Can I set a booking to repeat every other week?

Yes. Alongside weekly repeats, Soopaspace handles fortnightly and alternate-week bookings, and alternate-week availability for when you work every other week.

A calendar for alternate weeks

Quick answer

Soopaspace handles alternate-week bookings as well as a plain weekly repeat: someone who books you every other week, or who works alternate weeks, is set up once and just runs. It also covers alternate-week availability and rotations, with clients able to reschedule themselves within your rules.

Every other week, set up once and left to run

Plenty of work runs on a two-week rhythm: a fortnightly clean, a garden every other Friday, a client who comes when their shifts allow. Plenty of people work that way too. Soopaspace handles both, so an alternate-week client or an alternate-week diary is set up once and simply runs.

1Fortnightly clients

A booking that repeats every two weeks

Alongside a plain weekly repeat, you can set a booking to repeat every two weeks, or any other gap you choose. The next visits are in the diary already, and nobody has to remember whose week it is.

Repeat bookings: a standing weekly or fortnightly slot booked in one go, so regulars keep their time.

2Two clients, one slot

One slot, shared between two fortnightly clients

Two clients who each want every other week can share the same slot, one on the odd weeks and one on the even. Each has their own repeat, so the slot is filled every week without any juggling.

3Your own rota

Work every other week, and your page knows it

If your own hours change from one week to the next, set different working hours for Week A and Week B. Your booking page only offers the times you are working that week, so nobody books you on the Friday you are off.

4Self-service

Clients move a visit themselves, within your rules

A reminder email goes out before every visit, with a link to move or cancel it within the notice you set. A client away for one of their weeks sorts it themselves, and the rest of their repeat carries on.

5Every home

Two weeks between visits, and nothing forgotten

A fortnight is long enough to forget the details. Each client has private notes that only you see, next to the answers they gave when booking and every visit they have had.
