Control how close to an event start time your customers can complete a booking.

Overview

The Checkout Settings tab lets you configure the booking window for your events and classes. This controls how far in advance (or after) an event start time customers are able to complete their checkout.

To access it, navigate to Settings from the sidebar menu, then click the Checkout Settings tab.

Checkout timeout

The Checkout timeout (minutes) field accepts a positive, zero or negative value:

ValueMeaning
30Customers must book at least 30 minutes before the event starts
0Customers can book right up until the event starts
-30Customers can book up to 30 minutes after the event has started

Common scenarios

  • Yoga studio with drop-ins: Set to -15 to allow late arrivals to book up to 15 minutes after class begins
  • Workshop with preparation needed: Set to 60 to close bookings 1 hour before the event
  • Flexible classes: Set to 0 so bookings close exactly when the class starts

Saving changes

After setting your preferred timeout, click Save. The change applies immediately to all future checkout attempts.
