No-show fee wording
No-show fee policy template
Use this page when clients miss appointments and you need clearer no-show fee wording before enabling a custom policy pack. Keep the rule visible before booking, make rescheduling easy before the cutoff, and avoid surprise fees.
Simple no-show fee wording
If you miss your appointment without cancelling before the notice window, a no-show fee may apply because the appointment time was reserved and could not be offered to another client.
Disclosure checklist
Show the fee rule before booking, repeat it in the confirmation, include the notice window, and explain whether deposits, prepayments, or stored-card charges are handled by your booking platform.
Reminder wording
Your appointment is coming up. Please reply before the cancellation window if you need to reschedule so the time can be offered to another client.
Client reply wording
I understand schedules change. The fee policy exists because appointment time is reserved specifically for each client and is difficult to refill after the cutoff.
