What is a Service Menu?


Service Menus allow you to list multiple services in one branded interface, enabling clients to book various appointments in a single flow. Each service connects to a separate Service Calendar, giving you full control over availability, staff assignment, pricing, and duration. This is especially useful for businesses that offer several services or work with multiple providers.


Key Benefits of Service Menus


Service Menus reduce friction in the scheduling process while providing full flexibility in how services are presented and booked.

  • Centralized Booking Experience: Consolidates all services into a single interface so clients can browse and book from one convenient location.

  • Optional Staff Selection: Allows clients to choose their preferred provider when enabled, giving them more control over their appointment experience.

  • Organized Service Categorization: Enables grouped service organization through Group Calendars, making it easier to manage and present related services.

  • Independent Calendar Configuration: Each service is tied to its own calendar, allowing you to define custom settings, staff, availability, and duration.

  • Flexible Booking Options: Lets clients book one or multiple services in a single session based on your configuration preferences.
