Check how widgets can look like on your website



Widgets with predefined service, provider,category or location


This feature allows you to generate iframe code specifically for service, provider, category or location you have. For example, if you have 2 services A and B and you choose service A as predefined, the widget will open on that service, skipping the step of choosing the service. This feature may be useful if you need to display only certain services on a specific page on your website. The steps to generate the code are the same as above, only in the settings of the widget, choose the item you need to predefine.

3. You will get the code like this:

<script src="//simplybook.me/v2/widget/widget.js"></script> <script>var widget = new SimplybookWidget({"widget_type":"iframe","url":"https:\/\/companyname.simplybook.me","theme":"belle","theme_settings":{"sb_base_color":"#FF6969","body_bg_color":"#ffffff","dark_font_color":"#494949","light_font_color":"#ffffff","sb_busy":"#dad2ce","sb_available":"#d3e0f1"},"timeline":"flexible","datepicker":"top_calendar","is_rtl":false,"app_config":{"predefined": {"client": {
"name": "Mary",
"email": "mary@gmail.com",
"phone": "+1234567890"
}} }});</script>


4. As a result the details of this client will be pre-filled in the widget and there will be no need for client to provide them.

Widgets for Client Login, Packages, Memberships, Gift Cards



Please note! It currently works with iFrame widgets only and does not work with booking button and contact button widgets.

It can be done in a simple way by adding of the corresponding "navigate" element to the widget code:
