Override Calendar Settings and Use The Employee Work Schedule For Online Booking

This option forces clients booking appointments online to use the employee work schedule when looking for availability. This option is useful if you want your employees to be able to book appointments during their off-hours, but you don't want clients to be able to do so.

Request Only

Select this option if you want the booking page to function as a booking request system. This will disable the real-time booking, and not show any requested appointments on the appointment calendar. An email will be generated and sent to the business's email address to alert you of requested appointments.

Only allow booking on the hour

Choosing this option will only allow appointments to be booked on the whole hour (9:00 am, 12:00 pm, etc.)

Require Credit Card on File Before Booking

Holding Credit Cards on File is available in the Preferred version of Envision Cloud, and requires integrated credit card processing. You can upgrade your account on the Account Subscription page.

Opt-Out of 'Reserve With Google' Bookings

Check this box to not allow clients to reserve directly from your business's Google information page.

For example, if 12 is entered into the field, then clients must choose appointment times that are 12 hours in advance of when they are submitting the booking. If left at 0, there will be no lead time and clients may book the very next open time slot.
