Manchester security bookings, priced, paid and confirmed online.

Codeeo offers security services booking website development Manchester security firms use to sell event staffing, door supervision, static guarding and patrols without a phone call for every job. Promoters booking for a gig night, letting agents covering empty buildings in Ancoats, conference organisers at Manchester Central and warehouse operators in Trafford Park each get a booking path that shows the price, takes payment or account details, and confirms what they bought.

Platform features

Built for the way Manchester clients book security.

Manchester has a calendar that drives security demand: arena tours at Co-op Live and the AO Arena, match days in east Manchester and at Old Trafford, conference seasons at Manchester Central, summer festivals in the parks, and a large student population that fills the city every September. Firms that sell into this calendar need to take bookings early, collect deposits, and know which dates are already stretched.

We design the booking platform around your calendar and your prices. Event organisers get a staffing builder that turns roles and hours into a quote. Venues and offices get instant booking for standard shifts. Property and patrol clients get monthly plans. Every path shows the full price including VAT before payment, and every confirmed booking lands in your admin area with the information your team needs to deploy officers. Your staff update services, dates and rates themselves.

Explain your project
  • Event staffing builder

    Organisers choose roles such as SIA licensed door supervisors, stewards, response teams and supervisors, then set numbers and hours for each. The builder produces a priced estimate, which your team can adjust before the organiser accepts and pays a deposit online. Supervisor ratios can be added automatically as numbers rise.

    Event enquiries arrive structured and priced, not as a vague request for a call.

  • Peak date calendar

    You mark dates when demand is high, such as big concert weekends, freshers' week or Christmas trading, and set capacity, minimum booking sizes or earlier deposit deadlines for them. Clients see availability honestly instead of finding out later that you are full.

    You sell your busiest dates on your terms.

  • Vacant property and void cover

    Letting agents, landlords and developers book inspections, static guards or patrols for empty buildings and conversion sites around Ancoats, Castlefield and Salford Quays. Bookings can roll weekly until the property is let or handed over, with notice periods you define. Agents can add keyholder contacts and alarm details in restricted fields.

    Void cover starts quickly and bills itself each week.

  • Student accommodation contracts

    Operators of purpose built student housing near Oxford Road and the universities book extra cover for move in weekends, exam periods and term start. Contract rates load automatically when they log in, and each building has its own invoice trail. Halls managers can also book patrols between buildings on busy nights.

    Accommodation providers book seasonal peaks without renegotiating every time.

  • Online payments with SCA

    Cards with Strong Customer Authentication, Apple Pay, Google Pay and Open Banking pay by bank for larger deposits. Deposits and balances are tracked per booking, and refunds or credit notes are issued from the admin area with the reason recorded.

    Payments are collected before shifts, and refunds leave a clear trail.

  • Account billing for venues and offices

    Regular clients such as bars in the Northern Quarter, offices in Spinningfields and conference venues book on account with approved credit limits. Purchase order numbers, cost codes and VAT invoices are handled automatically, with monthly statements on request.

    Your best clients book faster and finance stops chasing paperwork.

  • Transparent pricing rules

    Night rates, bank holiday rates, minimum hours and supervisor ratios are shown as separate lines as the client builds a booking. Mandatory charges are never added at the final step, which keeps the site in line with the drip pricing rules in the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024.

    Clients trust the price because nothing appears at the last minute.

  • Booking messages and reminders

    Confirmations, change notices and pre event reminders go by email or SMS. Clients can request changes from their booking page, and your team approves them before the price updates. Marketing emails stay opt in, separate from service messages, as PECR requires.

    Last minute changes are recorded, priced and agreed in writing.

  • Search ready service pages

    Service pages for event security, door supervision, void property cover and patrols, written for Manchester buyers and linked straight to the booking forms. Fast loading, structured data and clean addresses give search engines a clear picture of what you offer and where. Pages for Salford, Trafford and Stockport are only added where you genuinely work there.

    Search visitors can book from the page they land on.

  • Admin area your office runs

    Your coordinators manage services, rates, peak dates, deposit levels and terms from one screen, approve quotes and account applications, and see every booking by date, client or service. Rate changes can be scheduled for a future date, and each booking keeps the price and terms that applied when the client paid.

    Day to day changes happen in your office, not in a developer's queue.

Who this is for

Four Manchester firms that suit a booking platform.

Security services online booking system development Manchester firms come to us for usually starts with one pain: too many enquiries handled by hand during the busiest months. Which booking model to build first depends on where your revenue comes from. These four profiles cover most of the firms we speak to, and each one points to a different first release. If your firm fits more than one, we plan the order of releases around your busiest months.

01

Event security agencies

Agencies that supply stewards and licensed staff to promoters, festivals and venues need a staffing builder, deposits and a clear cancellation policy. Repeat organisers can reuse a past booking and adjust numbers. Your team sees every event in a calendar view, so you know how close each weekend is to your capacity before you accept another job. Organisers also see their own booking history and invoices in one place.

Deposits taken at booking reduce last minute cancellations.

02

Door supervision companies

Bars and clubs across Deansgate, the Northern Quarter and the Gay Village book regular weekend cover and extra staff for special nights. Recurring bookings, account billing and a simple way to add a door supervisor for one night save the manager and your office from weekly phone calls. Groups with several venues manage them all from one login.

Recurring weekend bookings remove most of the Friday phone calls.

03

Property and void security firms

With so much residential and commercial development across the city and Salford, empty buildings need guarding, inspections and alarm response. A rolling weekly booking with automatic invoicing and notice based ending suits this work. Agents get a record of every visit and charge for their own landlord clients. Weekly reports list every visit with times and notes.

Weekly billing keeps cash flowing on long void periods.

04

Guarding contractors with commercial clients

Contractors serving offices, logistics sites in Trafford Park and retail units across the boroughs use the platform for extra cover requests on top of their main contracts. Clients book at contract rates under their account, and your managers approve anything outside the agreed scope before it is confirmed.

Out of scope requests wait for approval, so contract rates stay protected.

Technology

What we build this with.

We build to WCAG 2.2 so clients using assistive technology can book, and your staff run the admin area themselves. Hosting, backups and security updates sit in accounts registered to your company.

Business accounts, monthly plans, pay by bank and scheduling integrations are often added in the same release or the next, depending on which services earn you the most.
