New booking alert — you know straight away
An email to you on every new booking, plus a live notification inside the app.
The problem
A booking taken online makes no noise. If you do not think to open the calendar, you may learn an appointment exists by watching someone walk in — the surest way not to be ready.
The problem bites hardest early on, when bookings are rare and far apart: nobody checks an empty calendar several times a day. That is precisely when missing a booking costs the most.
An alert settles the matter without any particular discipline: the information comes to you.
Without Kagenda
An online booking comes in at 10pm. You find out the next morning, opening the diary by chance.
With Kagenda
An email and a notification arrive right away — you know, without having to check.
How it works in Kagenda
Kagenda tells you in two ways, depending on whether you are in front of the app or not.
- An email on every bookingSwitchable on or off to suit you. It sums up the client, the service, the date and the time.
- A live notificationWhen the app is open, a sound and a panel flag the incoming booking without your having to refresh.
- The appointment is already in the calendarThe alert only tells you: the slot has been blocked since the client confirmed, before you even read it.

The alert informs, it doesn't decide: the appointment already exists in the diary as soon as the client confirms.

Frequently asked questions
Can I switch these emails off?
Yes, the alert to you is a separate setting. Some people prefer to rely on the calendar and the live notification alone.
Am I told about cancellations too?
Yes. A cancellation made by the client is flagged to you, and the slot goes back into booking immediately in any case.
Is there a notification on mobile?
The live notification works whenever the app is open, including on mobile. Outside that, email plays the role.
