**Please note**: You do not need to refund the guest when changing the date or time of a prepaid reservation because you will “Book Without Payment”.

1.  From the Reservation Profile, tap the 3 dots on the upper right-hand corner.
2.  Select “Rebook Reservation”.
3.  Select the date or time.
4.  If a credit card is selected, click the last 4 digits of the credit card and click the credit card again to **deselect** it. When you deselect the credit card, you should see "Add Payment" on the bottom right-hand corner.
5.  Tap “Change”.

If a guest wants to move a booking for the same party size to a new date or time, you’ll want to change the reservation to the new chosen date and time and select “Book without payment”. If you do not book without payment, Resy OS will charge the guest a second time for the change. Therefore, booking the change without payment leaves the original charge intact while not charging the guest a second time.
