When clients book, cancel, or reschedule a service, or when you need to review a booking request, Wix automatically sends email notifications to you, your staff, and your clients.
When one of your clients books or cancels a service, Wix emails you and the staff member providing the service. You can choose which notifications you want to receive.
Notes:
- Email notifications are not sent in preview mode while your site is unpublished or under construction.
- When using a merchant account (e.g., PayPal or Stripe), notifications are sent to the email address linked to your payment account.
