Outside France

Using Voxtya outside France

Voxtya is a French company, but the tool works the same way for a café in Brussels, a salon in Luxembourg or a restaurant in Geneva. Here is what to expect if you compare Voxtya with Shopify from outside France or for English-speaking customers.

The app in English

Your dashboard is available in English and in French, and you can switch language at any time. Your team can work in the language they are most comfortable with.

Prices in euros

Every service costs €29 a month, two linked services €49 and the full Suite €119, billed in euros by card. No setup fee and no fee per booking or per cover.

Google reviews, wherever you are

Review collection and replies work with your Google Business Profile, in any country. When a review is written in English, the reply is written in English too, then published automatically or after you read it, as you choose.

A website in English and French

With the Website service, your site is translated automatically into English and French, so visitors, tourists and expats can read your menu, hours and services.

Bookings on Paris time

Booking slots and cancellation deadlines run on Paris time (CET/CEST), like Belgium, Luxembourg, Switzerland and most of central Europe. In Ireland or the UK, Paris is one hour ahead.

A real person to talk to

Questions go to a real person, in English or in French, who replies within 24 hours on working days, often the same day. You can start with the 30-day free trial (cancel in 1 click).

Shopify or Voxtya?
Shopify if your business is selling products online. Voxtya if you welcome customers in person and want to be found, reassure people with your Google reviews and fill your tables or calendar. Both can coexist: the store on Shopify, your local presence with Voxtya.
