Common questions

What is NativeCall?

NativeCall is a phone service for people who don't speak Japanese: a real person calls in Japanese for you (from US$5, completed and reported in writing within 24 hours of payment), or you make the call yourself with live translation in the app.

Can someone call a Japanese restaurant and book it for me?

Yes. NativeCall’s restaurant booking service calls in Japanese on your behalf, requests your table, and sends you the result in writing. Use the restaurant’s official online booking if it meets your needs; our service is for phone reservations and requests that need a conversation with the restaurant.

Do I need to join the call, speak Japanese or install the app?

You do not need to join the call or speak Japanese. Submit your request through the NativeCall app on your phone or the web form on desktop. The separate live translation service is for customers who want to participate in the call themselves.

How much does restaurant booking cost?

Standard restaurant reservations, changes and cancellations cost US$5 per task. Groups of 10 or more cost US$10. Priority handling within 10 hours adds US$5, subject to restaurant hours and availability. A Japanese service number and callback handling each cost US$5 extra, or US$10 for both. Restaurant deposits and cancellation fees are separate.

When do I pay, and what if you cannot secure my booking?

You pay upfront through secure Stripe checkout on the web, or use task credits in the app. If your requested booking is not achieved, NativeCall refunds the full service payment or returns deducted app task credits. A connected call or a written report alone does not count as success. Restaurant deposits and cancellation charges remain subject to the restaurant’s terms.

What information do you need to request a reservation?

Provide the restaurant name and phone number, reservation name, date, time, party size and your contact email. Include acceptable alternative dates or times and any course, budget, seating, child or dietary requests. Tell us if no alternatives work for you.

When will I receive the result, and what if nobody answers?

Within 24 hours of payment, we complete the phone task with human confirmation and send the result in writing. Restaurant opening hours, unanswered calls and booking policies can prevent a successful reservation. If we cannot achieve your requested booking, your service payment is refunded. Check the timing before submitting a same-day request; this is not an immediate booking hotline.

What happens if my preferred time is unavailable?

We discuss the acceptable alternatives you provide and report the restaurant’s response. Say clearly which dates and times you would accept. We cannot create availability or promise unlimited redials, multiple restaurant searches or access to a future booking window within one standard request. If your requested booking cannot be achieved, the service fee is refunded.

What confirmation will I receive?

You receive a written result explaining whether the reservation was secured. For a confirmed booking, we report the agreed date, time, party size and reservation name, together with any seating, course, arrival instructions or other conditions the restaurant provided. If a detail remains unresolved, the report identifies it rather than treating it as confirmed.

Can you ask about allergies, children or specific seats?

Yes. Include dietary restrictions, children’s ages where relevant, seating preferences and special requests in your booking details. We relay them in Japanese and report the restaurant’s answer. Acceptance depends on the restaurant; a requested accommodation is not confirmed until the restaurant agrees.

Can you leave a Japanese contact number and handle callbacks?

Yes. A Japanese service number costs US$5 extra; callback handling costs another US$5, or US$10 for both. Coverage lasts through your mission, up to 60 days. Callback handling includes answering the business, relaying messages to you and calling it back. Answering, support and calling hours are 09:00–24:00 Japan time; we return missed calls. This is a task contact number, not a personal SIM or SMS verification service. Every task already includes a human confirmation or completion call; that call does not require the callback add-on.

Can you change or cancel a reservation?

Yes. Standard changes and cancellations are US$5 per task, including bookings made directly or through another platform when the restaurant accepts the request by phone. Provide the original booking details and the exact change. We confirm any cancellation charge when the restaurant can provide it; our service fee does not cover venue charges or guarantee a deposit refund.

Which restaurant reservations can’t you handle?

We cannot override fully booked tables, introduction-only access, restaurant restrictions on third-party bookings or requirements to use an official booking platform. A listed phone number does not mean the restaurant accepts phone reservations. For parties over 50 or exclusive venue hire, the scope and price need to be confirmed separately.

Who calls the restaurant?

Every task includes a call from a real Japanese-speaking person, at no extra charge. You don't need to join the call; we complete the phone task and send the result in writing within 24 hours of payment.
