Introducing HivePass: Recurring Bookings and Session Packs on HandyHive

HivePass is now live on HandyHive.

It gives customers and professionals two simple ways to work together long-term:

  • Mode A: Recurring schedules for weekly, biweekly, or monthly sessions
  • Mode B: Session packs paid upfront, then used over time

We built HivePass to solve the same pain point on both sides: too much rebooking friction.

What Is HivePass and Why We Built It

Most services are not one-time jobs. Cleaning, tutoring, personal training, and maintenance are ongoing. But traditional booking flows treat every session as a new transaction.

HivePass removes that repetition. Once a customer and professional agree on a rhythm, the platform keeps it running with reminders, timeline visibility, and clear payment tracking.

Mode A: Set Up a Weekly Recurring Schedule

After a completed booking, customers can set up a recurring plan in a few taps:

  1. Pick frequency (weekly, biweekly, monthly, or custom)
  2. Choose preferred day and time
  3. Confirm with the professional

Once both sides confirm, the schedule becomes active. Upcoming sessions are generated automatically, and recurring discounts apply consistently across sessions.

Mode B: Buy a Session Pack for Predictable Value

Session packs are ideal for categories like tutoring, coaching, and training.

Customers can buy a pack directly from the professional profile, then schedule sessions from that balance. They get a clear per-session value, a total savings view, and an expiry date in one place.

Professionals can publish and manage packs from Dashboard -> HivePass with real-time visibility into active offers.
