7. Now that you are in the settings for your multi day service lets look at **two specific settings for multi day services.**
8. These two settings would be the choice between Day/Night and what the Min/Max selectable dates are.
9. Scroll down to find **Is it a day or night booking.**
10. Select between **Day or Night bookings.**
    1. **Day booking:** if people book from the 10th to the 11th, it counts 2 days.
       1. Examples) Car rentals, bike rentals.
    2. **Night booking:** if people book from the 10th to the 11th, it counts 1 night.
       1. Examples) Hotel stays, overnight rentals.

11. Scroll down and **set your minimum and maximum bookable dates.**
    1. This determines how long the consecutive date range can be.
       1. In this example by setting it to a minimum of 3 and maximum of 3 we are basically forcing the customer to have to select 3 dates.

{% hint style="warning" %}
It is not possible to have a Multi day booking slot be released on the "checkout date". This means if someone books a day time booking from January 1st to January 2nd then it will be "-1 slots" for both of those days \
\
**So if you have a limit of 1 set than January 1st and January 2nd will be closed**
