Can BookingPress send reminders to reduce no-shows?

Yes. Automatic confirmations and timed reminders go out by email, SMS and WhatsApp, so fewer clients forget their appointment.

Can customers choose a specific staff member?

Yes. Clients can pick a preferred stylist or simply choose "any available" and BookingPress books the first open slot.

Can I sync appointments with Google Calendar?

Yes. Two-way sync with Google Calendar and Outlook keeps personal plans and salon bookings in one place and prevents double-bookings.

Can I use BookingPress with Elementor or Gutenberg?

Yes. Add the booking form to any page with a shortcode or block. BookingPress works with Gutenberg, Elementor, Divi, WPBakery and more.

Q: Does BookingPress work for spas and beauty salons?

Questions salon owners ask

Your salon booking questions, answered

What is a BookingPress salon booking system?+

BookingPress is a complete WordPress booking plugin for your salon and spa businesses. It lets your customers book your services online while making it simpler for you to manage unlimited services, stylists, schedules, locations and payments.

Can customers book salon appointments online with BookingPress?+

Yes, indeed. With BookingPress, your customers can pick the service they want, select their favorite stylist, the available time slot and book their salon appointment online from your salon website.

Can I manage multiple stylists?+

Yes, you can. You can add an endless number of stylists to the BookingPress salon scheduling system and assign the services each one offers. Your team can then manage their appointments from their own staff member dashboard, while customers can choose their favourite stylist when booking.

Can each stylist have different working hours?+

Yes, indeed. Each of your stylists can have their own working hours, breaks, holidays, and days off. This means you can manage different schedules for your team without affecting the availability of other stylists.

Can I accept deposits or full payments?+

Yes. Collect either a deposit or the full appointment amount when customers book online through 22+ payment gateways in BookingPress. Best of all, you can also set the payment rules that work best for your salon and lower the chances of last-minute cancellations.

Can BookingPress send reminders to lower no-shows? +

Yes. BookingPress sends automatic appointment reminders via channels such as email, SMS, WhatsApp and Telegram. This can lower your no-show rate as most of the customers miss appointments simply because they forget.

Can I customize the booking form for my salon? +

Yes, with ease. BookingPress lets you customize your booking form using extensive styling options. No coding or technical skills required. All it takes is a simple drag and drop, and your booking form is ready to match your salon website’s style.

Does BookingPress work for spas and beauty salons?+

Yes. BookingPress, an all-in-one salon booking WordPress plugin, works well for all spas and beauty salons. It automates most of all salon booking management tasks like sending reminders, collecting payments and managing customer data.

Can clients join a waitlist when a stylist is fully booked?+

Yes, Of Course! If a stylist or service is fully booked, BookingPress gives your client an option to join the waitlist rather than leaving your website and trying again later. Thus whenever later that appointment slot becomes available, you can manage the waitlist and give those customers a chance to book.

Can I sell gift cards and accept tips?+

Yes, you can. BookingPress allows you to offer gift cards to customers and give them the option to leave a tip when booking or paying for their appointment.

Your Salon Can Close. Your Bookings Don’t Have To.

Give your salon a booking desk that never closes with BookingPress. Start with the free plugin, or unlock all 60+ premium add-ons with a premium license. No monthly fees. No booking commissions. Ever.
