To make booking faster and easier, Bookme now supports Guest Checkout.
Guest Checkout allows bookers to schedule a service without creating an account upfront, reducing friction and increasing successful bookings for service providers.
What Is Guest Checkout?
Guest Checkout lets your clients book a service by providing only:
First name
Last name
Email address
That’s it.
No username, password, or email verification is required to complete the booking.
This update was introduced in response to feedback from both service providers and bookers who wanted a faster, simpler booking experience.
How Guest Checkout Works
For Most Services
The booker selects a service and available time.
The booker enters their first name, last name, and email address.
The booking is confirmed.
After the booking is completed, the booker will be prompted to finish creating an account, but this step is optional.
When Account Creation Is Required
If the booked service is an online service that uses Bookme’s built-in video chat, the booker must complete account creation to access the video call.
This ensures:
Secure access to the video room
Proper identity verification
A smooth and reliable video session for both parties
In this case, the booker will be guided through the account setup process before joining the call.
