What are Holiday Hours?

For clarification, Holiday Hours is a feature that allows you to override your regular ordering and store hours for specific a date and time. This saves you the hassle of having to restructure your original hours and can be set individually to each location.

Best Practices

We know the holidays can be a busy time, so here are a few best practices for setting up your holiday hours.

1. Make sure you’re getting the most out of your holiday hours, and set them as soon as you know what your store’s availability will be during those times.

2. It’s a good idea to let your customers know in advance that your store will have special holiday hours, you can do this by creating a simple pop-up message or sending SMS messages or Push Notifications (for app users only) directly to your customers to make sure they are aware.
