How do I restrict when clients can book into a session?
Set booking cut-off times to control your schedule and avoid last-minute chaos.
Why Use This Feature?
If you need time to prepare for a session or want to avoid unexpected drop-ins, LegitFit allows you to set booking cut-off times. This ensures clients can only book within the timeframe you allow, helping you stay organised and in control.
Step-by-Step Instructions
-
Go to Timetable > Add Session or edit an existing session.
-
Scroll to the Booking Time Limit option.
-
Set your preferred booking time limit — for example:
-
Must book at least 1 hour before session start time.
-
-
Click Save.

What Happens Next
Clients will only be able to book within the timeframe you set. If they try to book too close to the session start, they’ll see a message explaining that booking is closed. You can also leave this option off to allow last-minute bookings.
Success Tip
Set a 1–2 hour booking window to give instructors time to prepare and reduce last-minute disruptions. For best results, align your cancellation window with your refund settings, either as a default in your settings or on a session-by-session basis.
