Wix Bookings: Offering Services at Multiple Locations
8 min read
Offer your services at multiple business locations to provide your clients and staff more choices and flexibility. You can create appointments and classes that occur at more than one location or create separate services for each branch.
Important:
For services that require resources, make sure you add the relevant resource types, and their amount, to each of your locations to ensure a smooth experience for your clients and staff. Learn more about adding resources to your services at different locations.
Notes:
- When clients book services, the emails go to the email address connected to the default business location.
- Your dashboard's time zone doesn't change if you have multiple locations. Only the time zone for your default location appears on your site.
