How to add a booking manually
To add a booking manually, fill out the booking page of your service on behalf of the customer. This ensures that all involved parties will receive the proper notifications.
Steps:
-
Open your service's booking page — Find the booking link for your service in the admin interface under Services → your service → Booking page link.
-
Fill in the customer's details — Enter the customer's name, email, and any other required fields as if you were the customer.
-
Select the time slot — Choose the date and time the customer wants.
-
Complete the booking — Submit the form. The system will treat this as a standard booking and trigger all configured notifications.
This approach ensures:
- The customer receives a booking confirmation by email or SMS (depending on your notification settings).
- The booking appears in your admin dashboard alongside all other bookings.
- Calendar sync (if enabled) updates automatically.
- Any payment or deposit flow is triggered as configured.
Notification and confirmation considerations
If your service requires additional confirmation by customers (via email or SMS), contact support@timerise.io or use the in-app chat to request that automatic confirmation be enabled for your service. This switches bookings to confirmed status immediately upon submission, without requiring a customer confirmation click.
Notes
- If you need to block time on a team member's calendar without a real customer booking, consider using the availability settings to mark that period as unavailable instead.
