Set booking times and limits

Timing settings turn your availability into the exact times clients can pick, and keep space around meetings so your day doesn't fill up back to back.

Set the timingCopy Anchor Link

1. Open Scheduling › Event Types and open the event type.
2. Select the Scheduling tab.
3. Under When people can book, choose the Schedule, the Timezone and Start times, such as Every 30 minutes.
4. Under Buffer time, add time before or after each meeting.
5. Under Booking limits, set Minimum notice, the Booking window and a Daily limit.
6. Select Save.

You're done when your booking page, opened in a private browser window, shows the times you expect on a day that should be open, and none on a day that should be closed.

What each setting doesCopy Anchor Link

• Schedule: the availability schedule to use. Default follows your default schedule.
• Timezone: used when the schedule doesn't set one. Clients always see times in their own timezone.
• Start times: how far apart the times are, such as 9:00, 9:30, 10:00.
• Buffer time: time to prepare before, or write notes after.
• Minimum notice: stops last-minute bookings.
• Booking window: how many days ahead people can book.
• Daily limit: the most bookings of this type in one day.
• Show spots left: shows clients how many bookings are left each day.
• Book a series at once: one booking creates a set of repeating meetings, such as weekly coaching.

Good to knowCopy Anchor Link

• Changes apply to new bookings straight away. Existing appointments keep their time.
• If no times appear, loosen one rule at a time: usually minimum notice, the booking window, or busy calendar events.
• If times are in the wrong timezone, check the schedule's timezone first, then the event type's.
