Confirmation & redirects

After someone books, you decide what they see: Preb's built-in confirmation page, or a redirect to your own thank-you page. Set it on the Confirmation screen of the event-type editor, under Post booking experience.

The confirmation page

By default, a booked invitee lands on a clean confirmation page that reassures them it worked and gives them everything they need:

• A "Your meeting is confirmed!" header and an "Invitation sent" note pointing them to their email.
• Who they're meeting (or, for routed team events, "Your call has been assigned to…").
• The What / When / Who / Where of the booking — event, date and time in their own time zone, attendees, and the location or join link.
• Add to calendar buttons for Google Calendar, Outlook, and Microsoft Teams, plus a .ics download.
• Reschedule and Cancel links under "Need to make a change?"

You don't have to configure any of this — it works out of the box.

Custom redirect URL

To send people to your own page instead — a thank-you page, an upsell, a resources hub — choose Redirect to another page and enter the destination URL. You can also tune:

• Redirect delay — wait 3, 5, 10, or 30 seconds before sending them on.
• Redirect behaviour — open the page in the current tab or a new tab.
• Show countdown — let invitees see when they'll be redirected.
• Skip confirmation page — send them on immediately, without showing Preb's confirmation at all.

There's also a Tracking & attribution section with two switches: Pass booking data to the destination page (covered below) and Fire tracking events before redirect, which waits for your ad pixels and tags to record the conversion before the page changes.

Approved redirect domains

For your security, Preb only redirects to websites you've approved in advance. This prevents a redirect from being pointed at a malicious site.

Redirect URLs must use https://. If you later remove a website from the approved list, any saved redirect pointing there stops working — Preb re-checks at booking time.

Redirect macros

You can pass details about the booking into your redirect URL, so your thank-you page can greet the person by name or load the right booking. There are two ways:

1. Placeholders you add yourself. Drop any of these into your redirect URL and Preb fills them in for each booking:

For example, https://acme.com/thanks?ref={{booking_uid}}.

2. Automatic details. Turn on Pass booking data to the destination page and Preb automatically adds these to your URL — no placeholders needed: preb_booking_uid, preb_event_title, preb_contact_email, preb_contact_name, and preb_start_time. It also forwards the booking's ad attribution under the names the platforms use — gclid, fbclid, utm_source, utm_medium, utm_campaign, utm_content, utm_term (only the ones present) — plus preb_marketing_consent=true|false, so your thank-you page's own Google Ads, Meta or GA4 tags can record the conversion with the click ID and respect the visitor's consent. A parameter your URL already carries is never overwritten. See Attribution & UTM tracking.

Calendar invite & ICS

However you set up the confirmation, every booking also produces a real calendar invite. The invitee gets Add to calendar buttons (Google, Outlook, Teams) and a downloadable .ics file on the confirmation page and in their email, and the meeting is added to the host's connected calendar automatically — with the location or join link already filled in. There's nothing to configure; it happens for every booking.
