Public link
Copy or open this service’s Service booking page and your Business page (which lists every service). The link opens once the service and your booking page are published. See Your Booking Page.Troubleshooting / Technical Notes
- Customers see no times. Check the service is Published, a person is assigned, and that person has working hours — see Team, Locations & Calendar. Also check Minimum notice and Book up to.
- A time I expected isn’t offered. It may fall outside working hours, collide with another booking or its buffer, or be blocked on a linked Google Calendar.
- People can book more than the seats. They can’t — a start is offered until its seats run out, and a group needs that many free seats.
- Customers can’t cancel. Check Customers can cancel is on, and the cut-off hasn’t passed.
- A reminder wasn’t sent. Reminders go only to confirmed bookings that haven’t started — one waiting for approval is reminded after you approve it. The customer also needs to have given an email address, and Send a reminder must be on. Each booking is reminded at most once.
- “You have unsaved changes.” Save the tab, or Discard to leave.
