General
Who can use rocqup?
rocqup aims to create a marketplace for health and beauty service providers and consumers (Marketplace users). Typical service providers include small businesses or soletraders in the health and beauty sector who want to create a new sales and marketing channel harnessing web, mobile and social media. A rocqup consumer is anyone who wants to pamper themselves by booking a health or beauty session and who enjoys the flexibility of instant booking 24/7.
Why can’t I book for some services?
Some businesses, although listed with rocqup, may not have registered or completed their verification process. In this case, the service provider details will be listed, but instant booking will not be available. The same will apply for a service provider who has run out of rocqup credit and has not opted in for auto credit top-up option. If it’s one of your favourite salons, ask them to sign up!
Why is the calendar showing that I am not working on a particular day when I have configured my hours to be working at that time?
Check that you have configured all the hours in 24-hour time. If you have entered 06:30 for example for 6:30PM, you will need to change the time to 18:30. Change all times to 24-hour time and then check the calendar again
We’ve had a few ‘whoops’ moments where Providers have accidentally deleted their site, subsequently deleting all their services and options. As this is a significant step in the process, we’re happy to do this for you. Please email us if you have accidentally entered an additional site and would like to have it removed.
