Helpful Tips:

  • Location logo: The icon is used to distinguish your locations both internally in the Staff Experience and on public pages.

    Internal: Logo appears in the upper right corner and navigates to other locations that you, as a user, has access to view.

  • Location display name: Customize this field if you wish to change the Location name on your public pages from what you might use internally.

    Example: 0012 Revival Day Spa may be your Location name, while Revival Day Spa Atlanta is your Location display name.

  • Location short name: A shortened location name that is used in public page URLs.

    This name cannot be used by any other location, must be Alpha numeric all lower case without special characters except for dash. It must be more than 4 characters and no more than 30 characters (max of 20 letters and 10 numbers)

  • Location Phone: Add your business phone number to enable call forwarding for SMS messages. If a customer calls the SMS sending number, the call will automatically redirect to your business phone, ensuring seamless communication.

  • Location Address: Include your location address if you want to provide directions for customers through Google Maps or enable Reserve with Google for your restaurant waitlist.
