With Wix Table Reservations, managing notifications helps you stay connected with both your staff and your guests. Keep your team updated about reservation activities like new bookings, special requests, or cancellations through email, dashboard alerts, SMS, or push notifications in the Wix app.
At the same time, automated guest notifications ensure your diners get confirmations, updates, reminders, and cancellations when needed.
