moment you save — no surprise charges, no honor-the-old-price disputes.
