Troubleshooting
I'm not getting booking emails
What to check when emails about new bookings, moves or cancellations aren't arriving.
Sotera emails you when a booking comes in, moves or is cancelled. If they aren't arriving, check these.
Steps
- Look in your spam or junk folder. If you find one, mark it "not spam".
- Go to Notifications and make sure Email me about bookings is on.
- Check which email you sign in with (shown at the bottom of the dashboard menu, next to Sign out). That's where booking emails go.
- Go to Settings and check the Email under How clients reach you. It also gets a copy.
- Check Bookings. If the booking isn't there, it wasn't made in Sotera.
Good to know
- If you're a team member, you only get emails about your own appointments. Owners get every booking.
- If your site sends Book buttons to another booking site, those bookings never reach Sotera.
- For faster alerts, turn on phone notifications (see "Get notified about bookings and install Sotera on your phone").
If it still doesn't work
- Make a test booking on your own site with your own email, then check both inboxes.
- Still nothing? Email hello@sotera.to with your business name, the email you expected it at, and the time of a booking you didn't hear about.
Still stuck? Open your dashboard and press Help: it can look at your account, and reach the Sotera team for you.
