Get more customer reviews (US only)

For Setmore users in the US, you can now activate automated email review prompts. These emails will ping your customers 1 hour after their appointment, requesting that they post a review of their service to your Booking Page.

Customer reviews help encourage other customers to book more appointments, and give you valuable feedback on your job performance.

To activate, log into the Setmore web app and go to Settings > Booking Page > Reviews.

Be sure to activate Customer Reviews if they aren’t activated already.
Then click the Settings button to activate Email Prompts. You’re set!

SCA changes for payments in Setmore (EU only)

Due to Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) regulations in the European Union, we are restricting some forms of payments in Setmore.

What changed:

Stripe integration users will be unable to take payments from their calendar in the Setmore web and mobile apps.
Square integration users will be unable to take payments from their calendar in the Setmore web app only. Mobile apps are still 100% functional.

What stayed the same:

Stripe integration users can still take customer payments through the customer booking page/portal. Customers can still pay when they book online!
Square integration users can still take customer payments through the customer booking page/portal, and their Setmore iOS/Android app. Customers can still pay when they book online!
