Next, manage your meeting preferences. Your settings will apply to all Zoom meetings, and you can go back and update these anytime.

5. FAQs
Q. I have a free Zoom account. Will this work? Do l need a paid-for account?
A. Any Zoom account will work. If you subscribe to a paid account, you'll get more features and other benefits, like longer meeting times.
Q. Do my customers need to have an account with Zoom to attend a meeting?
A. No, only you have to! That’s one of the great things about Zoom. Anyone can attend a meeting, regardless of whether they have an account or not.
Q. What happens if a customer re-schedules their Zoom meeting with me? Or, what if l move a Zoom group booking?
A. If a customer re-schedules, you'll get an alert in your notification centre that the booking has been re-arranged. If you move a meeting, an email will be triggered for all attendees, and the meeting details will be included in their confirmation email. In both cases, the link remains the same and will still work. PLEASE NOTE: A rescheduled or deleted booking will not reschedule or delete the meeting in ZOOM because it is not supported by the ZOOM API:
Q. Can l turn existing bookings in my TIMIFY calendar into Zoom meetings?
A. No. You need to delete the booking and schedule a new booking that can facilitate a Zoom meeting (one of the services or group bookings that you can add in the meeting settings section of the app).
