# Links

**Which link should I give parents — the account-level scheduling link, or the event-specific link?**

**If you only have one open event:** You can use either link — both will take parents to the same place. Use the **account-level** link, found under **Global Setup / Business / Account URL**.

**If you have multiple open events:** The account-level link will show parents **all** open events in a pull-down to choose from. The event-specific link takes parents directly to that one event — but if other events are also open, parents will still see the event table and can toggle to the others.

> To direct parents to **only one event**, with no option to toggle to others, use the **[Category Option](https://help.pickatime.com/books/additional-event-features/page/category-options)** instead.

#### Customizing Your Account URL

1. Check the box **"Set Custom URL."**
2. Enter your preferred text — this becomes the `XXX` portion of `https://pickatime.com/XXX`.

**Example:** Entering `myschool` creates `https://pickatime.com/myschool`.

> New custom URLs take **5–10 minutes** to become active.
