Messaging on a booking

Keep the conversation with an organisation on-platform, tied to the booking. Available on Plus.

How it works

Once a booking is accepted, you and the organisation can message about it without it scattering across personal email. The organisation sees a message box on the same secure link they use to view the booking, no account needed. You read and reply from your dashboard.

Every message is attached to the booking, so the whole exchange stays in one place and you keep a record.

Where to find it

  • When an organisation messages you, it lands in your Notifications with a link straight to the conversation.
  • You can open the conversation from the booking itself and reply there.
  • The organisation opens their booking link and uses the Send a message box.

Good to know

Note
The booking link the organisation uses lasts 30 days and you can revoke it. If you revoke access, the organisation can no longer message you, but your copy of the conversation stays on your dashboard.

Frequently asked questions

Does the organisation need a Sessional account?
No. They reply through the same no-account secure link they use to view the booking.
Is this the same as raising a dispute?
No. Disputes are a separate, formal action on a booking. Messaging is for ordinary back-and-forth, like confirming a start time or parking.
Which plan includes messaging?
Receiving a message from an organisation works on any plan. Replying in-app from your dashboard is a Plus feature.
