Note: By default, Square Assistant will be enabled for most merchants. This feature is only available for merchants with online booking.

Cancellation Policy

If a client attempts to cancel or reschedule outside of the allowed window, they will see an error message similar to the one that’s displayed on your online booking site when they attempt to cancel too late. If you handle all appointment changes yourself, Square Assistant will respect that policy.
