Use this guide to publish a simple booking page first. You can add payments, themes, and deeper settings once the core booking flow works.

1. Create your account

Start by creating an Omnibooking account with the email address you want tied to your business. After signing in, the dashboard becomes the place where you manage your booking page, services, clients, events, and settings.

Before moving on, confirm:
  • Your account email is correct.
  • You can access the dashboard.
  • Your business name is ready to use on the booking page.

2. Set your booking page basics

Your booking page is the public link clients use to book with you. Keep the page name clear and recognizable, then choose a booking URL you can comfortably share in messages, social profiles, and printed materials.

Keep it simple: Use your business name or a short version of it. A clear URL is easier for clients to trust and remember.

3. Add your services

Create the services clients should be able to book. Each service should have a plain name, accurate duration, and enough detail for clients to know what they are choosing.

Add service records before sharing your link so the public booking page has meaningful choices from day one.

Name

Use labels clients already understand, such as Consultation, Deep Clean, Portrait Session, or Private Training.

Duration

Set the real amount of time you need, including prep, cleanup, or transition time when it matters.

Price

Show a clear price when it helps clients decide. Use Stripe Connect later if you need payment during booking.

4. Set your availability

Availability controls when clients can book. Add the hours you want open, then block out breaks, travel time, admin time, or anything else that keeps your day realistic.

Schedule settings showing booking approval, delay buffer, and weekly open hours
Schedule settings define which times are bookable and how much notice clients need before reserving an appointment.
Good availability settings answer:
  • What days do you accept bookings?
  • What hours should be visible to clients?
  • Do you need breaks between appointments?
  • Should clients be allowed to book last minute?

5. Test the client flow

Before sharing the link widely, open your booking page like a client would. Choose a service, pick a time, enter client details, and confirm that the flow makes sense from start to finish.

Test with a normal client question in mind: Can someone understand what to book, when it is available, and what happens after they submit?

6. Share your booking link

Once the page is ready, place the link where clients already look for you. Start with the channels you actively use and add more over time.

Website

Add the booking link to your contact page, service page, or primary call-to-action button.

Social profiles

Use the link in profile bios, pinned posts, direct messages, or story highlights.

Messages and QR codes

Send the link directly or put it behind a QR code for flyers, cards, signs, or in-person events.

7. Add payments when needed

If you need deposits, paid appointments, or stronger booking commitment, connect Stripe from your integration settings. Keep the first payment rule simple and test it before using it with real clients.
