Client Fields Custom Feature
From SimplyBook.me
Get information from clients upon sign up that relates to the client. An example of such information could be, "Name of spouse", or "Date of Birth" since this is fixed information and would generally not change between bookings.
Please note! When you enable Client Fields custom feature Client Login will be enabled as well.
