Collect Client Reviews After Every Appointment
When you mark a booking completed, SchedulingKit waits the delay you choose (24 hours by default) and emails the client a private review link. They leave 1–5 stars and a comment, you approve or reject it and can reply, and approved reviews show with your average rating on your booking site and service pages. Reviews are on the Standard plan and up.
Review management here means collecting and publishing first-party reviews from clients who actually booked with you. SchedulingKit sends an email review request after a booking is marked completed, lets you moderate and reply, and shows approved reviews on your booking site and service pages. It doesn't collect, import, or monitor reviews on Google, Yelp or Facebook, send review requests by SMS, or provide review widgets or sentiment analysis.
How Review Collection Works in SchedulingKit
From the email request after an appointment to an approved review on your booking site.
Delayed Email Requests
Turn reviews on (they're off by default) and set a delay from 1 to 168 hours after a booking is marked completed. The client gets an email with a private review link. Requests are sent by email, not SMS.
Moderation & Approval
New reviews wait for your approval. Approve genuine feedback, reject what you don't want to publish, or turn on auto-approve for reviews at or above a star rating you choose.
Reply to Reviews
Reply to a review from your dashboard. The client can see your reply in their client portal, so thanks and follow-ups reach the person who wrote the review.
Display on Your Booking Site
Approved reviews and your average rating appear on your booking site and service pages, where prospective clients decide to book.
Tied to Real Bookings
Each review link belongs to a specific completed booking, so published reviews come from clients who actually visited.
Star Rating and Comment
Clients choose 1 to 5 stars and add a comment. They can also leave reviews for past bookings from the client portal.
How Review Management Works
Four steps from a completed appointment to a published review.
Mark the Booking Completed
After the appointment, mark the booking completed. SchedulingKit waits the delay you set (1 to 168 hours, 24 by default) and then emails the client a review request.
Client Leaves a Review
The client opens the private link, picks a 1–5 star rating and writes a comment. The review is tied to that booking.
You Moderate & Reply
The review lands in your dashboard. Approve or reject it, or let reviews above your auto-approve threshold publish on their own, and reply if you like. The client sees your reply in their portal.
Reviews Appear on Your Booking Site
Approved reviews and your average rating show on your booking site and service pages, so new visitors see feedback from real clients.
Why Client Reviews Matter for Service Businesses
Client reviews are one of the first things prospective customers look at when evaluating a service business. When someone searches for a therapist, salon, fitness trainer, or consultant, they often check reviews before they check pricing. A steady stream of recent, positive reviews signals trustworthiness and quality.
For service businesses using scheduling software, building the request into the booking workflow removes the most common barrier: remembering to ask. SchedulingKit sends the request after the appointment, at the delay you choose, while the client's experience is still fresh.
Reviews also give you feedback you can act on. Reading what clients say about your services helps you spot what's working and what isn't, and replying shows clients that you pay attention. If you also want reviews on Google or other public sites, ask for those separately; SchedulingKit's reviews live on your booking site.
Combined with appointment reminders and team scheduling, review requests round out the client experience from booking to follow-up.
