### ✅ First things first

For your experience to be bookable or requestable, **two key steps** in the CMS must be correctly set:

- **Step 2:** “When does the experience take place?”
- **Step 3:** “Is the experience bookable?”

---

### 1. 📅 Step 2: Add Events or Availabilities

#### 🔹 Option A: **Events (fixed dates with registration)**

- Add specific dates for your experience (e.g. hikes, yoga sessions, wine tastings).
- Under Step 3, activate **“Is the experience bookable”** → switch to “Yes” and add **at least one email address and one ticket**.
- Guests can **sign up directly for a scheduled time**
- They will receive an **automatic confirmation email**

💡 **Tip:**  
We recommend updating your events **at least once per season** to keep your experience active and visible.

⚠️ **Important:**  
If no upcoming events are set, the experience will **no longer be bookable**, even if Step 3 is enabled.

---

#### 🔹 Option B: **Availabilities (flexible request)**

- Ideal for custom or private experiences (e.g. massages, private dinners, coaching sessions)
- Guests can view your available time slots
- They send a **non-binding request** for a preferred time

📝 **Example:**  
You define that the experience is available for requests **Monday to Friday**, either **in the morning or afternoon**.

---

### 2. 📨 Step 3: Booking settings, Email & Tickets

To ensure your experience is actually bookable or requestable via Giggle, you need to **complete the booking setup in Step 3**:

#### ✔️ Add at least one **email address**

So that you or your team can be **automatically notified** of new bookings or requests.

#### ✔️ Create at least one **ticket**

Without a ticket, the experience **cannot be booked or requested**.

Give the ticket a clear name (e.g. “Massage 30 Min.”, “Hatha Yoga”, “Picnic Basket Deluxe”).

**Optional additions:**

- Ticket description (e.g. “Price per person for in-house guests incl. ...”)
- Set a price or mark the ticket as **free of charge**
- Add **multiple ticket types** (e.g. Adult/Child, In-house/External guests)

💡 **Tip:**  
If this is an **externally bookable experience**, you can **disable Giggle booking** under the **optional ticket settings** and instead add an **external booking link and/or call button**.

---

### ✅ Final Checklist

To make your experience bookable or requestable, check the following:

✔️ Events or availabilities are added in **Step 2**  
✔️ Booking is activated in **Step 3**  
✔️ At least one **email recipient and a named ticket** are added

**OR:**

✔️ Giggle booking is deactivated  
✔️ An **external booking link and/or call button** is active instead

Only if these conditions are met will your experience be properly displayed and available for booking or inquiry.
