Amitry Booking is a self-hosted appointment scheduling plugin for WordPress, built around personalized booking links. Instead of sending everyone to the same generic booking page, you give each client their own link that opens a clean, step-by-step booking calendar: they pick a service, choose a time, and confirm. Every booking and every detail stays in your own WordPress database.<\/p>\n\n
It works as a privacy-friendly, self-hosted alternative to cloud schedulers like Calendly, without sending your clients or their data to a third-party service.<\/p>\n\n
https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=LeCsW_vO8TY<\/p>\n\n
Each personalized booking link is a unique, unguessable URL you can use two ways. Send it privately to one client, where it greets them by name and can show a personal note. Or turn it into a QR code for flyers, business cards, posters, and shop windows: the link is reusable, so the same QR code can be scanned and booked by many people.<\/p>\n\n
For each link you decide exactly what it shows: every service, only certain categories, or a hand-picked set of services. You can also give a link an expiry date.<\/p>\n\n
The booking calendar detects the visitor's time zone and shows every available slot in their own local time, with a time-zone switcher built in. A client in another country books in their own time, just like Calendly, while your appointments stay consistent in your business time zone.<\/p>\n\n
Amitry Booking treats your availability as one shared calendar. A slot booked through any link immediately disappears from every other link, and a race-safe check at booking time prevents two people from grabbing the same slot at once.<\/p>\n\n
There are no external services and no third-party APIs. Every service, link, and booking is stored in dedicated tables in your own database, which makes Amitry Booking a good fit for GDPR and any site that wants to own its data.<\/p>\n\n
The booking wizard renders on its own isolated page that does not load your theme's styles or scripts, so the booking calendar looks the way you designed it on every site, and stays fully responsive on phones, tablets, and desktops.<\/p>\n\n\n
Yes. It is a self-hosted, privacy-friendly alternative to cloud schedulers like Calendly. The booking calendar runs on your own site, and all appointment data stays in your WordPress database instead of on an external service.<\/p><\/dd>\n
Yes. The scheduling wizard detects the visitor's time zone automatically and shows every available slot in their local time. Visitors can also switch the time zone by hand. Your bookings are stored consistently, so your own calendar always reflects your business time zone.<\/p><\/dd>\n
Yes. Every personalized booking link has a built-in QR code you can download as PNG or SVG and print on flyers, business cards, posters, or show on a screen. Because a link is reusable, the same QR code works for many people.<\/p><\/dd>\n
Yes. Each booking link can be scoped to all services, specific categories, or a hand-picked set of services, so every recipient sees only what is relevant to them. You can also set an expiry date per link.<\/p><\/dd>\n
No. Availability is treated as one shared calendar, so a slot booked through any link disappears from all of them, and a race-safe check at booking time stops two people from taking the same slot at the same moment.<\/p><\/dd>\n
In dedicated tables in your own WordPress database. Nothing is sent to external services, which keeps the plugin friendly to GDPR and privacy-conscious sites.<\/p><\/dd>\n
Yes. Confirmation emails include secure self-service reschedule and cancel links. When a customer reschedules, the new appointment is created first and the old one is only released once the new booking is confirmed.<\/p><\/dd>\n
No. The wizard renders in an isolated pipeline that does not load theme stylesheets or scripts, so the booking calendar stays consistent everywhere.<\/p><\/dd>\n
Yes. All text uses standard WordPress translation functions, and the plugin ships with English and German. Other languages can be added through translate.wordpress.org.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
