Custom Features

Custom Features are additional functionalities of the system that will help you to improve your business. Please check the list of Custom Features below along with their descriptions and instructions how to use.

Accept Payments

Accept Payments Custom Feature allows you to accept payments from your clients online. You can set the price for your service and when your clients make a booking, they will be redirected to the payment page. You can accept payments via Paypal, Zooz, Skrill, Stripe, LiqPay, Bitcoins, Borgun, GoCoin, 2Checkout, SquareUp, Worldpay, Alipay, Asiapay (Paydollar, Pesopay, Siampay), Robokassa, Pin Payments and Faturah.

How to use

1. Enable Accept Payments Custom Feature in the Custom Feature section.

2. In Custom Feature Settings choose payment processor and fill in the necessary details.

2.1 (Optional) set your payment timeout in the settings of Custom Feature, we recommend not less than 10-20 minutes.

2.2 (Optional) In the settings of Custom Feature you can make payment after booking mandatory or optional by setting Allow Delay payment (client will pay on place) to No or Yes.

3. In Manage//Services//Pencil icon on the Service//Service price set the price of your service.

How Accept Payments Custom Feature works

1. Client goes through the booking process and presses "Book Now" at the end.

2. He is directed to payment system and unconfirmed booking appears in the admin calendar with red mark "not paid" to reserve this time so that no other person can accidentally book the same slot and there were no double bookings.

3. After that, client has 2 options:

3.1. pay and the payment processor will send us confirmation that client paid and we will approve it on our side (mark in calendar will become Green).

3.2. do not finish paying, client is directed to payment system, but then he closes the page, closes the browser, or simply leaves it open without any actions for a long period of time. In this case, the system will wait until timeout you set up in the settings of Accept payments Custom Feature will end and will cancel the non-paid booking. Emails to client and admin won't be sent about the timed out bookings because they were never finished. Same happens if the client paid, but paid later than timeout. In this case, if you receive a notification from PayPal/Stripe that client paid for a booking but too late, you can go to Reports//Payment transactions and approve this booking manually.

What is "Allow delay payment" option

When your clients are transferred to the payment page after "Details" tab, they usually have several options: your payment processor (1 or several) and "Pay Later". "Pay Later" means that client will pay right on the place when he/she arrives to the appointment. In your Dashboard, when you click on appointment, such booking in the field "service price" will have remark (Pay Later). If you want to disable "Pay later" option, choose "No" for "Allow delay payment" in the settings of Accept Payments Custom Feature.

How to change the currency for payments

You can change the currency in the settings of Accept Payments Custom Feature and in Manage//Services//pencil icon on the Service//Service price//Currency.
Please note: some payment processors do not support all currencies. Before settings the currency, check if the selected payment processor supports it.

How to add tax to services

Yes, you can set it in the settings of Accept payments Custom Feature in the field "Sales tax".

How to set the confirmation fee, not the whole price for the service

1. Enable "Accept Payments" Custom Feature in the the Custom Feature section.

2. Choose payment processor and fill in the necessary details.

3. In Manage//Services//pencil icon on the Service//Service price set the price of your service (the confirmation fee you want to receive). In the description of the service write actual price.

Can I use other payment processor not listed in the Accept Payments Custom Feature?

Yes, please read this article and if you have a developer who can help you write the necessary code, we will gladly add it to our system.

text - usually used for short answers

text area - use this type of filed if you expect lengthy explanations from your clients

checkbox - creates a checkbox that clients should either check or leave unchecked. Useful for questions that require binary answer, for example "I will need additional services".

select - creates a drop down list with the ability to choose only 1 option. In order to create this field, you will need to enter comma separated list of values in the field "values". Example: Green, Red, Black, Blue. Also enter the Default value that will be assigned if nothing is chosen from the list.

5. Make it rather obligatory or not with the help of checkbox "make not obligatory".

6. If you wish to relate fields with certain services, click on the third green icon near the field (it is after you already created the field) and check the boxes near corresponding services.

Calendar Sync

Calendar Sync Custom Feature is used for 2-way synchronization with Google and Outlook calendars. You can export bookings from SimplyBook to Google or Outlook calendars and also block times occupied by Google/Outlook Calendar event in your SimplyBook dashboard.

5. Check the box "sync busy time" if you want to block times in the simplybook dashboard occupied by Google/Outlook Calendar events.

6. All Google/Outlook calendar events will block time in SimplyBook only in Service Provider view in calendar (because you connect calendar to provider). Nothing will be visible in Day and Week view because those views are for all providers (if you have several providers, it would be impossible to show all Google/Outlook events in 1 calendar).

Simplybook doesn’t sync with Google/Outlook calendar

Possible reasons:

1. please, notice that synchronization can take up to 10 mins;

2. if Google/Outlook updates calendar app, press “Export” button again to sync;

3. wrong calendar was chosen (in Custom Features//Calendar Sync//Settings//Select calendar);

4. Google calendar events should be marked as “busy” for 2-way synchronization, Outlook calendar events should not be marked as "free" to block times on the booking page.

Example from Google calendar:

Example from Outlook calendar:

SimplyBook.me event is listed twice in Google calendar

It can be because of the Google calendar setting to automatically add events from your emails. Therefore, if you receive confirmation emails with booking details, Google automatically adds them to your calendar. To turn off this option: click Settings icon in the top right corner of Google calendar//Settings//Automatically add invitations to my calendar//No.

Google Adwords and Analytics

Use the Google Analytics Custom Feature to see how many customers visit your site both on an everyday basis and during promotion campaigns. Use the adwords analytics to count how many actually book after clicking an adwords advertisement.

The Google analytics id can be found in your Google analytics accounts. Go to Analytics home, you will see a list of your sites, and on the right side of the site name, there is your analytics number.

It should be in the format: UA-XXXXXXXX-X Where XXXXXXX-X is some number.

An example of this id would be: UA-70295750-1

To start tracking visitors, you only need to set your analytics account id. However to track results of an adwords campaign you need to set up an adwords campaign conversion id and insert this id into the SimplyBook.me Custom Feature.

Sign in to your AdWords account at https://adwords.google.com.

1. Click Tools

2. Select Conversions

3. Click + to create conversions and Select Website conversions.

4. Set it up, and Save.

When you save, you will see a code like:

<script type="text/javascript">

/* <![CDATA[ */

var google_conversion_id = 1020314917; <----- This line shows the conversion code to insert into the Custom Feature settings.

var google_conversion_language = "en";

var google_conversion_format = "3";

var google_conversion_color = "ffffff";

var google_conversion_label = "O0bzCMrgj2sQpYrD5gM";

var google_remarketing_only = false;

/* ]]> */

Google conversion value value is the conversion value that you give to a client that hits your target. It can for example be set as 20 for $20 per conversion if the average price of your service is $20. We set it default to 1, which could mean $1 value per conversion but you should change this to the right value for you.
