Automated Booqable Reservation Confirmations

Every few minutes, WebRun opens Booqable, finds reservations created since the last run, drafts a confirmation email for each customer in Gmail, and adds a calendar hold for the pickup and return window so staff can see it at a glance.

In short

How do I automatically confirm new rental reservations?

WebRun checks Booqable every few minutes for newly created reservations. It drafts a confirmation email for each customer in Gmail with the items, pickup time, and return time, then blocks that window on Google Calendar, so staff can see what is booked at a glance and confirmations go out fast.

  • New reservations get a confirmation drafted within minutes
  • Staff see every pickup and return window on one shared calendar
  • No confirmation email sends without a human review

Built for tool rental shops · equipment rental businesses · general rental stores · online rental storefronts

Questions, answered

Will it send confirmation emails to customers automatically?

No. WebRun drafts every confirmation in Gmail and leaves it unsent. A staff member reviews and sends it, so no customer receives a message without a human check first.

What happens on the calendar if a reservation changes?

WebRun reads the live reservation details in Booqable on every run. If dates or items change before the hold is created, the calendar event reflects the latest version.

Does it confirm reservations made in store as well as online?

Yes. It reads every new reservation in Booqable regardless of whether it was booked online or entered by staff at the counter.
