# Account settings

> Configure your Sailia account, manage billing, and customize your business profile.

Your account settings control how Sailia works for your business — from your business profile and branding to payment configuration and user access. This guide walks you through the key settings you should configure when getting started.

## Business profile

Your business profile determines how your company appears to customers on the booking page and in email communications.

To update your business profile:

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open account settings">
    Navigate to **Settings** in your Sailia dashboard.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Edit your business details">
    Update your business name, contact email, phone number, and address. These details appear on booking confirmations and receipts.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save your changes">
    Click **Save** to apply the updates.
  </Step>
</Steps>

### Timezone

Your business timezone controls how dates and times are displayed across Sailia — including on the booking page, in email communications, and in the dashboard.

To set your timezone, select the correct value from the **Timezone** dropdown in your business settings and click **Save**. The dropdown lists all standard IANA timezones (for example, `Europe/London`, `America/New_York`, or `Australia/Sydney`).

<Note>
  If no timezone is set, Sailia defaults to `Europe/London`. Update this if your business operates in a different timezone to ensure booking times and schedules display correctly for your customers.
</Note>

## Booking page settings

Customize how your public [booking page](/getting-started/booking-page) looks and behaves:

* **Business name and logo** — displayed at the top of your booking page
* **Activity descriptions and images** — configured per activity in the [activities section](/activities/activities)
* **Checkout options** — control which items are available for purchase (activities, shop products, memberships, gift cards, donations)

<Tip>
  Keep your business profile up to date so customers always see accurate contact information and branding.
</Tip>

## Payment settings

Payment settings control how you accept and process payments:

| Setting               | Description                                                                                       |
| --------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Stripe connection** | Connect your Stripe account to accept card payments — see [Payments and Stripe](/payments/stripe) |
| **Donation settings** | Enable checkout donations and Gift Aid — see [Donations](/payments/donations)                     |
| **Instalment plans**  | Configure split-payment options — see [Instalment plans](/payments/instalments)                   |

<Warning>
  You must connect Stripe before you can accept online payments or use card readers at the POS. See the [Stripe setup guide](/payments/stripe#connect-stripe) for instructions.
</Warning>

## Location settings

If you operate from multiple sites, configure your [locations](/getting-started/locations) to organize activities, POS terminals, and card readers by venue.

## Staff and permissions

Manage who has access to your Sailia account and what they can do:

* **Add staff members** — create profiles for your team in [Staff management](/staff/management)
* **Assign permissions** — control access to the schedule, financial dashboard, POS, communications, and staff management using [permission groups](/staff/management#permissions)

## Integration settings

Connect Sailia to external tools from your integration settings:

| Integration                                                        | Purpose                                      |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------- |
| **[Xero](/integrations/accounting-sync)**                          | Sync payouts to Xero as categorized invoices |
| **[Adventuro](/integrations/adventuro)**                           | List activities on the Adventuro marketplace |
| **[Google Tag Manager / PostHog](/integrations/booking-tracking)** | Track booking events for analytics           |

## Notification settings

Configure how Sailia communicates with your customers:

* **Automatic emails** are sent by default for booking confirmations, refunds, and waitlist notifications — see [Notifications](/customers/notifications)
* **Custom workflows** let you set up automated email and SMS sequences — see [Automated workflows](/integrations/workflows)
* **Newsletter forms** let you capture subscribers from your website — see [Newsletter forms](/customers/newsletter-forms)
