Online Booking Pages

Online Booking Pages allow your clients to book appointments directly on your calendars through the web. You can access the feature via the “Booking Pages” tab.

 

Booking pages have now been split into Availability Pages and Signup Pages.  Availability Pages allow your clients to generate individual appointments on your calendar and Signup Pages allow your clients to add themselves to existing appointments such as classes, conferences, etc.
