Create and Manage Booking Links

This guide explains how to create, edit, and share booking links in Bnder.

  1. Open the App.
  2. Go to Settings for your workspace.
  3. Open the Calendar section.
  4. Find Booking links.
  5. Click Create booking link.
  6. Configure the options and save.

Each booking link has its own settings. Typical options include:

  • Name: A label shown in the booking list and on the booking page.
  • Slot duration: The length of each booking slot.
  • Meeting link: Optional static URL used as the event location and included in confirmations.
  • Auto-confirm: If enabled, bookings are confirmed immediately.
  • Minimum notice: The shortest time before a slot can be booked.
  • Maximum advance: How far into the future someone can book.
  • Limits per day/week: Optional caps for how many bookings a link can accept.
  • Availability: Optional weekly hours for this link. You can add multiple time windows to a day. If custom hours are off, the link uses your workspace calendar hours.
  • Date overrides: Close a specific date for vacation or a holiday, or replace that date with different hours.
  • Meeting buffers: Reserve separate amounts of time before and after every booking.
  • Team scheduling (Pro): Choose one host, distribute bookings round-robin, or require every selected host.
  • Co-hosts (Pro): Add people who attend every booking and whose calendars must be free.
  • Booking form (Pro): Add required or optional text, dropdown, checkbox, phone, and consent questions.
  • Conditional questions (Pro): Show a question only when an earlier answer matches your configured value.
  • Email verification (Pro): Require visitors to verify their address before a booking request can be submitted.

Date overrides use the calendar owner's configured timezone and take priority over the link's weekly hours. A closed date has no bookable slots even when that weekday is normally available.

For round-robin links, visitors can leave the host choice open or prefer a specific host. Bnder assigns an available host atomically and rotates assignments fairly. Turn on Require every host to be available when a round-robin meeting still needs the whole host pool. Collective links always require every host and co-host to be free.

For each custom question, turn on Add answer to event description when hosts should see the response in the calendar event. Consent questions are always required. Conditional questions can only depend on an earlier question, which keeps the public form order predictable. The booking page validates the form before submission, and Bnder validates it again before reserving the slot.

After saving, Bnder shows the full link URL. The URL uses your Bnder Page domain:

  • If you have a custom page domain, the booking link uses that domain.
  • If not, Bnder provides a default booking URL.

In the booking links list you can:

  • Edit a link to change duration, limits, or confirmation settings.
  • Regenerate a link to rotate its public URL.
  • Delete a link to disable it immediately.

Regenerating a booking link keeps the booking-link settings but creates a new public key for the URL. Share the new URL after regenerating; anyone with the old URL can no longer use that old link.

The maximum number of booking links per workspace depends on the active paid seats in that workspace.

The limit is enforced when the link is saved. If simultaneous requests compete for the final available slot, only one link is created and the other request reports that the limit has been reached.

  • No paid seats: basic booking links with the smallest workspace limit
  • Starter seats: higher booking-link capacity for basic usage
  • Pro seats: higher limits plus advanced booking rules, longer advance windows, and team scheduling

If you reach the limit, delete an existing link or add more paid seats.
