How can I add buffer time to a service?
To add buffer time to your services, you can add the duration of buffer time along with the actual service duration and then hide the service duration that appears in the client booking interface. Here’s how you can do it:
If a service takes 30 minutes and the buffer time is 15 minutes then consider adding the service duration as 45 minutes.
You can include the actual service duration along with the service name. For instance, if the service name is ‘Hair Color’, write it as ‘Hair Color - 30 minutes’ which will appear in the client’s booking interface.
After this, go to ‘Settings’ and click on ‘Service Options’ under ‘Customer Booking Flow’ and disable ‘View service time on booking interface’. Once you do this, the service duration will not be displayed on the client booking interface.
