Scheduling & Bookings

Nuvbook's scheduling system is designed to eliminate back-and-forth and keep your calendar running smoothly and automatically.

4.1 How Client Booking Works

Once your booking page is live, clients can:

Visit your booking page and browse your services.
Select a service, choose an available time slot, and confirm their appointment.
Pay a deposit or full amount online at the time of booking (if enabled).
Receive an automatic confirmation and reminder via email or SMS.

4.2 24/7 Self-Scheduling

Clients can book appointments at any time, even outside business hours. You don't need to be available or involved in the booking process. Nuvbook handles it all automatically.

4.3 Managing Your Calendar

From your Bookings dashboard you can:

View upcoming appointments in a comfortable layout by day, month, or year.
Manually add or edit appointments on behalf of clients.
Cancel or reschedule appointments as needed.
See which staff member is assigned to each booking.

4.4 Conflict-Free Scheduling

Nuvbook automatically prevents double bookings. When this feature is turned on, when a time slot is taken, it's instantly removed from your availability so no two clients can book the same slot.

4.5 Waitlist Bookings

A waitlist feature to automatically fill cancelled slots:

Clients will be able to join a waitlist for fully booked time slots.
When a cancellation occurs, the next waitlisted client would be notified automatically.
You will be able to manage and view the waitlist from your Bookings dashboard.

This wonderful feature is coming soon!

4.6 Multi-Service Bookings

Allow clients to book more than one service in a single appointment. Nuvbook calculates the combined duration and adjusts your availability accordingly with no manual effort required from you.

4.7 Booking Page

Have a preview of what your booking page on its own would look like to your clients.
