Make Your First Booking
Book a space for yourself or a colleague — from the calendar view or directly from a space page.
Once you have at least one space set up, you’re ready to make a booking. Venuo’s calendar lets you book spaces for yourself, on behalf of a colleague, or for a group.
Option 1: Book from the calendar
- Click Now in the left navigation to open the day/week calendar
- Find the space you want to book in the space list on the left
- Click and drag the time range you want to reserve — or click a slot and fill in the form
- In the booking form:
- Title — What is this booking for? (e.g., “Team standup”)
- Date and time — Confirm the start and end time
- Notes — Optional context for approvers or attendees
- Click Confirm booking If the space requires admin approval, your booking will show as Pending until an admin confirms it. You’ll receive a notification when it’s approved or declined.
Option 2: Book via QR code
If a space has a QR code printed on its door:
- Scan the QR code with your phone camera
- The Venuo booking page for that space opens in your browser
- Select your time slot and confirm — no app install needed This also works for guest bookings — visitors without a Venuo account can book directly via the QR link if the space allows guest access.
Booking on behalf of someone else
Admins and owners can book spaces for other team members:
- Open the booking form from the calendar
- In the For field, select the team member you’re booking for
- Complete and confirm the booking — it will appear on their calendar
Understanding booking statuses
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Confirmed | Booking is approved and the slot is reserved |
| Pending | Waiting for admin approval (if the space has an approval rule) |
| Cancelled | Booking was cancelled by the booker or an admin |
