Email notifications overview
Notifications are email messages sent to your Customers to confirm booking actions. They may include a booking confirmation, notice of changes made to the booking, or a payment request.
Configuring these email notifications is quick and easy. We provide several variables that automatically populate your email with select information. These variables might include the Customer's name, details of the item(s)/product(s) they have booked, and a copy of the invoice.
This series of articles covers configuring options, using email variables, editing columns, previewing, copying, translating, exporting your Notifications list, and more!
