Summary
This article covers the email notification templates available in ZenMaid, which ones can be sent manually, and where to send them from.
Important
We don’t support creating new or fully custom email templates, but you can edit any of the existing ones, such as the Appointment Confirmation or Appointment Follow-Up, and adjust the wording to fit your needs. You can also use variables like {{appointment.service_price}} or {{appointment.price_with_tax}} to display dynamic details.
For bulk email sending, we integrate with Mailchimp. You can connect Mailchimp with Zapier at no cost, and you don’t need to learn Zapier yourself. Just create an account, and our team will handle the setup. We chose Mailchimp because it is intuitive and easy to us
Specifically for the Booking Form, it’s not possible to customize Booking Confirmation emails/SMS for each individual form.
If the template is not listed in this article, then it does not exist.
The Secondary Appointment Reminder email can be sent automatically or manually from an appointment. Its SMS version sends automatically only.
Cleaning Complete and OMW Text are only available as text messages. There is no email version. See SMS Templates in ZenMaid.

You can edit any template by typing out a message, adding links, and using {{wildcards}}. For automated templates, you can choose when they’re sent.
