FAQ: Hold time for a Pending Reservation
Here's some information about Pending Reservations and how long they are held in the system.
During the checkout process, when a table is selected, the system temporarily marks it as a "Pending Reservation." If two guests try to reserve the same table simultaneously, only one will succeed, and the other will be notified to select a different table. If a reservation is not completed, the table automatically becomes available again after 8 minutes.
