Booking policies are a set of rules that define how customers can book a
service, including:
- How early or late customers can book sessions.
- How late customers can cancel or reschedule sessions.
- How many participants customers can add to a single booking.
With the Wix Bookings Policies API, you can:
- Create a policy.
- Query policies.
- Change the default policy.

set up booking policies.
It’s important to note the following points before starting to code:
- Every site with Wix Bookings comes with a default booking policy that you can
update but can't delete.
- Be aware that daylight saving time can affect booking policies. For example,
if the time shifts an hour forward during a cancellation window, customers have
1 hour less to cancel their booking.
- Assign a policy to a service

- Booking policy: A set of rules that determine how customers can book a
service, including timeframes for booking, canceling, or rescheduling.
- Default policy: The booking policy that automatically applies to all
services on the site. While you can't delete the default policy, you can
update it or designate another policy as the default.
