I'm trying to work out any basis on which this will do more than perhaps reduce no-shows. Not to mention the negative impact on bookings.

It allows you to charge a refundable deposit before letting clients book a spot on your existing Calendly links.

Except people are going to not make a booking in the first place. I'm certainly not putting in payment info to book a slot on someone's calendar

i.e. some no shows is better than nothing at all

And seriously how is that expected to "stop no-shows"?

It’s currently live on Product Hunt. I’d appreciate any support.

Is sending a reminders (via email or text) with an option to cancel or reschedule doesn't work?

Also, why wouldn't users use Stripe integration for the same? https://calendly.com/integration/stripe

All your Calendly workflows and reminders that you've set up will work as usual in addition to this.

Calendly Stripe integration can be used for collecting payments but this app makes it easy for you to refund anyone with just one click and keep track easily.

With Calendly, you have to do the manual work of logging into your Stripe, finding the client and so on.

Additionally, you can track your booking links here and know if a lead has opened the link, entered information, and check payment status etc..

Reminders with an option to cancel or reschedule can still cause last minute cancellations/reschedules won't they?
