Creating an appointment in the Wix Owner app

Create new appointment services on the go using the Wix Owner app. Appointments are services that clients book whenever a time slot is available. For example, a hairdresser may be available from 9 AM until 7 PM and clients can book any time that isn't already taken.

To create an appointment on the Wix Owner app:

  1. Go to your site in the Wix Owner app.
  2. Tap Manage  at the bottom.
  3. Tap Booking Services.
  4. Tap + Create New Service at the bottom.
  5. Tap Appointment.
  6. Add the following details about the appointment: 
    • Add an Image: Tap Add an Image to take a new photo or upload an existing one. 
    • Service Details: Enter the name and description of the service.
      Note: Tap the Category drop-down and select a category (if you created categories). 
    • Service Location: Tap the Location drop-down and select the location of the appointment. 
    • Staff Members: Tap Edit to choose the available staff members.
    • Service Duration: Select the Length of Session and the Time Between Sessions from the relevant drop-downs. 
    • Pricing: Tap the Price Type drop-down and select an option:
      • Fixed price: You charge a set price for the appointment.
        1. Tap Amount and enter the price. 
        2. Choose how clients pay from the Payment Preferences drop-down:

          • In person: Only accept in-person payments (before or after the appointment).
          • Online or in person: Allow clients to choose whether they pay online or in person.
          • Online deposit only: Accept an online deposit for the appointment and have clients pay the rest in person.
      • Custom price: Enter a short description of your pricing (up to 20 characters). The description appears on your site.
        Note: This means clients can't pay you online.
      • Free: Offer the service free of charge. Great for introductory appointments with clients. 
      • Varied Prices: Go to your Wix account on desktop to add varied prices to your appointments. You can charge different rates for appointments depending on the staff member, client type, service type and more.
