Frequently Asked Questions

Gooday (https://www.gooday.com.au)is a free platform that helps you find a time that works for everyone, make plans in seconds, and discover great places and experiences in your city. It’s available on mobile app, browser, and as a SaaS platform for hosts. Gooday removes the friction of group planning by letting friends align times, suggest great places and lock in plans without endless messaging threads. Once a time and place is set, users can book instantly, syncing with Gooday's calendar that integrates both Google and Outlook calendars. For small businesses and social clubs, Gooday provides modern booking infrastructure, 24/7 AI-powered targeted marketing and event management tools to turn your plans into reality. From social plans with friends to community events, Gooday brings everything together so people can plan faster, meet up easier and enjoy more Goodays.

Gooday solves the everyday chaos of trying to find a time that works for everyone. Most plans fall apart in group chats — messages get buried, people forget their availability, double‑book themselves, or lose track of which place was suggested. Gooday brings all of this into one simple flow, helping friends compare times, choose a place, and lock in plans in seconds. For small businesses, social clubs, and community groups, Gooday solves a different but related problem: the friction of organising events and getting people to show up. Hosts often juggle manual bookings, scattered RSVPs, and limited ways to reach new audiences. Gooday provides modern booking tools, automated event management, and a platform where locals can easily discover what they offer. Together, Gooday removes the messiness of planning for users and the operational burden for hosts, making it easier for everyone to meet up, run events, and build community.

Yes. Gooday is completely free for everyday users on the app. You can sync your calendars, find times that work for everyone, make plans, and discover great places and events in your city — all without paying a cent. For hosts, Gooday uses a simple, transparent pricing model: Small businesses • $2 booking fee per attendee for events and bookings secured • 5% commission on pre‑paid events and services, including all payment processing fees Social clubs • 5% commission on pre‑paid events and services, excluding payment processing fees This structure keeps Gooday free for users while giving hosts access to powerful booking tools, AI‑driven marketing, and event management features that help grow their community and attendance.

Gooday compares everyone’s availability, pulled from your synced Google or Outlook calendars, and instantly suggests the best times for the whole group. You set your social availability, so friends only see the times you want them to see, cross‑checked with your real availability in the background. No one ever sees your actual calendar unless you choose to share it. This means no more buried messages, forgotten “I can’t make it”, or double‑bookings. You simply share your availability, pick a time that suits everyone, and lock in the plan in seconds. And if you ever do want to share your full calendar with someone, that option is there, but it’s entirely up to you.

Yes. Gooday offers free, unlimited Google and Outlook calendar syncing directly through the app. Once connected, Gooday automatically checks your availability, prevents double‑bookings, and helps you find times that work for everyone in seconds. Calendar sync keeps all your plans up to date across devices, making group planning smoother and ensuring you never lose track of what you’ve committed to.
