Overview

This article explains how to create a bookable “Space” in Admin (for example a meeting room, coworking zone, amenity or private venue) under your existing Places. Spaces allow you to set availability, pricing, reservation rules, and capacity.


1. Access the Spaces Module

  • In Admin, navigate to Operations & Venues → Spaces → New Space.

  • If you don’t yet have the “Spaces” section visible, ensure you have proper permissions and that at least one “Place” (venue) exists.


2. Select Parent Place

  • Choose the Place (venue/location) under which this new space will reside.

  • Ensure the place is active and correctly configured (city, address, type) before adding its spaces.


    💡 Example: If your place is “Main Coworking Floor”, you might create “Meeting Room A” as a space.


3. Define Basic Details

Fill in:

  • Space Name – descriptive name of the space (e.g., “Boardroom 1”, “Yoga Studio”).

  • Capacity – maximum number of persons allowed simultaneously in the space.

  • Tags / Labels – optional keywords to help filter or categorize (e.g., “private meeting”, “quiet zone”, “work-pod”).

  • Accessibility – indicate whether this space is for members only, guests, or both.


4. Availability & Booking Settings

  • Reservation Enabled – toggle on to allow in-app bookings by members (and/or guests) for this space.

  • Time Slots – define how bookings may be made (hourly, half-day, full day).

  • Advance Booking Window – set how far in advance the space can be reserved.

  • Cancellation Policy – optional: configure rules for cancellations (e.g., free up to 24 hrs before).

  • Recurring Reservations – if supported, set whether members can book repeating slots.


5. Pricing & Access Options

  • If you charge for use, set a Base Price (e.g., USD 100/hour).

  • Optionally define different pricing tiers (members vs non-members, peak vs off-peak).

  • If the space is part of the included “access pass” or membership tier, specify that relationship.

  • If the space allows Daily Pass or Guest Pass access, configure accordingly.


6. Description & Media

  • Description – write a clear overview of the space: purpose, amenities (screen, whiteboard, AV), rules, etc.

  • Image Upload – include one or more photos to help members visually identify the space.

  • Extras – list any additional services (e.g., catering, tech support, cleaning) if applicable.


7. Save the Space

  • Click Create Space (or “Save”) to finalize creation.

  • The new space will appear under the selected Place’s list of spaces and become available for booking according to the settings you configured.

  • Test by making a dummy booking to ensure settings (availability, pricing, capacity) work as expected.


Tips for Admins

  • Use consistent naming and tagging to make spaces easily searchable for members and staff.

  • Review capacity and booking settings regularly, especially if you change room layout or usage.

  • Cross-check space availability with Place availability and city-level scheduling to avoid conflicts.

  • If you offer hourly bookings and daily passes, clearly differentiate policies so members understand usage limits.
