We provide the option to create a button or link that allows clients to add a specific package directly to their shopping cart for online purchases through your website. This article will guide you through the configuration process.
Things to know:
- The ability to deep link packages on the booking widget and express checkout page is governed by the "Accessing Website Tools" access control.
- To enable online purchases for packages, the following steps must be completed:
- A payment account must be set up to process card payments. If you do not have a payment account, please email processing@mytime.com for help.
- Your account must be live.
- In the package template, ensure that "Yes" is selected for the "Enable Online Purchase" setting.
- The "Buy Packages" option must be selected in the Widget Includes dropdown
- You can choose to install either a booking widget or an Express Checkout link, depending on how you want clients to book.
- Express Checkout: Clients click a “Book Now” button and are redirected to your MyTime booking page to complete their booking. Available for free on all MyTime accounts
- Booking Widget: Clients can book directly on your website without being redirected. A pop-up appears, allowing them to complete the booking seamlessly. This option is free for Premium and Enterprise subscriptions and costs $0.75 per transaction for businesses without a Premium subscription.
- If you update the booking widget configuration, you must re-embed the widget on your website for the changes to take effect. Changes made to Express Checkout are applied automatically and do not require re-embedding.
