User Manual

This guide covers two roles: customers using a business’s public booking page, and business owners and team members signed in to the dashboard.

Part A — Booking as a customer (public page)

Section titled “Part A — Booking as a customer (public page)”

Customers do not create a BOOKIN login. You book through the link, QR code, or embedded widget the business shares.

  1. Open the business’s booking page — usually its own address, like your-business.bookin.biz, or a custom domain of its own.
  2. Service — pick what you want to book.
  3. Date & Time — choose from the available slots.
  4. Your Info — name and contact details.
  5. Verify Email — enter the six-digit code sent to your inbox. It expires after 10 minutes.
  6. Confirm — review and submit.

Some businesses add extra questions of their own just before the final step.

  • Status: new bookings usually start pending until the business confirms them. Your first email is “Booking Request Received” — confirmation follows separately. Statuses you may see: Pending, Confirmed, Completed, Cancelled, No Show.
  • Check status: use the business’s booking status page with your booking code (format ABC-123-XYZ). Links in your emails open it with the code already filled in.
  • Cancelling: if your booking is confirmed, cancel it yourself with the Cancel Booking button on that page. The exception is bookings made without an email address — for those, contact the business.
  • Rescheduling: not self-service. Cancel and rebook, or contact the business.
  • Reminders: typically a week before, a day before, and three hours before.
  • Check spam for verification and confirmation emails.
  • Keep your booking code somewhere safe.
  • If no times appear, try other dates or another service — availability is set by the business.

Part B — Running your business (dashboard)

Section titled “Part B — Running your business (dashboard)”

Sign in at bookin.biz with the account your organization uses. Every sign-in lands on the Calendar.

There’s no setup wizard. Signing up creates your organization, business details, booking subdomain and a starting schedule automatically, and the Calendar shows a “Finish setting up your business” checklist: complete your business profile, confirm your business hours, confirm your booking slots, add a service.

SettingsTeam, general, business, notifications, notification providers, domains, booking form, security

What you see depends on your role. Media, Billing and Settings are permission-gated; a member gets read-only access to the core screens plus Security.

BOOKIN has exactly three roles:

  • Owner — everything, including billing and removing team members.
  • Admin — most things, but not billing or pricing.
  • Member — read-only on bookings, dashboard, slots and business hours.
  • Settings → Notifications controls which categories you receive: System, Appointment, Marketing.
  • Settings → Notification Providers controls the channels: dashboard, email, Slack, Discord and LINE. Everything except dashboard needs Starter or above.
  • The bell in the header shows in-app activity.

Under Settings → Security you can change your password and manage two-factor authentication and passkeys. This tab is available to every role.

If you signed up with Google, set a password first — 2FA can’t be enabled without one.

For product or billing issues, use the contact options on bookin.biz.
