Meeting Types
An overview of meeting types and everything you can configure in the meeting type editor.
Meeting types are your appointment templates. Each one bundles all settings — duration, channel, availability, notifications, branding — into a reusable booking page. Create one for each type of appointment you offer:
- Discovery calls (15–30 min)
- Product demos (45–60 min)
- Coaching sessions (60–90 min)
- Quick check-ins (15 min)
Each meeting type can have completely different settings, so your quick check-ins can be phone calls while your strategy sessions are video meetings with longer buffer times.
Creating one takes about a minute. Create a meeting type walks through the whole dialog with screenshots. The rest of this article is a reference for everything the editor holds afterwards.
The four formats
When creating, you choose between four formats:
Single host
- One-on-One — one host with one participant
- Group Meeting — one host with multiple participants per slot
Team
- Round-Robin — rotating hosts, appointments distributed across a queue. Learn more about round-robin
- Collective — multiple hosts, all must be available (combined availability is shown)
The meeting type editor
When you open a meeting type, you'll see the editor with several tabs. Here's what each one does:
Basics
Set up the basics of your meeting type.
- Title — the name shown on your booking page
- Description — explain what the meeting is about
- Link — the unique URL for this booking page that you share with others
- Venue — where the meeting takes place: video providers (Zoom, Teams, Google Meet, meetergo Connect), phone, in-person, or a custom link. A video venue creates a new room for every booking. If you want one link that stays the same, see Start an instant video call or use your personal room link
Availability
Controls when time slots appear on your booking page.
-
Duration — fixed or flexible with multiple options. How to change duration
-
Date range — how far into the future people can book. Learn more about limiting future bookings
-
Availability — which availability schedule applies. Learn more about availability
-
Buffers — time before/after meetings. Understanding buffers · Back-to-back meetings
In the additional options:
-
Start time increments — controls which time slots are shown (e.g. every 15, 30, or 60 minutes). Custom intervals
-
Scheduling conditions — minimum notice before a booking (e.g. at least 2 hours in advance)
-
Booking frequency limits — how often you can be booked per day/week/month. Limiting bookings per email
-
Time zone display — open the booking page in the visitor's own time zone, or lock it to one zone you pick. Lock Timezone on Booking Page
Hosts & attendees
Configure who hosts the meeting and who gets invited automatically.
For one-on-one and group types, you see the assigned host. For round-robin and collective types, you manage the host queue — the system assigns the right person based on availability.
- Queue principle — the queue rotates after each booking. An entry can be a single user or a group. If the next entry isn't available, it's skipped. Learn more
- Allow guests — let participants invite additional people during booking
Booking form
Customize the booking form your attendees fill out.
- Show form at the beginning — display the form before time selection
- Custom form — use a fully customized form with your own fields
How to add or remove invitee questions · Customizing with data fields
Payment
Collect payments before a booking is confirmed. Supports PayPal and Stripe integration.
Workflows
Link automated workflows to your meeting type — for example, send a follow-up email 24 hours after the meeting or notify a Slack channel when someone books.
Notifications
Personalize notification emails and set up reminders or follow-ups. A language picker appears above the template once more than one language is active, so you can write each email per language.
