What’s new in Bookly PayPal Payments Standard (Add-on) 3.4
Version 3.4
Latest
- NewAdded support for Bookly Pro 9.3
What it does
Taking appointments without payment can leave a business chasing clients afterward or dealing with empty slots when people fail to show up. This add-on brings PayPal into the Bookly booking flow so clients pay as part of making their appointment. Asking for payment upfront encourages commitment, and because the booking is confirmed after a successful payment, there is less manual follow-up for staff to handle.
The add-on works inside an existing Bookly setup and needs little configuration. Clients use PayPal's familiar checkout, which accepts payments from many countries with multiple currency options and works on phones as well as desktops. Transaction histories are available in the Bookly dashboard, and you can adjust payment workflows and notifications to match how you talk to clients. Salons, fitness centers, consultancies and other service businesses are a natural fit.
Best for
- Salons and beauty studios taking paid appointments
- Fitness centers and personal trainers using Bookly
- Consultants who want payment collected at booking
