Can I make a service required to book?

StylistHawkErin — Tue, 20 Apr 2021 21:40:59 GMT

Hello, I'm a mobile hairstylist and I'm just setting up the online appointment booking. I have a set up fee that is required for every appointment and I'm wondering if I can have it either automatically added to each booking or as a required item in order to complete a booking? I can't seem to find any settings that would do that.

Thanks in advance.

Hi hi @StylistHawkErin + @macarenoa!

This would be considered a feature request - if this fee is required for every service, have you considered including it in the price of the service? If you really want your clients to know that a "fee" is included in the total cost of the service, you could always notate that in the description of the service. I feel like this sounds similar to how my hair stylist may have to pay booth rent, but covers that cost by including it in the cost of my appointment. I hope this helps! ✨

P.S. Welcome to the Seller Community 👋

It's not on each service, it's on each appointment. I want people to book more services per appointment so that I don't have to run all over as much and can do more services at each stop. I'm more likely to book mom and her 4 kids for haircuts if there's only a $20 fee once than if I raise the price on each haircut.
