Adding services, pricing, and duration

How services, duration, and per-staff pricing work - and why duration matters more than anything else here.

Services are what customers actually book, so getting the basics right here shapes everything downstream - your calendar, your pricing, and what a customer sees when they pick a time.

Adding a service

Under Services, add a name, a duration, and a price. That’s the minimum every service needs before it can appear on your booking page.

Why duration matters most

Duration drives your calendar directly: a 45-minute haircut blocks 45 minutes, full stop. Get this wrong and you’ll either double-book yourself or leave gaps that look free but aren’t - so it’s worth getting right before you open bookings, not adjusting later once customers are already booking against it.

Grouping and your catalogue

Services can be grouped so a long list stays navigable on your booking page, and there’s no cap on how many you add - a full catalogue costs nothing extra on any plan.

Different price or duration per staff member

If your team charges differently for the same service - a senior stylist’s cut costs more than a junior’s - set a Service Variant instead of creating a duplicate service. See Per-staff pricing with Service Variants.

Bundling services together

Selling a few services as one fixed-price package - a cut and a beard trim together, say - is a combo, not a Service Variant. See Deposits, Service Variants, and combo pricing.
