Booking Statuses and What They Mean

Understand the different booking statuses and how they affect your Space's calendar availability

This article is for Hosts who want to understand the stages of a booking's lifecycle and how each status affects Space availability.

Pending Booking Availability

By default, pending booking requests do not block out calendar availability. This allows Hosts to evaluate multiple incoming requests and select the best fit for their Space without locking out dates prematurely.

The system prevents accidental double bookings by restricting conflicting approvals. To manage calendar availability during peak times, Hosts can create Manual Bookings, set up an Invite Only Period, or configure pending bookings to block availability under Space Billing settings.

Note: This is managed on a per-space basis.
