Online Scheduling

Online scheduling is one of the most effective ways to generate more leads and provide better service to your customers. Potential and existing clients can use Vcita online scheduling to schedule a consultation, appointment, or service. Clients can book appointments instantly, on any device, with any staff member, based on your current availability. Vcita will also save you time on client coordination, reminders, follow-ups, reschedules, and even billing and payments—all from a single cloud-based client management solution.

We collaborated with vcita to provide online scheduling for your website. This feature requires a separate vcita account, which you can create within the editor.

Some features require a premium vcita subscription; however, customers who sign up through the Online Scheduling widget receive a trial version of the account. Please visit vcita's pricing page for more information.

If you need help with the vcita product or your vcita account, please visit their education centre or contact them directly.

To include the widget:

1. Click Widgets in the left panel.
2. Drag the Online Scheduling widget into your website.
