Common questions

Switching from Booqable, in detail.

How long does the migration take?+
It depends on your data. There is no self-serve import today: locations, items, rates and rules are set up in the dashboard.
Do customers see anything change?+
They may. Booking pages, the customer portal and emails carry your business name. Booking pages show a small “Powered by GoGo Engine” line, and emails are sent from GoGo Engine’s sending address.
Can we keep our Booqable contract running during the cutover?+
That is between you and Booqable. GoGo Engine does not need it closed: keeping Booqable read-only while you set up GoGo Engine lets you look up anything you need.
What about historical data?+
There is no import tool today, so past bookings are not brought over automatically. Keep an export from your old tool.
