I do not want to add product or I want to take free bookings?
Yes, it's possible. With the below configuration, customers can skip the checkout step and schedule an appointment directly.
What's the best use-case for the above feature?
For example, if the product for which you would like to take appointments is free, with the above option activated, customers will select the respective time and that slot will be booked for the customer. Customers do not need to go to the checkout flow process. We recommend this feature to use only if the product is free of cost.
How to activate the feature?
Click on 'Product Name' for the product(Appointo > Services ). Click on show in product configuration -> Check (Skip Payment for this product)
Everything else (Availability, Group Appointment Settings, Reminder Settings, etc.) is the same as before.
How is the experience from customers' point of view?
Experience is almost similar. Customers will click on the 'Schedule Your Time' Button and the Booking Calendar will popup. Once the customer selects a slot and confirms, they will be asked to fill their email, name and phone number. Once confirmed, an appointment slot will be booked.
