id=\"A_clearer_tipping_experience\"><\/span>A clearer tipping experience<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Tipping after a booking should be straightforward.<\/p>\n<p>March delivered a collection of improvements across the tipping flow. Clients now see clearer guidance when a payment card is needed, custom tip validation appears at the right time and unnecessary steps were removed from multi-pro bookings.<\/p>\n<p>We also fixed several edge cases that could show a tip option after a cancelled booking or prevent a valid amount from being saved.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pricing_shown_more_clearly\"><\/span>Pricing shown more clearly<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Base rates are now shown beside service names when reviewing or updating a booking request in the relevant booking modal.<\/p>\n<p>We also improved pricing accuracy across booking updates, hotel surcharges and Gift Card refunds. Together, these changes help clients understand the amount shown and reduce surprises when a booking changes.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Alternative_dates_and_offers_update_properly\"><\/span>Alternative dates and offers update properly<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>When a pro suggests another date or a client accepts an alternative offer, both sides now see the updated information more reliably.<\/p>\n<p>This prevents a change from appearing to disappear and gives everyone a clearer view of what has been proposed or accepted.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_refreshed_welcome_to_Blys\"><\/span>A refreshed welcome to Blys<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The logged-out splash, sign-up and log-in experiences received updated copy and imagery.<\/p>\n<p>The refresh brought current Blys messaging into these important first-touch screens and created a more polished introduction for new and returning users.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"For_Providers\"><\/span>For Providers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"See_the_payout_in_booking_text_notifications\"><\/span>See the payout in booking text notifications<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Pros can now see the payout amount directly in the SMS sent for a new booking.<\/p>\n<p>That makes it easier to assess an opportunity quickly without opening the app simply to find the expected payout.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Review_alerts_for_every_rating\"><\/span>Review alerts for every rating<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Provider review notification emails now cover all ratings from one to five stars, not only five-star reviews.<\/p>\n<p>Each alert makes it easier to see new feedback and encourages a timely response, helping pros stay engaged with their profile and client experience.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Set_a_tighter_service_area\"><\/span>Set a tighter service area<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A new 10km radius option gives pros in dense areas more control over how far they want to travel.<\/p>\n<p>Adding a smaller option at the start of the existing range helps reduce irrelevant booking requests and makes service-area settings more useful for people who prefer to work close to home.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"For_Clients_and_Providers\"><\/span>For Clients and Providers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Smarter_protection_for_private_information\"><\/span>Smarter protection for private information<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>AI-powered checks now look for private contact information across more types of content, including chat images, reviews, profile content, booking notes and uploaded images.<\/p>\n<p>The smarter approach replaces simpler pattern matching in key areas, helping detect phone numbers and email addresses with more context while reducing avoidable false alerts.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"More_room_in_the_web_dashboard\"><\/span>More room in the web dashboard<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Clients and pros using the web app can now collapse the sidebar menu.<\/p>\n<p>This creates more space for the page they are working on and keeps navigation available without permanently occupying part of the screen.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Reliability_improvements_across_bookings_and_payments\"><\/span>Reliability improvements across bookings and payments<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>March also resolved a range of issues that could interrupt important actions.<\/p>\n<p>The improvements covered booking acceptance, couples bookings, alternative dates, payment fields on large Android screens and direct booking requests linked to deleted accounts.<\/p>\n<p>These fixes do not introduce one headline feature, but together they make booking and accepting work more dependable.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"More_improvements_are_on_the_way\"><\/span>More improvements are on the way<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>March\u2019s releases focused on clearer decisions, safer communication and removing friction from common booking and payout tasks.<\/p>\n<p>Keep an eye out for the next monthly update to see what\u2019s new.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;full_width_background&#8221;
