Can I set up a weekly repeat booking?

Yes. A recurring booking repeats on the schedule you set, and clients can reschedule within your rules.

Recurring and repeat bookings

Quick answer

Soopaspace lets you set a repeat booking once and have it run, for the clients who come back on a cycle. It handles weekly and alternate-week bookings, sends an email reminder before each session, and lets clients reschedule themselves within your rules, so you are not rebooking the same people by hand.

Your regulars, booked once and left to run

Most of a self-employed diary is the same faces at the same times. Rebooking each of them by hand, every week, is admin that never ends. In Soopaspace a repeat booking is set once, and clients look after their own changes within your rules. Here is how it works.

1At booking

Clients choose the same time every week as they book

When a client books, they can choose to book the same time every week. That one booking fills the weeks ahead, so a regular does not have to come back to your page to keep their slot.

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

2Your rhythm

Every two weeks, every six, or any gap you set

Not everyone is weekly. You can set up any other repeat yourself: a cut every three weeks, a colour every six, a visit every four. The next appointments are in the diary already.

3One week off

Move one, and the rest stay put

Holidays, a sick child, a clash at work: life moves single weeks. You can move or cancel one appointment in a repeat without touching the rest, so the regular slot carries on as before.

One appointment moved, and every other one in the repeat left as it was.

4Self-service

Clients reschedule themselves, within your rules

A reminder email goes out before every session, with a link to move or cancel it within the notice you set. A client who needs a different day sorts it themselves, without a message to you.

5Who is due back

Every regular’s history, and who has gone quiet

Each client has private notes that only you see, next to every visit they have had. A view of clients who have not been back for a while shows who has dropped out of their rhythm.
