Rough night, holidays, kitchen down? You have three tools, from lightest to most
drastic.

## 1. Close now, with a message

From **"Close business"** in the panel:

- the app stays visible but **stops accepting orders**;
- you can write a **message for customers** ("Back on August 28th — happy
  holidays!") shown in place of the orderable menu;
- when you reopen, one click and you're back. Clear the message whenever you want.

The right choice for emergencies and short closures.

## 2. Scheduled closures (paid plans)

On paid plans you schedule closing days and holiday periods on the calendar in
advance: on those days customers see no available slots, without you having to
remember to close manually.

## 3. Unpublish the app

From **Unpublish app**: the app goes fully offline. Your address and QR stay yours
and republishing is one click. Use it for very long breaks or renovations — for
normal holidays it's overkill: the closure-with-message is better.

## Good to know

- Orders **already received** before closing remain valid: handle them normally (or
  contact customers if you can't fulfil them);
- Closing doesn't touch your menu, photos or settings: everything is as you left it
  when you reopen.
