Fully booked? Turn every cancellation into a new appointment

BENEFITS

Why use the waiting list

A cancellation is no longer lost income. Someone is already waiting to take the slot.

Fill cancellations instantly

When an appointment gets cancelled, the clients waiting for that time are right there in your calendar. Pick one, confirm, and the slot is booked again.

Don't lose clients

A client who can't find a slot usually books somewhere else. With the waiting list, they stay with you and wait for the first opening instead.

You stay in control

Nothing is booked automatically. You decide who gets the free slot and confirm it yourself, so your schedule always stays the way you want it.

Clients tell you when they can come

Each client picks a preferred time, how flexible they are around it, and optionally their favourite barber. You only see requests that actually fit the opening.

PROCESS

How does it work?

1

No free slot? They join the list

The client picks the day and time they want, how flexible they are, and their preferred barber. You get notified right away.

2

Someone cancels

A slot opens up in your schedule. The clients waiting for that time appear directly in your calendar, next to the free slot.

3

You confirm, they're booked

One tap creates the appointment. The client is notified instantly and the slot is filled before anyone else even notices it was free.

YOU ARE IN CONTROL

Nothing gets booked without your approval.

The waiting list never books anything on its own. When a slot opens up, you see who is waiting, what time works for them and which barber they prefer. You choose the client, confirm the appointment, and ebarber takes care of notifying them.

  • Clients set their preferred time, flexibility and barber
  • Waiting list requests appear directly in your calendar
  • You pick who gets the slot and confirm with one tap
  • The client is notified instantly and the appointment is booked

Frequently Asked Questions

Get all your questions answered about the waiting list with ebarber.

How does the waiting list work?
When a client can't find a free slot on your booking page, they can join your waiting list with the day and time they prefer. If an appointment gets cancelled, you see the waiting clients in your calendar and confirm one of them for the free slot. The appointment is created and the client is notified immediately.
Is the appointment booked automatically?
No. The waiting list never books anything on its own. You always choose which client gets the free slot and confirm the appointment yourself, so your schedule stays fully under your control.
Can clients choose a specific barber or time?
Yes. When joining the list, the client picks a preferred time, how many hours of flexibility they have around it, and optionally the barber they want. This way you only see requests that really match the slot that opened up.
How do I enable the waiting list for my barbershop?
The waiting list is activated with one click from your ebarber admin panel. Once enabled, the option appears on your booking page whenever a client cannot find a free slot.
