Robina is a free, open-source booking and appointment plugin for WordPress, built for service businesses that want a capable booking system without subscription fees. It is service- and resource-centric: the bookable unit is a service with its own availability, while staff, locations and resources are optional layers you add only if you need them.
<h4>Highlights</h4>
<ul>
<li>Front-end booking widget (Vue 3). A clean multi-step wizard — Service, Date & time, Details, Confirm — added to any page with the <code>[robina_booking_form]</code> shortcode, or as a popup button with <code>[robina_booking_button]</code>.</li>
<li>Capacity-aware availability. Slots are computed from your business hours, slot step and buffers. Assign staff to a service and each one adds a parallel slot; a staff member booked anywhere counts as busy. With no staff, a service has a single capacity per location.</li>
<li>Group classes. Give a service a capacity above 1 (say 20 or 40 — there is no upper limit) and several customers can book the same session until it fills up — ideal for classes, workshops and large group sessions.</li>
<li>Staff (optional). Tag the people who provide a service, pin them to one or more locations, and give them their own weekly hours. When a customer picks a location, only the staff who work there are offered.</li>
<li>Locations (optional). Offices or branches with their own optional weekly hours; each service declares where it is available.</li>
<li>Native WordPress admin. A branded Catalog (services, categories, resources), a Month/Week/Day Calendar with in-place booking creation, plus Bookings, Customers, Staff and Locations screens — all in plain WordPress UI.</li>
<li>Email notifications to the owner and the customer on every new booking.</li>
<li>Optional online payments — Pay on site, WooCommerce, Stripe or PayPal (see “External services” below). Leave them all off for free bookings.</li>
<li>Self-contained and private. No external CDNs and no trackers; the phone-input flags and every front-end asset ship inside the plugin. Uninstalling removes Robina’s tables and options.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Service-centric by design</h4>
Robina deliberately keeps availability on the service, not on a mandatory “employee”. Staff, locations and resources are optional capacity and scope layers, so Robina also suits non-staff models such as equipment rental or table booking.
<h3>External services</h3>
By default Robina works entirely on your own site and contacts no third party. It only talks to an external service when you, the admin, enable and configure a payment gateway, and only when a customer actually chooses to pay with it. No data is sent anywhere otherwise — Robina has no “home” server and sends no telemetry or analytics.
Stripe — used only when you enable “Stripe” and enter your API keys. When a customer pays by card, Robina creates a Stripe Checkout Session and redirects the customer to Stripe’s hosted payment page, and it receives Stripe webhooks to confirm payment. Data sent to Stripe: the booking amount, currency, a short description and the customer’s email. Card details are entered on Stripe’s site, never on yours. 
Terms: https://stripe.com/legal — Privacy: https://stripe.com/privacy
PayPal — used only when you enable “PayPal” and enter your client ID and secret. When a customer pays with PayPal, Robina creates a PayPal order, redirects the customer to PayPal to approve it, then captures it on return. Data sent to PayPal: the booking amount, currency and a reference id. 
Terms: https://www.paypal.com/legalhub/home — Privacy: https://www.paypal.com/legalhub/privacy-full
WooCommerce (optional, local) — if you enable WooCommerce checkout and WooCommerce is installed, Robina creates a pending WooCommerce order and hands payment off to WooCommerce. Robina makes no external call itself; any outbound requests are made by WooCommerce and its own gateways under their policies.
Map link — a location’s address is turned into a plain “view on map” link to Google Maps (https://www.google.com/maps/search/…). It is only a link: nothing is transmitted and no map is loaded unless a visitor clicks it.
<h3>Source code</h3>
Robina is fully open source (GPLv2+). The front-end widget is compiled with Vite from the Vue source that ships inside the plugin under <code>/resources</code>. The build files (<code>package.json</code>, <code>package-lock.json</code>, <code>vite.config.js</code>) are bundled too, so the compiled assets in <code>/assets/dist</code> can be regenerated from source with:
<pre><code>npm install && npm run build
</code></pre>
Bundled third-party libraries (installed via npm, both MIT-licensed):
<ul>
<li>Vue 3 (^3.4) — https://github.com/vuejs/core</li>
<li>intl-tel-input (^29.0) — https://github.com/jackocnr/intl-tel-input</li>
</ul>

<h4>Vik Booking for WordPress</h4>
The famous Booking Engine and PMS online software for accommodations is now available also for WordPress as a native Plugin!
If you are looking for a reliable reservation system for a Hotel, B&B, Villa, Apartments, Hostel or any similar accommodation, then you have found the right plugin. In fact, Vik Booking is a PCI-DSS and OpenTravel compliant hotel & vacation rental Booking Engine used by thousands of properties every day.
This is the free version of the plugin, but you can upgrade to the Pro version at any time from your wp-admin section. Experience the power of a true and internal Booking Engine that competes with the best ones of the world!
The Pro version is compatible with Vik Channel Manager, the first and only native Channel Manager for WordPress, listed as a Premier Partner of Booking.com since 2018 among the top 20 systems worldwide. Full API connections available with the most famous OTAs such as Airbnb, Expedia and Google Hotel for their new Free Booking Links! Beware of “fake” Channel Manager plugins that only offer unreliable iCal synchronizations with no private access to the OTA’s APIs.
