Welcome to Booking Bible
Your new booking platform is live — here is what to expect and where to find things.
- ImprovementAppointmentsServicesCheck In·
Settings start where the work happens
**Settings now start beside the work they change.** Open Gym visit controls now belong in **Check-in → Check-in settings**, rather than being buried in the venue-wide Settings area. Existing bookmarks to the old Open Gym settings address still take you to the new, exact control.
- ImprovementAppointmentsServicesSettings·
Appointment settings now live with Appointments
**Appointment settings are now where you use Appointments.** Open **Appointments → Appointment settings** to choose how frequently available appointment start times appear to clients.
- ImprovementReportsClientsSchedule·
Find each report beside the part of the business it explains
Reports now follow the same simpler structure as Settings. Reports about one area of your venue live beside that work: Client Reports is a tab under Clients, course and workshop reports sit with Courses & Workshops, and the Schedule, Staff, Passes, Products, Promotions, Appointments, Private Sessions, and Maintenance pages each link to their own focused report collection.
- New featureWorkshopsCoursesSchedule·
Double-check workshop dates before they go live
Workshop dates now show the day of the week as soon as you choose them, and course session pickers include the weekday too. This makes it much easier to catch a Monday-versus-Tuesday mistake before saving.
- ImprovementCoursesPaymentsIntegrations·
Accepted course applications now continue into the real course checkout
YogaBible's application wizard now sends accepted teacher-training applicants to BookingBible's native course checkout. The Preparation Phase is a course deposit—not a separate pass—so the payment, remaining balance, receipt, reporting, enrollment, track, and access stages all stay on the same course record.
- New featureSettingsEmails·
Reword any automated email in your own voice
Every automated email can now carry your own wording. Open Client emails & reminders → Automated messages, find a message, and choose "Edit wording". You get two fields: the subject line, and a message in your own voice that appears at the top of the email.
- Bug fixCheck InStaff·
Check-in no longer goes blank when your session hiccups
If your sign-in quietly expired while a page was open — most visibly on check-in, which refreshes itself constantly — the next button you pressed made the screen go white. You had to reload and navigate back, then it happened again on the next click.
- Bug fixNetworkStaff·
Professional collaborations open the right page — and no longer arrive with your client list
Independent professionals you collaborate with were also being listed under Network → **Business partners**, and clicking one opened the venue-to-venue partnership page. That page describes something entirely different, so a teacher collaboration showed up as a "Pay per visit partnership" with a platform fee, a binding period, a notice period and a Pass Access tab — none of which apply to a person
- New featureNetworkStaffBilling·
One place for everything about a professional you work with
Everything about an independent professional you collaborate with now lives on one page, in tabs: **Compensation · Role & access · Data sharing · Money · Contract**. The professional sees the matching view from their own side.
- New featureSettingsEmails·
Edit the wording of far more text messages, and see at a glance what is email and what is a text
Sixteen text messages can now use your own wording, up from six — including class restored, attendance corrected, a refunded fee, account credit added, pass paused and resumed, membership ended, the nine pass-change notices, staff invitations and cover requests. Open Client emails & reminders → Text messages and look for "Wording you can edit".
- ImprovementCoursesWorkshopsPayments·
Courses and workshops now have safer payment, access, and application workflows
Course payment choices are now clearly separated into pay in full, deposit with one later balance, equal installments without a deposit, and deposit followed by balance installments. Automatic card plans require an explicit buyer authorization. When a scheduled card payment needs attention, the client gets a secure link for that exact installment; they can confirm it or replace the card without be
- New featureScheduleCheck InBookings·
Waitlist tools on your roster, honest stream status, and cancellation fixes
**Waitlists are now visible and workable everywhere.** Class cards on the Schedule and Check-in pages show how many people are waiting (for example "5 waitlist"), and every waitlisted client on a roster has an **Add to class** button that moves them straight onto the roster — with a clear confirmation if the class is already full and you want to squeeze them in anyway. You can also select several
- Bug fixScheduleNotifications·
Class edits no longer message clients unless you ask
Editing a single class from its detail page — changing the room, the time, or the teacher — no longer sends anything to booked clients by default. The "Notify affected clients" choice used to come pre-ticked whenever the class had bookings, so a quick room swap (for example while testing streaming) could email everyone on the roster without you choosing to.
- New featureSettingsEmails·
See and control every text message the platform sends
Client emails & reminders has a new Text messages tab showing every SMS the platform can send on your behalf — automatic messages to clients (waitlist promotions, cancellations, schedule changes, fee notices, pass and membership changes and more), operational texts to your team, and the ones you send yourself (bulk SMS, receipts, payment links, campaigns).
- New featureSettingsEmailsBilling·
Write your own text messages, and send the payment link by SMS
You can now change the wording of your text messages. Under Client emails & reminders → Text messages, any message marked "Wording you can edit" opens an editor where you write your own version, drop in details like the client's name or the amount, and see live how many messages it will cost to send — useful, because texts are billed per message and special characters shorten the limit. Until you
- ImprovementCoursesWorkshopsPayments·
Course payment choices and session access are now easier to understand
The Pricing tab now explains four payment choices separately: pay in full, pay a deposit with one later balance, pay equal installments without a deposit, or pay a deposit followed by balance installments. It also shows what each payment milestone unlocks, while keeping the actual access settings in Sessions.
- New featureSettingsEmails·
Booking confirmations and class reminders are editable now, and the Receipts tab tells the truth
Your two highest-volume client emails — the booking confirmation and the class reminder — can now use your own wording. Open Client emails & reminders → Templates, edit "Booking Confirmed" or "Class Reminder", and switch it to Custom wording. Until you make that switch, clients keep receiving the standard rich email (with add-ons, registration notes, and online-class links), so nothing changes unl
- ImprovementCourse Native Commerce Access·
Courses now manage payments and access directly
Courses can now offer full payment, a deposit, installments, or a deposit followed by installments without creating a separate pass. Shareable payment links make it easy to send the exact full, deposit, or balance option to a participant.
- Bug fix·
Course workshops now show where they are edited
Workshop dates reused in a course now appear as clearly shared schedule details instead of disabled form fields. Use **Edit shared workshop schedule** to open the exact Workshop Library occurrence and safely change its date, time, room, teacher, or public visibility.
- Bug fix·
Partial refunds now stay visible in daily sales
Partially and fully refunded payments now remain part of the original gross sales and transaction count. Refunds are shown separately and deducted once, so the net amount reflects the money the venue actually retained.
- Improvement·
Scheduled memberships and course payment edits are more reliable
When staff create a membership that starts later and choose to charge on the start date, BookingBible now creates the scheduled membership without testing or charging the saved card immediately. The first payment follows the normal automatic collection and reminder flow on the selected start date.
- Improvement·
Clearer front-desk sales, refunds, and alerts
Pass and product shortcuts now open the item you selected, check-in sales load eligible passes, receipts can be sent by SMS, and repeated technical alerts are grouped with clear next steps.
