Pick-up and delivery hours can override your regular trading hours. They are particularly useful for enforcing lead times or cut-off times (e.g., only accepting orders 30 minutes after opening, or stopping orders 30 minutes before closing).
- Go to Back Office ➞ Store Settings ➞ Hours
- Under Pick-up and delivery hours, disable the Available during regular trading hours toggle

- Select the days you are open, and enter your pick-up and delivery start and end times.

Holiday Hours
Holiday hours allow you to temporarily override your regular trading hours for specific days or periods, such as public holidays or special events.
With Holiday Hours, you can:
-
Adjust trading hours for a specific day or date range (e.g., open later or close earlier).
-
Close your store for a specific day or date range (e.g., closed on Christmas Day).
