Is there a way to require clients to book the first available appointment?

McqueenHunter — Sun, 12 Sep 2021 20:44:59 GMT

I was wondering if there is a way to require clients to book appointments at the first available time slot. EX. My business hours are 5pm-9pm. I would like to require clients to have to start with the 5pm one then once that one has been booked then the 6pm slot opens and so on. I have to drive up to my location so it would save me having giant holes in the day.

Hey, did support actually help you? I'm tired of clients scheduling smack dab in the middle of my availability, blocking other clients from scheduling and leaving me with huge money-losing gaps of time. I'm guessing not since there isn't an option in the booking settings. Good thing I pay for this service now and nothing has changed from the free version. 🙄😠
