Each scheduled appointment is automatically placed on the appropriate calendars, along with pertinent details.
Powerful appointment management Easily manage all customer appointments by type, location and assigned resources—including modifying, transferring or canceling them—no matter what channel was used to book them.
Engage with your customers through text messaging With Interactive Text Appointments, your customers can schedule, join the queue, reschedule or cancel appointments by text message. Customers can quickly find out how long the wait time is at your locations, and let you know if they are running late. Customers can select the appointment topic, location, and when they would like to meet.
Customers can book appointments even when you can’t get to the phone With our patented Interactive Voice Appointments, customers can call your phone system to book an appointment in exactly the same way they do it online.

Concierge queue management Concierge is a suite of fully configurable mobile applications for your staff and supervisors to manage customer flow in real time. When customers walk into your business—whether they have an appointment or not—Concierge helps you provide “We’ve been expecting you” service from the moment they arrive.
“We’ve been expecting you” service Staff have visibility into their daily TimeTrade appointments, so they can prepare to provide exceptional service. Staff members also can transfer appointments to colleagues to minimize wait times, if needed.
Deliver a great first impression No appointment? No problem. Walk-ins can check in via text or at the Concierge Kiosk, see how long they’ll have to wait for service, and either add their name to the queue or easily schedule a future appointment.
Manage customer expectations Set expectations for customers by welcoming them on the Concierge real-time Up-Next-For-Service Display.
Fully utilize staff and take real-time action With Concierge Mobile, managers can view all activity for their location. This provides a real-time, holistic view of how your team is executing, so you can make informed decisions. If a customer cancels, runs late, or an appointment finishes early, staff have the option to transfer appointments between one another.
Wait time updates for customers Early arriving customers with appointments—as well as walk-ins who are waiting in the queue—can be notified by text message when they’re up next for service. That way, if they want to run an errand or shop while they wait, they won’t miss their turn.
