You can repurpose a ZenMaid booking form to securely collect credit card details from existing customers. This guide walks you through creating a clean, authorization-only form (not an actual booking request).

Email Must Match Exactly: The customer must enter the same email address already on file in ZenMaid.

If they enter a different email, ZenMaid will create a duplicate profile, which you’ll need to manually merge.

This Form Should Not Be Used for Actual Bookings:
You’ll disable pricing, confirmations, and appointment creation so the form acts only as a secure credit card authorization page.

Keep Only Essential Fields:
Your form should include:

To be able to collect credit cards on your account, you need to connect a credit card processor.

Here's the article to learn how to do that:

Hover your cursor over the Bookings icon and click on "Booking Forms".

Select New Booking Form from the upper-right area of the page, beside the All Booking Forms title

Edit the title and subtitle using the pencil icons.

Title: Credit Card Authorization

Subtitle/Disclaimer:
​“This authorizes us to charge the card for agreed services. Your information will be securely stored for future transactions.”

Scroll through the form and drag any non-essential items into the right panel by using the drag handle:

Then drag Payment Info from the right panel onto the form.

Lastly, change the Form Button Caption to something like Submit Now (instead of “Book Now”).

Go to the Pricing tab and then uncheck Display price estimate next to the form.

Go to the Settings tab.

Customize your form URL — use dashes instead of spaces. For example: https://app.zenmaid.com/book/my-maid-service
​

Under Appointment Creation, choose: I want to manually confirm every appointment before they are placed on the calendar. This prevents authorization submissions from creating actual appointments.

Go to the Booking Confirmation tab:

Uncheck both:

Update headings/text to remove the word “Booking.”
​

Heading: Successfully Sent!

Text: We will contact you to confirm your details.

Click Save Changes when finished.
