If you run a dog field, you know the pattern. The same customers come every week, same day, same time. They love your field. They always rebook. But every single week, they have to go through the booking process again — find the slot, fill in the form, enter payment details. And every week, there is a risk they forget, get distracted, or find the slot has been taken by someone else.
That changes today. Recurring bookings are now live on Paddli.
What Are Recurring Bookings?
Recurring bookings let your customers book a slot once and have it repeat automatically — weekly or fortnightly. Their payment method is saved securely, and each session is charged automatically before it happens. No manual rebooking, no risk of losing their preferred time.
Why This Matters for Dog Field Owners
Most dog field customers are regulars. They come at the same time every week because their dog needs routine and they have found a slot that works with their schedule. Recurring bookings turn these one-time weekly bookings into guaranteed income.
- Predictable revenue — know exactly what your weekly baseline looks like
- Less admin — no chasing customers to rebook, no manual diary entries
- Happier customers — regulars never lose their favourite slot to someone else
- Better capacity planning — know which slots are locked in and which are free to promote
How It Works
From the customer's perspective, it is simple:
- They book their preferred slot as normal
- At checkout, they choose to repeat it weekly or fortnightly
- Their payment method is saved securely via Stripe
- Each session is booked and charged automatically going forward
Customers can pause or cancel at any time. If you need to block a date for maintenance or holidays, the recurring booking skips that week and the customer is notified automatically.
Who Benefits Most?
We have seen a few clear use cases since building this feature:
- Owners of reactive dogs who need the same quiet slot every week
- Dog trainers who use fields for regular recall or agility sessions
- Families with routines — Saturday morning field time is sacred
- Multi-field owners who want a reliable base of recurring income across their fields
