Collect digital waivers and liability forms

Waivers let you capture informed consent before class day — especially important for anything physical, adventurous, or involving allergens. The waiver is presented inside the checkout flow, and attendees must explicitly confirm they've read and agreed before they can complete the booking. Every signed waiver is stored on the attendee's booking permanently, so you always have a record.

Create a waiver

  1. 1Open Settings from your dashboard and choose the Waivers tab.
  2. 2Click New waiver and give it a name you'll recognise (for example, "Physical activity release" or "Food allergy acknowledgement").
  3. 3Write or paste the waiver text. You can include headings, bullet points, and paragraphs — anything you'd put in a paper form.
  4. 4Save. The waiver is now available to attach to any class.

Attach a waiver to a class

  1. 1Open the class from your dashboard and click Edit.
  2. 2Scroll to the Waivers section and choose the waiver you created.
  3. 3Save. From this point, every new booking for that class requires the attendee to scroll through the waiver text and tick a confirmation checkbox before checkout can complete.
  4. 4Existing bookings are not retroactively affected — only new sign-ups from this point forward will be asked to sign.

View signed waivers

  1. 1Open the class and scroll to the Attendees list.
  2. 2Click any attendee to open their booking details.
  3. 3Their signed waiver appears in the booking, including a timestamp of when they accepted. You can download a PDF copy from here.

Tips for effective waivers

  • Keep waiver language clear and specific to the risk you're addressing — courts give less weight to vague blanket releases.
  • One waiver can cover all your classes, or you can write different ones for different class types (for example, one for pottery, a stricter one for fire spinning).
  • Attach the same waiver to multiple classes — edit it once in Settings and every class using it automatically gets the updated version for new sign-ups.
  • This is digital consent, not a wet signature. For high-risk activities, consult a lawyer about whether a digital checkbox satisfies local requirements.
