    <title>thread Do you need Appointments Plus in order to send a contract with an automated confirmed booking email? in Payments Troubleshooting</title>

    <description>&lt;P&gt;I've set up a contract to send when a client books for the first time, however, when I didn't have square appointments plus it wasn't showing up. Do I have to have appointments plus in order to send contracts automated with the booking confirmation email when a client books and pre-pays?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Great question,&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://community.squareup.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/677073"&gt;@Yourbodypilates&lt;/a&gt;!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;You can automatically send contracts to customers using&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://squareup.com/au/en/appointments/pricing" target="_blank"&gt;Square Appointments Free&lt;/A&gt;.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;If you didn't initially see this option, it’s likely because you had to &lt;A href="https://my.squareup.com/help/au/en/article/7090-create-and-customize-square-contract-templates" target="_blank"&gt;create a contract template&lt;/A&gt; and &lt;A href="https://squareup.com/help/au/en/article/7104-contracts" target="_blank"&gt;enable automated digital forms&lt;/A&gt; first.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;If you now have the ability to send contracts automatically, it sounds like you've completed the following steps:&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Step 1:&amp;nbsp;Create a Contract Template&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;OL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;&lt;FONT size="3"&gt;Sign in to your online&amp;nbsp;&lt;STRONG&gt;Square Dashboard&lt;/STRONG&gt;&amp;nbsp;and navigate to&amp;nbsp;&lt;STRONG&gt;Payments&lt;/STRONG&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;STRONG&gt;Contracts&lt;/STRONG&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;STRONG&gt;Templates&lt;/STRONG&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;STRONG&gt;Create a Template&lt;/STRONG&gt;.&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;&lt;FONT size="3"&gt;Choose to create a new template from scratch or customise one based on a pre-existing Square standard template.&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/OL&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Step 2:&amp;nbsp;Enable Automated Digital Forms&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Once you've created a Contract Template and enabled automated digital forms, form links will be automatically included in appointment email and SMS notifications.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;OL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;&lt;FONT size="3"&gt;Sign in to your online&amp;nbsp;&lt;STRONG&gt;Square Dashboard&lt;/STRONG&gt;&amp;nbsp;and go to&amp;nbsp;&lt;STRONG&gt;Payments&lt;/STRONG&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;STRONG&gt;Appointments&lt;/STRONG&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;STRONG&gt;Settings&lt;/STRONG&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;STRONG&gt;Communications&lt;/STRONG&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;STRONG&gt;Forms&lt;/STRONG&gt;.&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;&lt;FONT size="3"&gt;Select&amp;nbsp;&lt;STRONG&gt;Add a form&lt;/STRONG&gt;&amp;nbsp;to include a template for automatic sending.&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;&lt;FONT size="3"&gt;Decide whether you want forms sent to all customers or only to those who haven’t completed the form before. You can also specify whether this applies to all services or specific ones.&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;&lt;FONT size="3"&gt;Click&amp;nbsp;&lt;STRONG&gt;Save&lt;/STRONG&gt;.&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/OL&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Forms will now be delivered automatically to customers when they book, according to the rules you set. For any appointments created before completing these steps, a contract would not have been sent automatically.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I hope this information helps! If you have any other questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out. &lt;span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":smiling_face_with_smiling_eyes:"&gt;😊&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
