@OilMan Welcome to the community. I would suggest Square appointments.

 

This lets customers:

 

  • Book a time

  • Choose a service (oil change, synthetic, etc.)

  • Enter their info

  • Pay or prepay

Square even gives you a free booking website where customers can schedule 24/7 and it syncs with your calendar.

 

I don't use Square appointments, so below is a copy/paste of how to set it up.

 

How to structure it

 

 

 

1️⃣ Create services (not items)

 

Set up things like:

 

  • Basic Oil Change

  • Full Synthetic

  • Diesel Service

  • Add-ons (filter, tire rotation, etc.)

 

 

You can define:

 

  • Price

  • Duration

  • Travel buffer time

 

 


 

 

2️⃣ Turn on online booking

 

Go to:

Dashboard → Appointments → Online Booking

 

This creates a simple site where:

 

  • Customers pick a service

  • Choose a time

  • Book instantly

 

 

You can also require deposits or full payment upfront.

 


 

 

3️⃣ Customize your website

 

You can build a full Square site or keep it simple:

 

  • Homepage (what you do, service area)

  • “Book Now” button

  • Service list

 

 

Square even lets you create a full website with booking + payments all in one place.

 


 

 

🚗 Mobile business tips (important)

 

 

Since you’re mobile:

 

  • Put service area in description (ex: “within 25 miles”)

  • Add custom fields like:

     

    • Vehicle type

    • Address

    • Preferred time

     

  • Add buffer time between jobs so you’re not stacked
