New Easier Booking for Peer Support Requests

September 2026

We are releasing a new, streamlined booking experience for Peer Support Requests and Meeting Services. This update is designed to make scheduling easier for members and reduce the amount of coordination required from Peer Supporters.

Below is a high‑level overview of what’s changing.

Availability Calendar

The new Availability Calendar will become the foundation of all booking. Peer Supporters will be able to manage their schedule in one place, and members will book directly from available times.
When the new system is released, Peer Supporters will be able to:
  • set weekly recurring hours
  • add exceptions for days they’re unavailable
  • block off personal time
  • sync their Google Calendar (optional)
  • prevent double‑booking
  • maintain buffer time between sessions
    Members will choose from these available times when booking Peer Support Requests or Meeting Services.

    New Pricing Grid 

    A new pricing grid will allow Peer Supporters to offer multiple meeting lengths at different prices. This grid will be used across all Peer Support Requests and Meeting Services, giving members more flexibility and clarity when booking.

    Automatic Meeting Creation 

    Once a member selects a meeting length, chooses a time, and pays, the system will automatically create and register the meeting. There is no longer any need for manual meeting setup.

    Meeting Services will be Fully Self‑Service 

    Members can book Meeting Services without any involvement from the Peer Supporter. Each Meeting Service includes its own pricing and uses the Peer Supporter’s availability, allowing members to:
    • select the service
    • choose a meeting length
    • pick a date and time
    • pay
    The system handles the rest.
    What You’ll Need to Do

    There are a few steps you’ll need to complete so members can book with you smoothly.
