Transferring as a BookingTimes admin

There may be a scenario where you need transfer prepaid vouchers from a client to another. For example, a parent has purchased prepaid vouchers but they are sitting on their account, but the prepaid vouchers need to be transferred to their son/daughter’s account. This may happen when they have set up a Family Account (which shares an email address), and they have not selected the correct user before purchasing any products or making a booking, or they simply haven’t transferred them over.

Steps

  1. Navigate to the client profile of the current voucher holder

  2. Scroll down to the Vouchers or PrePaids section

  3. Click View Vouchers or View PrePaids link


  1. Check the relevant items

  2. Click Transfer Vouchers or Transfer PrePaids link at the bottom of the table


  1. Under To the Following Person on the next screen, click Set Recipient
