ApproveThis manages your SimplyBook.me Integration approvals.

Two Platforms, One Powerful Workflow

Businesses using SimplyBook.me already know the value of automated scheduling - but what happens after the appointment gets booked? Manual approval processes create bottlenecks that slow down operations and frustrate both staff and clients. This is where ApproveThis transforms your workflow. By connecting these platforms through Zapier, you create a closed-loop system where bookings automatically trigger approval workflows, and decisions automatically update your scheduling operations.

Why This Integration Matters

SimplyBook.me excels at managing calendars and client interactions, while ApproveThis specializes in structured decision-making. Together, they solve three critical business challenges:

• Eliminate approval bottlenecks: 87% of employees report delays caused by manual approval processes (McKinsey)
• Maintain compliance: Automatic audit trails for every booking-related decision
• Improve client experience: Faster confirmation cycles for time-sensitive appointments

Real-World Use Cases That Deliver Results

1. High-Stakes Appointment Management

Medical clinics using SimplyBook.me for patient scheduling can automatically route complex requests through ApproveThis. When a patient books an MRI scan:

• Insurance pre-authorization triggers parallel approvals
• Radiologist availability checks happen automatically
• Patients receive conditional confirmations within minutes

Approval thresholds ensure urgent cases bypass standard queues, while calculated fields verify insurance coverage limits in real time.

2. Enterprise-Grade Resource Scheduling

For companies managing shared facilities through SimplyBook.me, ApproveThis adds critical governance layers. A law firm booking conference rooms might:

• Require partner approval for AV equipment reservations
• Auto-escalate conflicts to office managers
• Sync approved bookings directly to cleaning staff calendars

Approval groups with sequential routing ensure proper oversight without creating unnecessary delays.

3. Client Onboarding at Scale

Consulting firms using SimplyBook.me for discovery calls can automate client vetting through ApproveThis:

• New client submissions trigger compliance checks
• Conflict of interest verifications happen pre-meeting
• Auto-delegation handles approver vacations seamlessly

External clients approve NDAs directly via email without needing SimplyBook.me logins - a key advantage for B2B service providers.

Implementation Made Simple

Connecting your systems takes under 15 minutes through Zapier:

1. Create Zapier accounts for both platforms
2. Set SimplyBook.me "New Booking" as trigger
3. Map booking data to ApproveThis request fields
4. Test with live booking data

Pro Tip: Use ApproveThis' calculated fields to auto-approve repeat clients while flagging new accounts for review.

• Compliance guardrails: Automatic PDF audits for regulated industries
