We highly recommend entering a mobile phone number for each Client as there are several communication features of the MarketBox platform that can be configured to work with a mobile device, such as asking your clients to rate their completed booking or leave an optional tip for their Provider.

5. Ensure the 'Send email invite to new client' switch is set On. The Admin user who creates the User will also receive a copy of the Welcome email for reference.
