We know how annoying it can be to be swamped with messages. At the same time, no one wants to miss important communication about their business just because they didn’t see it. And everyone has a different preference for how they like to be contacted. <\/p>

This is why your notification settings are flexible. You decide how you’d like us to contact you, and we’ll do the rest Read on to find out how to update your settings to suit the way you work!<\/p>

Contact Options<\/strong><\/h2>

The easiest way to manage how we contact you about different things is through the FishingBooker for Captains app. Here<\/strong><\/a>, you can customize which notifications you want to receive from us and how. Check this video out to see exactly how you can do this.<\/p>

    Types of Notifications<\/strong><\/h2>

    There are three ways in which we notify you on things you should know about. These are email, text messages, and push notifications. You can toggle each type of notification, for each type of issue we might contact you about.<\/p>

    \"three<\/figure>

    Emails are delivered to the email address you registered for your FishingBooker profile. We know that you’re often on the water without access to the internet, which is why we can also send you text messages so you don’t miss anything important.<\/p>

    Push Notifications appear on your cell phone through the FishingBooker for Captains app. You can choose which ones you receive within the app itself. Simply go to the profile section and choose which type of additional reminders you would like to receive directly to your phone.<\/p>

    Slide to the right to get the notification, and to the left to stop receiving it.<\/p>

    Now that you know how to manage your incoming messages, head over to your dashboard and update your notification settings the way it works best for you.<\/p>
