We created this WordPress appointments plugin for all sorts of appointment-based businesses, including:
- Barbershops, hairdressers, and beauty salons
- Tutoring businesses and online classes
- Healthcare & medical centers
- Sports institutions, and fitness instructors.
Accept Payments Online or On-site
Appointments can be confirmed automatically upon booking submission, or you may opt for requesting clients to pay online.
Our scheduler plugin allows you to collect payments on your site via PayPal, Stripe, turn on Direct Bank Transfer, Square, or allow clients to choose to pay on-site. Stripe allows you to also accept payments via Bancontact, iDEAL, Giropay, SEPA Direct Debit, and SOFORT, as well as Apple Pay, Google Pay and Link.
Add More Payment Gateways with WooCommerce
If you need more than the default range of payment gateways, WooCommerce is the most powerful plugin that can help you add them in clicks. We offer smooth integration with this plugin via the custom-crafted Appointment Booking WooCommerce Payments addon.
Note: It’s a premium extension that is not included in the price of the Appointment Booking plugin.
Step-by-step Booking Wizard for Clients
Allow clients to book directly on your site! They’ll see available slots and book them right away, optionally choosing an assistant with the preferred skills/ their favorite service provider.
It’s a straightforward step-by-step process when a client selects a service, a staff member, then a date and submits a booking, not leaving the same page! A sleek, mobile-optimized booking form design delivers truly user-friendly and quick experiences for users on any device.
Appointment Reminders & Notifications
Send automated reminders and other notifications before and after the appointment. Simply designate the sending time, specify recipients and make up an email template.
You can send service-wise emails to customers as well as staff members or specific addresses.
Notifications of the Booking Status Changes
Booking confirmations, cancelations, and more. Immediate email notifications associated with bookings and respective automated booking status changes will help you reduce the client waiting time, thus managing booking much faster.
The MotoPress WordPress scheduler plugin allows you to tweak content and style of both admin and customer email notifications.
SMS Notifications
Reach out to your staff, customers, admins, or any phone number more easily with SMS.
Enable automated SMS notifications upon appointment confirmation, cancelation or payment completion. Set up micro-targeted marketing with any custom SMS alerts or notifications at any time before or after appointments.
Note: This is a premium Twilio SMS extension that is not included in the price of the Appointment Booking plugin.
Customer Accounts
Enable recurring customers to log into their personal accounts on your website and schedule appointments much faster. Provide them with more tools to view all their past and future bookings, including details such as cost and appointment time.
You can either automatically create accounts for all customers at checkout or let them decide if they want to create an account on your website.
Integration with Google Analytics
This plugin easily integrates with Google Analytics 4 to help you track ecommerce data sent through the booking widget!
Measure the number of bookings made, identify the most viewed services, and gain insights into customer behavior. Get data-driven insights and create a better service conversion strategy.
Note: This is a premium Google Analytics extension that is not included in the price of the Appointment Booking plugin.

Multiple Services Bookable at One Go
Allow your customers to add several services to cart during one submission. All appointments can be booked for different services, time, date, and employees – in just one go.
Make it easy for a customer to reserve several appointments without a need to go though the same booking procedure several times.
Manage Appointment Bookings on The Backend
Centralize all WordPress appointments in your dashboard – you can view all incoming bookings with the details, such as total cost, details of booked services (e.g. location, employee, date, time, the number of clients, etc.), and the status (whether a booking is confirmed or not).
You can manually edit personal customer info, change a booking status and update a total service cost with this Appointment Booking WordPress plugin.
Centralized Admin Bookings Calendar
Thanks to the built-in appointment booking calendar, admins, employees, and other team members can quickly and easily view all past and future bookings in their current statuses.
The reservations are centralized in one place and you can access them in a color-coded calendar view, individual booking preview, or timetable in chronological order.
Allow Booking for Groups
Note: an appointment for a group can be made only by one person who submits a reservation.
Clients can book an appointment for a group of people. For example, that can be a yoga class or an escape room reservation for several people at a time.
As an admin, you are free to configure capacity settings in the WordPress scheduler plugin by defining the maximum number of persons possible for one appointment, as well as optionally multiply the service price by the number of people.
Holistic WordPress Appointment Booking Toolset
This WordPress appointment scheduler plugin goes beyond providing you with a booking widget. It’s packed with a number of widgets you can use to build your service website further.
For example, there are dedicated widgets for featuring your team members with their contacts and experience, building individual employee profiles, designing lists of services and locations, and more.

Purchased Lifetime membership only for the appointment booking app. But the BIG draw back is customers must have to provide their e-mail address during booking BUT we want to have the e-mail field as optional or disable it. We sent text messages to our customers upon booking. Couldn’t use the plugin at all for this as we have to ask customers for their e-mail address during booking which more time consuming to book an appointment for our customers. Would really need an option where we can disable or make the customer e-mail field optional during booking on the booking page.
Hope we will see this one day with the future updates.
Thanks
Hello Yusha, thank you for your feedback, it is much appreciated. We do have such a feature request and we’re planning to have an option to make the email field optional in future plugin updates.
Hi there, I have some pre-sale questions. My client is running 2 piano studios in 2 locations.
1. Can I create separate calendar for each of the studio?
2. Also, there will be multiple purpose e.g. for recording purpose, for more than 3 people to use at the same time, etc. for user to choose for each of the studio, and so the price per hour varies depends on the purpose they choose. Is the booked plugin support these functions?
3. Can I have 1 calendar for location A and 1 calendar for location B be shown on the homepage at the same time e.g. location A calendar on rotational banner one while location B calendar on rotation banner two?
Thank you.
Hi, Yes, it is possible to add different forms with the pre-selected services, locations, etc. You may launch demo and test the plugin capabilities before the purchase
Will you be creating a mobile app like you have for the accommodation version?
Thank you for your feedback. We are actively developing it to add the most needed options so we did not plan to create the application for now.
Hello,
I wanted to use the appointment booking plugin to allow users to book an event that they find on the timetable event plugin. Is this possible?
Hi Sadie, there is no possibility to book an event from the timetable view. A customer can book a service from a booking form or from a calendar view
