Optional integrations
Google Calendar
Connect Google OAuth only when calendar delivery and external busy-event checks are needed. Connection credentials remain site-bound and are excluded from configuration exports.
Stripe Checkout
Enable Stripe only after HTTPS is active. Configure full or deposit payments, register the signed webhook endpoint and complete a test payment before launch.
Operations
Use the dashboard for daily workload, revenue and occupancy. Bookings can be filtered by date, status, payment and location. Customer-management links can allow secure cancellation or rescheduling within the rules you configure.
Before going live: verify timezone, email delivery, privacy consent, availability, booking confirmation and optional payment/calendar integrations on a staging copy.
