How to Require Clients to Re-Sign an Updated Waiver
When you update your waiver, clients who haven't signed the new version will be prompted to sign at their next booking. Here's how to set that up.
Before You Start
- Ensure your updated waiver content is ready to write (or already saved in Forms)
- Have admin access to Forms and class/appointment settings
How It Works
Zipper doesn’t have automatic version tracking for waivers. Instead, you detach the old waiver from the class or appointment type and re-attach the updated version. Anyone who hasn’t signed the new form will be prompted at their next booking.
Note: This applies to future bookings only. Clients with existing upcoming bookings may not be re-prompted unless they make a new booking after the change.
Steps
Step 1: Update the waiver form
- Navigate to: Products & Services > Forms.

- Find your waiver form and click to edit it
- Make your changes to the content
- Click: Save
Step 2: Detach the waiver from the class or appointment type
- Navigate to: Schedule > Classes (for classes) or Schedule > Appointments (for appointment types)
- Open the class or appointment type that uses the waiver
- Find the Forms or Registration section
- Remove the current waiver form (click the X or detach/unlink option)
- Click: Save
Step 3: Re-attach the updated waiver
- In the same Forms/Registration section
- Click to attach a form → Select the updated waiver form
- Click: Save
Step 4: Notify clients
- Optionally send an email letting members know your waiver has been updated
- They’ll be prompted to sign automatically when they next book — the notification just gives them a heads up
If You Have Multiple Classes Using the Same Waiver
You’ll need to repeat steps 2–3 for each class or appointment type that uses the waiver.
Tips
- Create a new version instead of editing in-place: Consider creating a new form (e.g., “Liability Waiver v2”) rather than editing the existing one. This preserves a clear record of what previous signers agreed to.
- Clients who already have bookings: They may not see the new waiver until they make a new booking. If you need all clients to sign before a specific date, contact Zipper support about your options.
Troubleshooting
Clients are still booking without signing the waiver. Check: (1) the updated waiver form is attached to the class/appointment type, not the old one, (2) the form is set to “Required” in the form settings.
I can’t find where to attach a form to a class. In the class settings, look for a Registration tab or section — forms are usually configured there rather than in the basic class details.
