<p><strong>Serenity Booking handles every kind of booking your business takes.</strong> Whether you run 1:1 appointments, group classes with seat limits, or paid consultations with video links — configure the mode that fits and go live in minutes using the built-in setup wizard.</p>
<p>No monthly fees. No locked-behind-SaaS dashboard. All data stays in your WordPress database.</p>
<h4>Three Booking Types in One Plugin</h4>
<p><strong>Appointments</strong><br />
One-to-one bookings with staff assignment and real-time slot availability. Add buffer time between sessions, set per-staff hours, and manage holidays per location. Customers select location, service, staff, date, and time in a clean multi-step wizard.</p>
<p><strong>Group Classes</strong><br />
Schedule group sessions with a seat limit. Customers enroll, receive enrollment confirmations, and get reminder emails before each class. Manage enrollment lists and cancellations from the dashboard. Run classes standalone or alongside appointments in Both mode.</p>
<p><strong>Consultations</strong><br />
A separate booking flow built specifically for consultations. Generates a Google Meet or Zoom link automatically at time of booking and includes it in the confirmation email. Supports recurring consultation packages — book once, create a series of sessions with consolidated billing and grouped emails.</p>
<h4>Booking Wizard</h4>
<ul>
<li>Multi-step wizard: Location <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Service <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Staff <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Date & Time <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Customer Details <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Payment <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Confirm</li>
<li>Dedicated URL at <code>yourdomain.com/appointment</code> — works out of the box</li>
<li>Returning customer autofill — type a recognised email, name pre-fills instantly</li>
<li>Custom intake forms per service — collect any information before the booking is confirmed</li>
<li>Coupon and promo code support at checkout</li>
<li>Mobile-optimised — works on every screen size</li>
</ul>
<h4>Payments</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Stripe</strong> — card payments with test and live mode; optional per booking; automatic refund on cancellation</li>
<li><strong>Razorpay</strong> — full integration for INR and international payments</li>
<li>Both gateways work across all booking types: appointments, classes, and consultations</li>
<li>Payment status emails reflect the actual gateway state — no misleading “payment received” when the charge hasn’t cleared</li>
