# Bookings

Every booking lands in one list, whether it came from your website, was added by your team, or arrived through another channel. The list is organised around what you need to do: trips coming up, money to collect and payments to check.

::: info Where to find it
Console › Bookings › All bookings
:::

## Find a booking

The list has views across the top:

| View | Shows |
|---|---|
| All | Every booking |
| Upcoming trips | Live bookings with a trip still to come |
| Balance to collect | Bookings with money still owed |
| Awaiting payment | Checkouts started but not yet paid, and payments to check |
| Past trips | Trips that have happened |
| Cancelled | Cancelled bookings |

Use **Search bookings** (reference, name or email) and the filters: tour, **Status**, **Channel** and trip dates (**Trips from**, **Trips to**). On phones, channel and dates sit behind **More filters**. Sort by **Newest first** or **Soonest trip**.

Click a row for a quick preview, or **Open booking** for the full page.

## Booking statuses

| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Pending payment | The traveller is at checkout and their seats are held, or a payment is being checked |
| Deposit paid | A deposit is paid; a balance is still due |
| Confirmed | Paid in full (or confirmed by your team) |
| Completed | The trip has taken place |
| Cancelled | Cancelled by you; seats went back on sale |
| Expired | Checkout wasn't paid in time; seats went back on sale |

::: tip Late payments
If a traveller pays just after their checkout expired, Tourtify reinstates the booking automatically when seats are still free ("Booking reinstated after a late payment"). If the seats were taken, the booking is flagged so you can refund.
