Wix Bookings: Creating Classes Using the Wix App

10 min read

Create and schedule new class services on the go using the Wix app. Classes are recurring services with sessions that clients can book, like a weekly yoga class. You have the flexibility to offer the same class with different instructors or duration, and make classes part of a pricing plan as well.

Step 1 | Create a class in the Wix app

Create a new service and choose 'Class' to get started.

To create a class in the Wix app:

Go to your site in the Wix app.
Tap Manage at the bottom.
Tip: Alternatively, you can tap Add at the bottom, then select Service and tap Class. Then skip ahead to the Step 2 section steps below.
Tap Booking Services, or tap Catalog and select Booking Services.
Tap + Create New Service at the bottom.
Tap Class.

Step 2 | Fill out your service details

Add information about what clients can expect from the class. Include a detailed description to give clients a clearer idea of what you have to offer. You can also set the maximum number of participants that can join the class.

To fill out your service details:

Add your service details:
- Name: Enter a name for the class.
- Category: Select a category from the drop-down menu (if you created categories).
- Tagline (optional): Enter a tagline that will appear below the service name on your app.
- Description (optional): Enter a description that will appear on the service page of your app.
- Max participants: Set the maximum number of participants that can book your service.
Tap Continue.

Step 3 | Set your price and payment details

Make your pricing clear and easy to understand. Choose how you want to charge clients per session. You can choose to set a fixed price, offer a customized price, or provide the service for free. You can also set varied prices from your desktop.

Note:

You need to create the service before you can connect a pricing plan.

To set your price and payment details per session:

Tap the Price type drop-down and select how you want to charge your client per session:
- Fixed price: You charge a set price for the class.
  1. Tap Amount and enter the price.
  2. Choose how clients pay from the Payment preferences drop-down:
    - Entire amount online: Only accept online payments for the class.
    - Entire amount in person: Only accept in-person payments (before or after the class).
    - Entire amount either online or in person: Allow clients to choose whether they pay online or in person.
    - Online deposit and the rest in person: Accept an online deposit for the class and have clients pay the rest in person. Add the deposit amount that clients need to pay online.
- Free: Offer the service free of charge. No price will be displayed for this service.
- Varied Prices: Go to your Wix account on desktop to add varied prices to your class. You can charge different rates for classes depending on the staff member, client type, service type and more.
- 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.
Tap Create Service.

Step 4 | Edit or add additional service details

Finalize your service details by adding pricing plans, selecting your service location, and assigning resources. Decide whether to show the class on your service list or keep it hidden until you're ready to take bookings. To maximize exposure and attract clients quickly, make your service visible right after creating it.

Step 4 | Schedule when the class is offered

Now you can schedule when the class is offered, how often it repeats (e.g. every 2 weeks), who leads the class, and more.

When you're done, you can go back and make edits or schedule the classes at additional times with different details. For example, you have the flexibility to schedule the same yoga service on Monday mornings, led by one instructor, and on Thursday nights, led by another.
