Ask to hold in a private group

Holds are a private-group favor: the reporter may accept or decline, and nothing is guaranteed.

Asking someone to hold a spot is only available in private groups, where members know each other. Public spots can’t be held.

In a group, open an available spot reported by another member and choose Ask reporter to hold (on the website, Ask to hold). The reporter can answer I’ll hold it or Can’t hold, and you can cancel while you wait. Other members can see that someone asked.

Only one request can be accepted; once a spot is held, it can’t take another request. If the spot is taken or closes, everyone waiting is told.

Holding is always a voluntary favor, never a reservation or a guarantee.
