You can use LINE MINI Apps to make reservations, such as at hair salons and restaurants.
To prevent users from forgetting their appointment, LINE MINI Apps can send reminders via LINE message when the appointment time is approaching. Also, if the conditions are met, the user ID obtained from the LINE MINI App can be used to send not only reservation notifications, but also push messages for sales promotions, etc.
* You must obtain the user's consent to collect and utilize behavioral data linked to their LINE account.

End user benefits
1. No need to download the app or register as a member
LINE MINI Apps require no download or installation on your smartphone and no personal information input, so you can make a reservation right away.

A service message will be sent to your chat room as a reminder notification before your visit. You can freely select the notification date. Even if you're busy with work or private life, you won't forget your reservation date.
Service provider benefits
1. Help users remember reservations with reminder notifications
To prevent users from forgetting to come to the store, users can be reminded by LINE message on the day of their visit, the day before their visit, or any other day they wish.
2. Deliver messages based on the operation and store visit history of the user's reservation app
You can record the operation and store visit history of the reservation app by linking them to the user ID. You can use these records to send out useful information to users via LINE as a sales promotion measure, such as increasing the rate of repeat visits.
