Bookly is the WordPress booking software trusted by 60,000+ active sites, with over 3 million downloads and a 4.5-star rating on WordPress.org. Running directly inside WordPress, it helps businesses manage bookings, payments, and reminders without a separate SaaS platform. Whether you run a salon, studio, or service business, the four capabilities below show how Bookly works in practice.

See your entire schedule at a glance. Bookly’s calendar displays all bookings by day, week, or month, with filters for staff, service, or location.

Manage appointments and update statuses in seconds – all from your WordPress dashboard.

Bookly’s booking form can be added to any WordPress page with a shortcode and automatically matches your site’s theme. Customers select a service, choose a time, and book in a mobile-friendly interface.

Custom fields let you collect the information you need before the appointment, including intake details and optional add-on services.

Bookly automatically sends confirmations, reminders, and follow-ups by email, SMS, or WhatsApp. Set the timing once and every customer receives the right message automatically.

Use built-in templates or customize messages for specific services. Automated reminders help reduce no-shows and keep schedules running smoothly.

Connect Bookly to Google Calendar for two-way synchronization. New bookings appear in Google Calendar instantly, while blocked time stays unavailable for booking.

Support for multiple staff calendars, Google accounts, and recurring sync keeps your team’s schedules aligned automatically.
