How to sell your calendar bookings

Selling a consultation or a follow-up session? Parents can pick a time and pay in one go. Here is how.

You will need:

• An event (see How to set up your calendar events)
• An order form or payment page (see How to create an order form or payment page)
• A price plan (see How to create and configure a price plan)

Step 1: set up your product

1. Open the configuration of your order form or payment page.
2. Under Choose offer type, select Digital product.
3. Name your product, for example 60-minute sleep consultation.
4. Click the + icon, choose Calendar events, and select your event.
5. Set up your price plan and click Save.

Step 2: add the paid calendar

1. Click Edit page.
2. In the left panel, scroll to the Paid calendar element and drag it onto your page.

Step 3: customize the booking steps

Calendar: parents see your open dates and pick a time. In the left panel you can change the headline, the sub-headline, the button text and the time format (12 or 24 hour).

Form: parents enter their details and pay. You can change the headline, the sub-headline and the button text.

After payment, parents follow your regular order flow. If you have an upsell or downsell page, they go there. If not, they land on your thank you page.

Click Save at the top right before you leave the editor.

Emails you and the parent receive

• A booking confirmation, sent straight away.
• Reminders, based on the schedule you set for the event. By default 24 hours and 1 hour before the session.

Only confirm once payment is complete

By default, the booking confirmation goes out as soon as a parent starts paying, even if the payment fails or gets canceled afterwards. To change this, go to Settings, then Notifications, then Sales, and turn on Send the booking confirmation email only after payment is completed. This works with every payment provider, including Stripe, PayPal and Mollie.
