Phorest runs on the business's own domain: the booking or the order lands with the business, which stays the merchant of record. An agent that reaches the site can act there.

 Terms

## May an agent use Phorest?

**Partners only.** Phorest's consumer booking terms do not mention bots or automated use; its API is issued on request to a business or its partner developers, and Reserve with Google sends clients to the Phorest booking site.

Read 2026-10-15 from [www.phorest.com/termsandconditions-consumer/](https://www.phorest.com/termsandconditions-consumer/). An agent may act only through the vendor's sanctioned partner integrations; the public terms otherwise restrict automated use. The vendor's own page wins over anything written here; write to hello@directindex.org to correct it. All vendors: [vendor terms for agents](https://directindex.org/vendors/terms). 2 of its sites expose a transaction rail an agent could use (UCP, ACP, MCP or an ordering vendor that takes agent orders); measured, not scored.

 Action test

## Can an agent act on the Phorest page?

A browser opens the direct booking or ordering page and looks for the controls an agent needs (date, time, party size, add to cart, prices); it never fills or submits anything.

| A path exists but an agent would struggle | 1 |
