FAQs

Quick answers to common questions. We’ll keep refining this as the platform evolves.

What is Fill My Slot?
Fill My Slot is an entertainment booking platform built around trusted availability. It helps venues and private bookers find acts who are actually free, and helps artists keep their shows, diary and booking conversations in one place.
How do venues and bookers find an act?
Bookers can browse artist profiles and show pages, then search by date, time, location and category. Fill My Slot uses the artist’s verified diary and existing bookings to help avoid showing acts as available when they are already busy.
Why do artists need to fill in their diary?
Your diary is the source of truth for your availability. If you are already booked, unavailable or holding a private event, your diary helps stop you appearing as free for a conflicting enquiry.
What does “Verify diary” mean?
Diary verification is a quick confirmation that your diary is up to date. Verified diaries help bookers trust the availability they see. If your verification is close to expiring or has expired, Fill My Slot can remind you to refresh it.
What happens if my diary verification expires?
If your diary verification expires, your public availability is no longer treated as trusted. This helps protect bookers from relying on stale information, and gives active artists a reason to keep their diary current.
Can I add private gigs?
Yes. You can mark a diary entry as a private gig. It will still block your availability, but it will not appear in the public Upcoming Gigs section on your show pages. This is useful for weddings, private parties and events where you do not want people turning up uninvited.
Can I hide the public availability widget?
Yes. Artists can choose whether the public availability widget appears on their profile and show pages. Turning it off hides the widget publicly, while your diary can still be used internally to manage availability.
Do I need a show page?
A show page is your shop window for a specific act, such as karaoke, DJ, tribute, acoustic set or party show. It helps bookers understand exactly what they are hiring and lets you market each act clearly.
Can I have multiple shows under one profile?
Yes. Your profile represents you or your business, while shows represent the different acts you offer. You can keep your diary in one place while giving each act its own public page.
Does Fill My Slot take a cut of my bookings?
No. Fill My Slot does not take commission from bookings. Booking terms, payments and agreements are handled directly between the booker and the artist.
Is messaging real-time?
Messaging is designed to keep booking conversations organised and easy to follow. Notifications help you avoid missing important enquiries, proposals and updates.
How do I get support or report a bug?
Use the contact or support options inside the app. If you are reporting a bug, include what you were doing, what happened, and what you expected to happen.
