Booker Active Booking Limit

The Booker active booking limit stops one guest from monopolizing your schedule by capping how many "active" (upcoming) bookings they can hold.


Why use it


  • Prevent calendar hogging: one guest can't book five consecutive Mondays.
  • Fair access: in coaching, office hours, or limited consultations, everyone gets a chance.
  • Reduce no-show impact: limiting to one active booking cuts the risk of a serial no-show.
  • Enforce service tiers: cap sessions per guest by email address.


Set it up


  1. Open Event Types and click the event.
  2. Open the Limits tab.
  3. Toggle Booker active booking limit ON and set the count (usually 1).



  1. Optionally toggle Offer to reschedule last active booking to chosen time slot so guests can move their existing meeting instead of being blocked.



  1. Click Save.


How it works


If a guest (identified by email) tries to book while they already have an upcoming session, the booking is blocked:


Could not book the meeting. Booker maximum active booking limit exceeded.


With the reschedule option on, they're instead offered to move their existing booking to the new time.


Note: the limit is by email address — a different email counts as a new person. For collective and team events, it applies to that event type.
