Messaging
Keep the appointment in the Instagram thread.
Instagram carries both direct messages to a business account and lead forms run through Instagram ads. Confirmations and reminders go out on the channel the conversation already started on, with a link to reschedule rather than a request to reply.
What is switched on depends on your plan and industry pack. Ask us to confirm before you build a process on it.

What Instagram brings to your booking workflow
Reminders where they get read
A booking confirmation that lands in Instagram sits in the same thread as the question that started it.
A way out that is not a phone call
Each message carries a link to view, reschedule or cancel, so a clash gets fixed without anyone ringing you.
You can see what was sent
Every send is recorded against the booking, so a reminder that failed can be found rather than assumed.
How it works
Three steps to a connection you can trust. Follow the screens in your own account for the exact wording.
- 1
Confirm the channel
Check which Instagram sender and provider your account is set up with.
- 2
Choose the moments
Decide which bookings get a message and how long before the appointment.
- 3
Send yourself one
Run a test to a number you control and read what actually arrives.
Where Instagram sits in the catalogue
Instagram is part of the core stack — the baseline every udaybooking account can turn on, whatever it sells.
Browse the full catalogueWhere this connection helps
Beauty & wellness · Gym & fitness · Clinics
Booking-first businesses. Calendar, reminders and package or membership payments do most of the work. Instagram belongs to that stack, and udaybooking books the appointments it produces.
Messaging
The catalogue files Instagram under messaging, one of the jobs that decides when an appointment should be offered, confirmed or moved.
Instagram questions
Can someone book inside Instagram?
Messages carry a link to the booking page. The booking itself happens there, not in the chat.
What does sending cost?
That depends on your Instagram provider and the countries you message. udaybooking triggers the send; the channel bills it.
Is Instagram available on my plan?
Instagram is in udaybooking's connector catalogue, and what is switched on depends on your plan and the industry pack you run. Ask us to confirm it for your account before you build a process around it.
