What is Package Booking?
Package Booking lets hosts offer multiple time slots as part of a single booking.Instead of booking one meeting at a time, attendees can select several slots in one flow. Package Booking can be enabled for:
- Individual (normal) events
- Team events (except Collective Scheduling events)
Note: Package Booking does not work with Collective Scheduling events
Step 1
Navigate to Event Types.
Step 2
Select the event for which you want to enable package booking OR click the settings icon (⚙️) on that event card.
Step 3
Choose “Edit” from the dropdown menu.Step 4
In the “Event Setup” section, scroll down to find “Create a Multi-Session Package” & Toggle ON.
| Feature | Fixed Slot | Flexible Range |
|---|---|---|
| Slot count | Host sets an exact number of slots | Host sets a minimum and maximum range |
| Attendee choice | Must select exactly the defined number of slots | Can select any number within the allowed range |
| Booking condition | Booking completes only when all slots are selected | Booking completes once selection is within the range |
| Example setup | 4 slots | 2–6 slots |
| Example attendee action | Must book exactly 4 sessions | Can book 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 sessions |
| Flexibility for attendee | ❌ Low | ✅ High |
| Best for | Fixed programs, paid bundles, structured courses | Coaching, mentoring, flexible engagement packages |
| Pricing alignment | Easy to price per package | Useful when pricing depends on session count |
| Risk of partial booking | None (strict requirement) | Possible if expectations aren’t clearly communicated |
For example In Flexible Range 2-6, I selected 6 sessions below.
Recurring Bookings (within a Package)
Once Package Booking is enabled, you can also allow attendees to fill their package slots using a recurring pattern — instead of picking each session date manually, they choose a frequency (e.g., every week) and the system generates the slots automatically.Note: Recurring bookings require Package Booking to be enabled first. Recurring is not available for Collective Scheduling events, and it cannot be used when Seats are enabled on the event.
How to Enable Recurring Bookings
After enabling Package Booking (Step 4 above), stay in the same settings area and look for the “Allow Recurring Bookings” toggle. Turn it on. Once enabled, you can select which recurrence patterns attendees are allowed to choose from:| Pattern | What it means |
|---|---|
| Daily | Repeats every day |
| Weekly | Same day every week (e.g., every Tuesday) |
| Biweekly | Same day every 2 weeks |
| Every 3 weeks | Same day every 3 weeks |
| Every 4 weeks | Same day every 4 weeks |
| Monthly (same date) | Same date each month (e.g., the 22nd) |
| Monthly (same weekday) | Same weekday each month (e.g., the 4th Wednesday) |
How Attendees Use Recurring Bookings
When an attendee is building their package and clicks on a time slot, they see two options:- Add this slot to package — adds just that one slot manually
- Make this slot recurring — opens the recurring sessions dialog
- Selects a recurrence pattern from the ones you’ve allowed (e.g., “Every Wednesday”)
- Selects how many times it should repeat (up to the remaining slots in their package)
- Reviews a preview summary — e.g., “Every Wednesday starting June 11 for 4 sessions”
- Confirms — all generated slots are added to their package at once
If some generated dates are unavailable, those slots are flagged with an “Unavailable” badge. The attendee must adjust those before they can complete the booking.
Recurring vs. Manual Slot Selection — Which to Use?
| Manual Selection | Recurring | |
|---|---|---|
| How slots are chosen | Attendee picks each date individually | Attendee picks a pattern; dates are generated automatically |
| Best for | Irregular schedules, attendees with varying availability | Regular cadences — weekly coaching, biweekly check-ins, monthly sessions |
| Attendee effort | Higher (must find and click each slot) | Lower (one pattern fills all slots instantly) |
| Flexibility | Maximum — any available slot | Limited to the selected recurrence pattern |
What to Know
- Only the first session in a recurring series triggers a confirmation email to both you and your attendee. Subsequent sessions in the series are booked silently.
- Recurring series integrate with external calendars (Google Calendar, Outlook) as a single recurring calendar event using the recurrence rule — not separate events.
- Attendees can remove individual slots from a recurring series after it’s been added to their package. Removing a slot from the middle of a series splits it into two separate groups automatically.
- Recurring slot selection is not available during rescheduling — attendees must adjust slots manually if they are rescheduling an existing booking.
