Scan & register
The guest scans a QR code and fills out parent and child info from their own phone.
Check in at the kiosk
A quick tap at the front-desk kiosk starts the visit — no separate hardware to buy.
Billed automatically
The hourly charge is computed the moment they check out, from your own rate card.
Trusted by camps, preschools & play centers
Sound familiar?
Bloomily runs the whole walk-in loop — registration, check-in, hourly billing, and payment — in one system.
Everything a play center needs
Walk-In Registration
Guests register from their phone with a QR code — parent info, child info, and a signed waiver, done before they reach the front desk.
Kiosk Check-In/Out
The front-desk kiosk handles check-in and check-out on the tablet you already have — no separate hardware to buy.
To-the-Minute Hourly Billing
The charge is computed automatically at check-out from your own age-tiered rates, rounded exactly the way you configure it.
Card-on-File Autopay
Charge on-site at pickup, let autopay sweep it overnight, or let guests pay from their own portal — your choice, per family.
Same-Day Invoices
Every visit closes into a real invoice the same day, so nothing gets lost between a walk-in and a payment.
Billing Exceptions Dashboard
See every visit that didn’t charge cleanly — missing card, failed charge, manual override — in one queue instead of hunting through reports.
What you get with Bloomily
Frequently Asked Questions
How does play center billing work?
You set age-tiered hourly rates once. When a family checks out at the kiosk, Bloomily computes the charge automatically from the time they were checked in — no manual math, no end-of-day reconciliation.
Do guests need to sign up in advance?
No — a family can register on their phone via QR code when they walk in: parent info, child info, and a signed waiver, then check in right away. Returning guests check in faster since their info is already on file.
How do I get paid?
Three ways, and you’re not locked into one: charge the card on file at pickup, let autopay collect it overnight, or let the family pay from their own portal. Every visit closes into a same-day invoice either way.
What do families pay in processing fees?
Parents pay directly through the app: 3.5% on cards (plus $0.30 on transactions under $60), or 1.0% on ACH bank transfer ($0.50 minimum, $8 max). Processing fees are passed through from Stripe at cost — Bloomily doesn’t mark them up.
Is this the same system as Bloomily’s drop-in center software?
Yes — the walk-in registration, kiosk check-in, and hourly billing are the same underlying tools, tuned for open-play vocabulary instead of childcare drop-in vocabulary.
