What your Bookings plugin does

A focused WooCommerce bookings plugin. Customers pick a date and time on a product page, and the slot is held when they pay.

Bookable slots
Set fixed time slots or a flexible start and end.
Capacity
Limit how many people can book each slot.
Rules
Set confirmation and cancellation rules.
One settings page
Its own item in your WordPress admin menu, so options are easy to find and change.
Good to know: It covers slots, capacity and simple rules. A full calendar sync with outside calendars is a separate build.

Tell Ora what you need. Check the plan before you pay.

Describe your WooCommerce Bookings Plugin in your own words. Ora replies with a plan and a price. Nothing is built until you approve it.

Example request
I run a pottery studio. Let customers book a 2-hour class on Saturdays at 10 and 2, with up to 8 people each. Customers can cancel up to 48 hours before.

Ora
Here is the plan:
  • Saturday classes at 10:00 and 14:00
  • Maximum 8 people per slot
  • Cancellation up to 48 hours before
  • Booking confirmed after payment
  • A settings page in its own menu in your WordPress admin
Complex build · $39 once
In this build: Outside calendar sync and staff scheduling are not in this plan. Reminders by SMS are not included.
Want more? Add it to your request:
  • Booking reminder. Email each customer 24 hours before their booking.
  • Resources. Let customers pick a room or a staff member when they book.
Add these to my request and get a quote
Ora builds it together with the plugin and the quote goes up to match. You see the new price before you pay. One plugin never costs more than $39. If it needs more than one plugin, Ora quotes each one. Or add it later as a separate build.

How to set up Bookings

Here is how to get a Bookings from idea to working plugin on your site. Most of the work is a few decisions, and these steps walk through them.

Services, rooms or rentals, their length, their price and how many can be booked at once.
2. Set the availability
Opening hours, blocked dates, minimum notice and buffers.
3. Describe it to Ora
Paste your own version of the example request on this page, or start from one of the examples, and change the details. Ora replies with a plan and a price, and nothing is built until you approve it.
4. Test on the practice site
Make a test booking on the practice site and check the order, the confirmation and that the slot is taken.
