Can customers book online?
Yes. Customers pick a service and an open time on a booking page or a widget on your website. One part of that piece is not live yet, and the menu shows which.
Build your ownUpdated
Build your own scheduling and booking app
You can build a scheduling app around how your business already books work, with your own services and booking rules, instead of fitting into a booking tool someone else designed. Describe your business to Corwen, answer a few questions, and it picks the scheduling pieces from a menu of 240 and builds the app. You try it on made-up appointments before you keep it.
It can be as plain as an appointment book for the front desk, or you can add online booking and deposits on top. Corwen picks a starting set, and you take pieces out or add them from the menu.
You own the app and the data, and you can keep the calendar and email you already use.
