Features

Everything a booking needs, and nothing it doesn't.

A public booking page for customers, and the screens behind it for you: locations, services, hours, holidays, staff and the appointments themselves.

For customers

The booking page

What your customers see when they follow your link: pick a service, a day and a time, leave their details, and they are booked.

A link for every location

Each published location has its own booking page. A second link covers the whole organization and asks the customer to choose a location first.

Only times you can take

Days without business hours and your holidays are greyed out, times already in the past are skipped, and a time disappears once it is full.

Your brand on the page

Your organization's name and logo head the page, with the name of the location being booked.

Short to fill in

An email address is all a customer must give. Name, phone number and address are optional.

A map of the location

Once you have placed a location on the map, its booking page shows it, so customers know where they are going.

Staff-only services stay private

Mark a service as hidden from customers and it is left off the booking page, while your staff can still book it.

Phone, computer or keyboard

The page works on phones and computers, and a customer can book with the keyboard alone: our tests do exactly that.

Confirmations

After the booking

Every booking ends with a confirmation the customer can keep, and a way to cancel that doesn't need a phone call.

Confirmation email

Sent the moment the booking is made. Replies go to the location's email address, if you have given one.

Calendar file

The appointment comes as an .ics file, attached to the email and downloadable from the confirmation page, for Outlook, Google Calendar and Apple Calendar.

Cancel from the link

The confirmation page has a cancel button. The customer can give a reason, and gets an email with the cancelled calendar entry.

Changes reach the customer

When you move an appointment or change its service, the customer is emailed the new details and a new calendar file.

Scheduling rules

Hours, holidays and capacity

Tell it how your week works once. The booking page follows it from then on.

Business hours

Opening hours for each day of the week, for a location, or for a single service that keeps different hours.

Holidays that repeat

Close for a day or on a repeating pattern, such as every Sunday, for a location or for a single service.

Service lengths and buffers

Each service has a length, with time before and after it for getting ready and tidying up.

Capacity

Limit how many appointments a location takes at once, and how many a service takes at once.

Day to day

Managing appointments

The appointments screen is where the day happens: a calendar and a list of the same bookings.

Calendar and list

Appointments on a calendar, color-coded by service, and in a table you can filter, with cancelled ones shown or hidden.

Edit in place

Change the service, the time, or the customer's details, and mark a no-show.

Cancel a day

Closing unexpectedly? Cancel every appointment on a day at once, with a reason, and each customer is emailed.

Book on a customer's behalf

Take a booking over the phone or at the desk, including outside the limits the public page keeps to.

Export

Download the appointment list as a CSV file for a spreadsheet or your records.

Your team

Locations, staff and sign-in

One organization, as many locations as you run, and the right people in each.

Multiple locations

Each location has its own address, time zone, contact details, hours, services and booking page, and stays private until you publish it. A map on the location screen shows where it is.

Staff access

Add staff by email address, to one location or the whole organization. They sign in with that address and see what they have access to, and nothing else.

Sign in with Microsoft, Google or Apple

Work, school or personal Microsoft accounts, Google accounts and Apple IDs all work. We never see or store a password.

Reliability

Built to stay up

Your booking page is often the first thing a customer sees. It should load every time.

Nightly backups

The database is backed up every night, verified, and an encrypted copy is kept off-site.

Monitored

Errors and slow pages are reported to our own monitoring, with what we need to find and fix the cause.

See it with your own services

Setting up a location and a service takes a few minutes, and nothing is public until you publish.
