What you get

What DatePick and Outlook Calendar do together

01

Bookings in Outlook, instantly

Each booking becomes an Outlook event with the customer, service, answers and booking link. It moves when the booking is rescheduled and disappears when it's canceled.

02

Meetings block booking times

Supplier calls, staff meetings and anything else on a teammate's Outlook calendar hide those slots from customers in your store.

03

Work and personal accounts

Connect a Microsoft 365 work or school account or a personal Outlook.com, Hotmail or Live account.

04

Pairs with Teams

For online services, connect Microsoft Teams too and each booking's event gets its own Teams meeting link.

FAQ

Outlook Calendar questions

Do I need Microsoft 365, or does Outlook.com work?

Both work for calendar sync. Teams meeting links are the one thing that need a Microsoft 365 work or school account.

Why is a direct connection better than subscribing to a calendar link?

Outlook only refreshes subscribed calendars every few hours, and sometimes less often. Signing in with Microsoft updates bookings within moments and also lets busy time block slots.

Will my meeting titles be visible to customers?

No. DatePick only uses whether a time is busy. Meeting titles and details are never shown.
