When you enable Manual Booking, all booking requests for this Event Type will require your approval before they are confirmed. This gives you full control over who gets approved, ideal for high-value sessions, limited seats, or situations where you want to screen attendees before confirming. when Manual Booking is turned on:
  • Client sends a booking request
  • The booking stays in Pending state
  • You (the host) must manually Approve or Reject it from email and bookings section
  • Only after approval the client receives the confirmation email & calendar invite
  • This prevents unwanted or spam bookings from being auto-confirmed.
