Booking confirmation or cancellation
After creating a booking or activating a booking received from the site, it becomes necessary to send confirmation to the client. Also, if the reservation received from the site failed to select a suitable car or any additional questions arose, a refusal is sent to the client due to the lack of cars or a random message is sent.
By default, if the client has an email address, confirmation is sent via email. It is possible to enable sending notifications to WhatsApp. These services are provided by third party service providers and require additional fees. We recommend using email as your primary confirmation channel; as an additional channel (due to the fact that email messages sometimes end up in “spam”), we suggest you consider WhatsApp. Economically, this is the most profitable, since for a small subscription fee (includes only the services of a third-party provider, we do not charge a commission for this), you get the opportunity to send an unlimited number of messages.
After connecting WhatsApp, if the client's phone number is available in this messenger, the “WhatsApp” slider becomes active. You can, if necessary, disable any of the communication channels by clicking on the corresponding slider.
Confirmation
Confirmation is made by clicking the “Confirmation” button. In this case, the client will receive a message with the following content:

By templates
When you click the “By templates” button, a window for entering a custom message appears. You enter the subject and text of the message in the appropriate fields. For example, this may be needed if the client indicated an incorrect phone number in the application; here you can write him a message stating that it is impossible to contact him at the specified number. Next, when you click on the “Save Template” slider, the entered text will be saved as a message template for later sending to other clients. To use a previously saved template, click the “Response Templates” button next to the title of the “Letter to Client” window. Next, click the “Submit” button.
