Repeat bookings

For the clients who come back on a rhythm — every other Tuesday, the third Monday of the month, the 10th — you can book the run at once instead of rebooking each time.

Repeat bookings are a paid feature

They need Solo, Team, or your free trial — on Free, setting one up is refused. See Billing & plans.

You can still book a regular client repeatedly on any plan — it’s just one at a time. On Calendar, tap the empty time you want (Day or Week view) to open Add appointment, pick the Service, confirm the Date and Time, and enter the client. Repeat for each date you want. What the paid feature adds is doing the whole run in one go, skipping conflicts automatically, sending a single email listing every date, and topping the series up as time passes.

Setting one up

Open the client from Clients, go to the Appointments tab, and choose Set up repeat booking. (The button appears once you have at least one active service.)

Pick the Service and how it Repeats:

• Every week
• Every other week
• Same date each month — taken from the date of the first appointment
• A certain weekday each month — first, second, third, fourth or last

Then set the First appointment date and Time, and choose See the dates.

You see the dates before anything is booked

Slot’d shows the next six dates it will book, in your business timezone, and marks any that run into something: Busy for an existing appointment, or You are closed for a date in your Date overrides — including a day with a Google Calendar event on it.

Nothing that conflicts gets booked. Those dates are skipped and the rest go ahead. If you’d rather keep them all, choose Change, move the day or time, and look again. When you’re happy, choose Book to confirm.

Repeat bookings aren’t limited to your weekly hours — the time you pick is the time that’s booked.

What your client gets

One email listing the dates, when you set the series up — not one message per appointment. It’s sent when the client has an email address and your email notifications are on. After that, each appointment sends its normal reminders. Appointments added later (see below) don’t send a new confirmation; they just remind as usual.

No payment is taken at booking. Repeat bookings are for clients you already know, so you record payment per visit — open the appointment and choose Mark as paid. See Managing bookings.

Keeping it going

Slot’d books six appointments at a time. Each morning it checks your series, and when the last booked date is about six weeks away, it books the next six — again skipping anything that conflicts. The schedule never runs out on its own.

Appointments in a series show Part of a recurring series when you open them on your calendar.

Changing or stopping

• One appointment: cancel or reschedule it from your calendar like any other. The rest of the series is unaffected, and cancelling one doesn’t stop new ones being added.
• The whole series: there isn’t a button to end a series in the dashboard yet. To stop one, contact support. Ending a series stops new appointments being added; appointments already on your calendar stay — your client is expecting those. Cancel any you want gone individually.

If you delete the service or the client, the series stops adding appointments on its own. Appointments already booked stay.

Months that don’t have the date

If you pick the 31st, months with 30 days or fewer are skipped, not moved. An appointment nobody agreed to is worse than no appointment, so Slot’d never quietly shifts one to a different day.
