Day passes is a currency used for booking a hot desk by members in the app. 1 day pass is the cost of 1 desk booking regardless of the booking duration.
How to enable day passes
Navigate to Locations > Settings > Desks > turn on the "Day Passes" switch.
Bookings with day passes are possible only for desks with the "Hot Desk" type.
Use Cases
There are two main types of plans to give day passes in:
Give day passes in hot desk plans: 30 day passes in a monthly plan or 7 day passes in a weekly plan. All members with hot desk plans then need to book a hot desk with a day pass every day to check in. This system will help maintain an accurate hot desk occupancy overview every day.
Give a certain number of day passes in other plans to allow members access to the space only a limited number of times per period. For example, if you offer a plan that allows members to visit the space 10 times per month, create a plan with a monthly period and give 10 day passes in it.
If you used the credit system previously, refer to this guide for instructions on a seamless transition to day passes.
How members book with day passes
Once users sign up for a plan with day passes or administrators create a subscription for them, they receive day passes to their balance.
Members use day passes to book a hot desk on the desired dates during the subscription period.
Members can use day passes to book desks only on dates within their current subscription period and not beyond it.
3. If unused, day passes expire at the end of the subscription period.
Only members can use day passes for hot desk bookings. Nonmembers book a hot desk for money.
Members can book desks with day passes only in their home location and cannot use day passes across other locations in your network.
