How to Add a Waitlisted Participant to a Session

When a spot becomes available in a session:

  • Facility Admins and Owner will receive a notification that a spot has opened up

  • If the facility has enabled automated notifications for the Waitlist, then the participant will also receive a text and email notification

At that point, either:

  • The participant can register for the available session themselves, or

  • The facility can manually add the participant to the session and complete the checkout process on their behalf

To add a participant to the session from the Waitlist,

  1. In Admin, go to the Calendar page

  2. Find the session on the Calendar and click the booking tile

  3. Select the Manage Participants and Payments icon (second icon)

  4. Click View Waitlist

  5. Next to the participant’s name, click the More icon (three vertical dots)

  6. Select Add to Session

  7. The session will automatically populate in the Receipt section

  8. Adjust the amount manually if needed

  9. Click Checkout

  10. Select the appropriate payment method

  11. Click Pay & Apply Changes
