Add Class / Event Booking to Your Website

You can enable clients to book classes or events online through the booking widget, as well as the iOS and Android consumer apps. This guide walks you through configuring online booking for class sessions.

Things to know:

• The ability to add class or event bookings to your website is controlled by the "Accessing Website Tools" access control setting.
• To enable online booking for classes, the following steps must be followed:
  • A payment account must be set up to process card payments. If you do not have a payment account, please email processing@mytime.com for help.
  • Your account must be live.
  • Online booking must be enabled. Learn more here 
  • The "Schedule Classes / Events" company setting must be enabled
  • Create your class categories and classes under the Class tab.
• If you select only one staff member, that staff member will be preselected by default on the widget.
• If you select only one class category, it will be preselected by default on the widget and will only show sessions within that category that fall within the selected date range.
• The Staff Member filter is optional but can be used to filter classes shown in the widget.

Once configured, your class bookings can be embedded on your website as a button or an entire page without a pop-up.

2. Paste the iframe code into your website’s HTML. You can add it to a dedicated booking page or within an existing page

Display Notes:

On Desktop: The widget will display in a wide format.

On Tablet/Mobile: The widget automatically adjusts to fit narrower screen sizes.

If you update the widget settings later (e.g., add Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or Custom CSS), a new URL may be generated. In that case, you’ll need to re-embed the updated code.

Congratulations! Clients can now book your classes and events directly from your website.
