Wix Bookings: Creating and Managing Shareable Links

Create shareable links to your bookings pages, memberships, and packages, to make it easy for clients to book your services. You can customize the links to show different services or even showcase the services specific staff members offer.

Shareable links are a great way to get bookings, even if you haven't finished creating your website. We'll make a functional mini-site for you so that you don't miss any bookings while you're adding the finishing touches to your site. Getting the word out about your services is a crucial part of growing your business.

Important:

  • Make sure to upgrade your site to accept online payments for your services.

  • We are in the process of releasing shareable links, which are not yet available to everyone.

FAQs

Click a question below to learn more.

I haven't finished my website yet, can I still share links to my services?

When you use shareable links with a new Wix site, Wix creates a "mini site" in the background for your existing services, so your clients can still book sessions with you.

Once you publish your finished site, you can then create new shareable links to direct your users to the relevant page on your completed website.

Notes:

If I don't have a Premium plan yet, can I still share links to my services?

Yes, you can still share links to your services without a Premium plan, but you won't be able to accept online payments.
