Multi-day service

A Multi-day Service lets customers book a date range (start date → end date). This is perfect for rentals or events that last multiple days.


✅ What this service type does

With Multi-day booking, customers:

  • choose a start date

  • choose an end date

  • book the whole date range

  • (optional) pay online depending on payment settings

You control:

  • booking rules (min/max days, if available)

  • capacity (how many bookings can happen at the same time)

  • paid vs free booking

  • availability and location


🎯 When should I use Multi-day Service?

Use Multi-day booking when:

  • customers need to reserve multiple consecutive days

  • it’s not tied to specific time slots

Examples

  • Equipment rental (3 days)

  • Workshop ticket (2 days)

  • Hotel-like rental for a product/service

  • Multi-day event passes

🌐 How it works on your storefront

After publishing:

  1. A Book button appears on the service product page

  2. Customer selects start date + end date

  3. If paid → customer goes to checkout

  4. Booking appears in Appointments

  1. The app automatically calculates the total booking price based on:

  • Service price (price per day)

  • Number of booked days

  • Number of customers in an appointment

Formula

Final price = Service price × Number of booked days × Number of customers


🧪 Example

Service: Camera rental (Multi-day)

  • Customer selects: Dec 16- Dec18

  • That reserves 3 days

  • Capacity: 1 (so no overlapping rental ranges)

  • Service price: $100/day ⇒ the total price = $300


⚙️ Set the charge rule

For multi-day services, you can choose how customers are charged based on the length of their booking.

Under How customers will be charged, select the pricing rule that best fits your service.

You can choose from:

Per participant, per day

Each participant is charged for every day of the booking.

Example

Service price: $100

Booking: Dec 16 – Dec 18 Participants: 1

The booking covers 3 days:

$100 × 3 days = $300

This option works well for services such as:

  • Equipment rental

  • Daily workspace rental

  • Multi-day activities


Per participant, per night

Each participant is charged for every night between check-in and check-out.

Example

Service price: $100

Check-in: Dec 16 Check-out: Dec 18 Participants: 1

The booking includes 2 nights:

$100 × 2 nights = $200

This option is useful for services such as:

  • Accommodation

  • Overnight rentals

  • Retreats

  • Camping or lodging services


Per participant

Each participant is charged only once, regardless of how many days the booking lasts.

Example

Service price: $100

Booking: Dec 16 – Dec 18 Participants: 1

Total:

$100 × 1 participant = $100

The booking duration does not increase the service price.

This option works well for:

  • Multi-day event passes

  • Retreat registration fees

  • Courses with one fixed price
