Head to the Custom information settings page to add custom information to some parts of the booking process (new booking window, confirmation email, registration window). Also choose if inputting a phone number is mandatory or not.

An example of the new user's booking window with custom information set up:


Note shown to users when they book

Optionally add a note to the top of the user booking window. This is the perfect place for reminders, a call to action, or perhaps just a friendly greeting.

Maximum 200 characters!


Content added to the booking confirmation email

Optionally add custom text to the booking confirmation email. When a user creates a booking, the booking confirmation email is sent to their email address automatically.

If a System user creates a booking on behalf of a user, the booking confirmation email is only sent if user notifications are switched on.


More information on the booking confirmation email can be found here: Booking Confirmation Email.


Custom terms and conditions

Optionally add a link to your venue’s terms and conditions. This can be a website page or PDF/ Dropbox link, for example. This could be for your own compliance reasons, or simply to communicate policies and/or responsibilities. 

Users are required to tick to Skedda's software terms and privacy policy when they create their first booking and if they register via an invitation. By adding your venue terms, a user must also stick to yours.

Note: If you want a user to agree to your terms and conditions every time they book (perhaps the terms change periodically/seasonally), there's a nice workaround for this using a custom field instead!


Telephone number requirement

You can choose for the telephone number field to be a required or optional field.


FAQs

Can I make the phone number optional for users? How do I make inputting a phone number not mandatory?

  • Head to the Custom Information settings page, select the relevant checkbox under the User information and requirements section.
