Use the waitlist

2 minutes readLast updated August 18, 2026

Summary

Collect customers who want a time you do not have, and tell them when one opens.

Where it is

Schedule → Waitlist holds everyone waiting, with what they want and when they are free.

How people join

Customers ask to join from your booking page when the time they want is unavailable, and you can add someone yourself.

What happens when a spot opens

When a matching appointment is cancelled, OperMae notifies waiting customers that the time is available so they can book it.

What it does not do

The waitlist never books anyone automatically, and a waitlist entry never holds or blocks a slot on your calendar — the time stays genuinely bookable by anyone until it is booked.

Keeping it useful

Remove entries once they are booked or no longer relevant, so the list stays worth reading.
