Set up remote booking

Let customers book a time from a link, with rules that keep walk-ins fair.

How booking works

Remote booking turns a queue into a booking page. Customers pick a time from your link and get a confirmation by email and push. They join the live line only when they check in, so walk-ins are never pushed aside by people who are not there yet.

  • Appointments mode suits clinics, salons, and offices. Checked-in bookings are called between walk-ins.
  • Reservations mode suits pitches, courts, and studios. A booking holds the whole block, and walk-in groups use the gaps. See the reservations guide.

Turn it on

  1. 1Open the queue and scroll to the Remote booking card.
  2. 2Tap Enable remote booking.
  3. 3Pick a Business type: Clinic, Salon / barber, or Sports pitch. The preset fills in sensible rules you can change.

The main rules

  • Slot length (min) and Bookings per slot set the size of each time.
  • Booking horizon (days) is how far ahead people can book. The Free plan allows up to 7 days.
  • Minimum notice (min) stops last-minute bookings.
  • Bookable share of slots (%) keeps the rest of the day free for walk-ins.
  • Bookings per walk-in (K) is how many checked-in bookings may be called before the next walk-in.
  • Check-in opens before (min) and Grace after slot time (min) set when a customer can say they arrived, and when a missed booking expires.
  • Free cancellation until (min before): cancelling after this may count as a missed booking.

Tap Show advanced rules for the rest: Active bookings per phone, Allow remote "I'm here", Bookings need my confirmation, Reminder push 24 h before, Allow "running late" notices, and Track no-shows (strikes).

Mode and slot length are locked while bookings exist. Only the business owner can change booking settings.

Close a day or a range

Under Closures, choose a start, an end, and a reason, then tap Close this range. Times inside it disappear from the booking page. Bookings already inside it are cancelled, and each customer gets a notice with a link to book again. Remove reopens the range.
