Stay in control of every booking
Some services need a personal touch before confirmation. Review booking requests, approve the right ones, and decline the rest — all from your dashboard or phone.
No credit card required
Not every booking should be automatic
The Problem
Some services require consultation first. A new client wants a complex procedure you need to assess. Someone books a time that conflicts with a private event. Fully automatic booking works for simple services, but some appointments need human judgment.
The Solution
Slotsy lets you require approval for all bookings, for new clients only, or for selected services. Clients submit a booking request with an optional note. You review it, approve or decline, and the client is notified. Full automation where it works, human control where it matters.
How booking approval works
Simple review process for bookings that need your attention
Choose when approval is needed
Pick a mode: no approval, approval for every booking, for new clients only, or for selected services. Everything else confirms automatically.
Review incoming requests
See pending booking requests in your dashboard. View client details, requested time, service, and any notes they've added.
Approve or decline with one click
Accept the booking and it's confirmed instantly. To decline, give a reason; an extra comment is optional. The client is notified either way.
Why booking approval gives you peace of mind
The right balance between automation and control
Screen new clients
Review first-time clients before confirming. Check their request details and notes to ensure the service is right for them.
Keep control of special services
Require approval for services that need preparation or a conversation first, so those slots go to the right bookings.
Mix auto and manual
Standard haircuts auto-confirm. Complex treatments require approval. Configure each service independently.
Respond from anywhere
Open the admin panel on your phone and approve or decline in seconds — clients never wait long.
Simple, transparent pricing
Between paid plans the features are identical. You only pay for team size.
Same features on every paid plan
Start, Team and Business differ in team size, locations, SMS credits, the fee on online payments and support — never in what the product can do. Free is the same product: online payments, the booking widget, reminders, integrations, dashboard analytics, digital products and booking page design all work on it.
