How Calendovo works
Build your booking page in seven simple steps. Choose a step below, or use Next. This guide does not change your account.
Create your account
Start with the person who will manage the business.
- Click Create your business calendar and enter your business name, booking address and email.
- Choose a password of at least 12 characters.
- Open the verification email, verify your address, then sign in. Check spam if the message is missing.
Set your business details
Use the time zone where your business actually works.
- Enter your business name and a short description.
- Check the suggested time zone and choose your language. Daylight-saving changes follow the selected time zone.
- Click Save and next. Back lets you return to earlier steps; save changes before leaving a step.
Choose one calendar or a team
Each calendar can accept one appointment at a time.
- Working alone? Choose Skip employees — use one business calendar.
- Have a team? Add each employee by name to create a separate calendar for that person.
- Use Save and add another for more people. Separate employee login invitations can be added later from Employee login.
Add services and optional photos
Tell customers what they can book and how long it takes.
- Enter a service name, such as Haircut or Nail design, and its duration in minutes.
- Optionally enter a price and upload a JPG, PNG or WebP photo up to 5 MB. The photo is public on your booking page.
- Select the employees who offer this service, then save. Use Save and add another to create more services.
Add working hours
Customers can only book inside the availability you set.
- Choose a calendar, working days, start time and end time.
- Save hours for each calendar. Later, use Working hours to add breaks, date-specific hours or days off.
- Check that the service fits inside those hours. Buffer time and connected-calendar busy periods can also reduce available slots.
Test and share your page
Try the complete booking flow before sharing your link widely.
- Finish setup and open your booking page from the dashboard. Choose a service, employee and available time.
- Enter a test name and your email, review the dates and reserve. Open the email and confirm the appointment. Cancel the test afterwards.
- Share your booking link or QR code with customers. Review your business contact information and booking terms first.
Manage your appointments
Return to the dashboard to keep your calendar up to date.
- View appointments or add a phone booking using New booking. Customers can cancel or reschedule using their email link.
- Edit services to change prices or replace/remove photos. Change availability through each employee’s Working hours.
- Calendar connections can import Google/Outlook busy times. A private calendar subscription displays Calendovo appointments in compatible apps.
More questions
Calendar sync explained
Google and Outlook connections read busy periods from the primary calendar to block conflicting times. They do not write appointments to those calendars. Use a private calendar subscription to display Calendovo appointments in compatible calendar apps; refresh timing is controlled by the receiving app.
Who can use it?
A salon can give each stylist a calendar and create services such as haircuts. A car-cleaning business can organise bookings by employee and service duration. A solo professional can use one business calendar. These are examples, not customer testimonials.
Is it free?
Calendovo is free. No card is required. Prices entered for services belong to the business; Calendovo does not collect customer payments. SMS is not included.
What should I check before sharing?
Check the time zone, services, employee assignments and available hours. Try your public booking page and confirm a test appointment by email. Make sure your business contact details and booking terms are correct.
