Overview
Appointment businesses often lose time to missed bookings and manual payment tracking. This add-on connects PayPal to Bookly so customers can pay when they book. Taking an upfront payment or a deposit gives clients a reason to show up, which helps reduce no-shows. PayPal is a payment method many people already know, and transactions go through its payment gateway.
Setup happens inside Bookly and needs no coding. Once PayPal is enabled, it works with Bookly's scheduling features, so your booking flow stays the same. Payment confirmations update in Bookly automatically, which cuts down on admin work. It fits salons, clinics, consultancies and other service businesses that take bookings online, including those with clients in other countries.
Features
- PayPal at checkout: Adds PayPal as a payment option in the Bookly booking process, so clients can pay for their appointments with a method they already trust.
- Secure transaction processing: Payments are handled through PayPal's payment gateway, so card and account details are processed by PayPal during the booking checkout.
- International payments: Supports clients around the world, letting them book and pay using their preferred currency and payment method.
- Upfront payments and deposits: Lets you collect payment or a deposit when the appointment is booked, which helps reduce no-shows and secure the booking.
- No-code setup in Bookly: Configuration takes place within Bookly itself and requires no coding, so you can enable PayPal without technical work.
- Mobile-friendly payment: The payment experience works for customers booking on any device, including phones and tablets.
- Automatic payment confirmation: Payment confirmations update in Bookly on their own, which cuts down on administrative tasks in your booking management.
- Works with Bookly scheduling: Compatible with Bookly's full range of scheduling features, so your existing booking workflow keeps running as before.
