Wix Bookings: Creating a Class

7 min read
Classes are recurring services that clients can book without committing to attend every session. The service can be a weekly Zumba class, for example, or a daily beginner yoga class.
Start by creating the class and then schedule it as often as you like. You decide when and how often you offer a class, and how long the class lasts.
Tip:
Wix Bookings offers three different types of services - classes, courses and appointments. Make sure you choose the right type of service for your business.

Check out the full course in Wix Learn about adding classes and courses to your site to build your business. 

Step 1 | Create a class

Start by creating the class and adding the necessary information. Make sure to include specifics about what clients can expect from the class. For example, images showcasing the class experience.

Before saving, you can review what your clients see before they book their class in the Overview section.

    • Click Edit below the relevant class template.
    • Click + Start from Scratch to use a blank template.

      Note: When a class is full, the message 'Fully Booked' appears and the Book Now button changes to 'View Course'.

Step 2 | Set the price and payment options for your class

Once you add the basic information about the class, you can then choose from several pricing and payment options. Offering more options can help boost your sales.

To set the price and payment options for your class:

  3. Depending on the payment method you chose, follow the steps to set it up:

Step 3 | Setting your class location

Display where you offer the class, for example, at your business location(s) or choose a custom location somewhere else. You can also add the option to meet online with a video link. 

To set your class location:

  2. Click Edit to choose where your service is provided:

Step 6 | Customize your class with Booking preferences

Further customize your new class in the Booking preferences section. Add a customized booking policy for the class or make the class view-only to generate interest in upcoming services. 

You can also create a custom booking form for the class if you need more information from clients before they attend. 

To customize your class with Booking preferences:

  1. Scroll down and click Booking preferences.
  2. Select a Booking policy from the drop-down or choose what you want to do:
