Invoices and bookings
How do I set up my booking page?
Switch on Bookings, add one thing customers can book, and share the link: the page takes bookings and sends the confirmations and reminders. An admin opens Settings, Integrations and the Bookings card, and switches it on. It needs your business name, and either a connected WhatsApp number or an email address in your business details. Your page gets an address made from your business name, which you can change (small letters, numbers and hyphens); links and QR codes you already shared stop working when you change it. The page opens as soon as it has one service. Add Appointment (30 minutes) with one tap, or add your own: a name, how long it takes, an optional price, how it happens (in person, phone call, video call or other) and where. A price is only shown to the customer, unless you ask for an advance to hold the slot. Then check Working hours and Booking rules. A new calendar is open Monday to Saturday, 9 am to 6 pm, with start times every 30 minutes, 2 hours of notice and bookings up to 60 days ahead. Give a day two sets of hours for a break, list your closed dates, leave a gap after each booking, and say how many customers you can serve at the same time (1 to 50). On the Bookings page, Share booking page shows the link and a QR code you can download and print. Customers pick a service, a day and a time, give their name and WhatsApp number, and are booked. If you have added the people who take bookings, the page first asks Choose who; if the service asks for an advance, the booking is confirmed once that is paid. Confirmations and reminders (1 day before and 1 hour before, unless you change them; up to 4 reminders) go from your own WhatsApp number once WhatsApp has approved the messages Fliok creates on your account. Until then they go by email, to customers who gave an address.
