Wix Bookings: Selling Services as Products
3 min
Selling a specific service you provide as a single "product" with one predefined price, instead of charging billable hours, can help simplify the purchasing process for your clients.
For example, instead of having clients book multiple appointments, you can offer a "5-year Family Financial Plan," and sell it like a pre-packaged product. Other examples include “Tax Return Preparation” for accountants or “Contract Drafting” for lawyers.
This clarity on cost, scope and value makes these services easier and more appealing to buy. It also gives clients the freedom to book and pay without having to commit to specific dates and times upfront.
Before you begin:
- Make sure that you add Wix Stores to your site.
- To sell products, you need to upgrade your site to a Premium plan or Studio plan that allows you to accept payments.
- Review the legal requirements for Wix features before adding Wix Stores.
- When selling your services as products, you will need to manually schedule any appointments in your Booking calendar.
