Set up Wix Bookings for several locations or client sites

By Kayabyte

Two situations lead to the same problem: a business with a Wix site per location, and an agency that builds booking sites for many clients. Each new site needs the same services, staff, categories and policies, and Wix has no way to share a Bookings setup between sites (Wix feature request).

One site or several?

Wix Bookings can offer services at several business locations from one site (Wix guide). If the locations share a brand and a booking page, one site with several locations avoids the copying problem. Separate sites make sense when each location has its own brand, domain, language or owner, and for agencies, where each client has their own site.

A repeatable setup for many sites

  1. Build one reference site: categories, booking policies, staff, services with prices and images, class and course sessions, working hours.
  2. For each new site, install Wix Bookings and the copy app, then copy from the reference site. The new site gets the same categories, policies, services and staff, and staff keep their custom working hours.
  3. Then do what must differ per site: staff names and emails, business hours (or copy them with the option), prices if the currency is different, locations, the connection to payments, and any pricing plans.

Copy Bookings to Another Site does step 2: details and plans. It matches by name and email, so staff and services that already exist on the new site are left as they are.

FAQ

Can the copy keep the clients’ sites in sync later? No. It is a copy, not a sync. Run it again to add what is new on the reference site; it skips what exists and does not change items that are already there.

Is it only for agencies? No. Anyone who rebuilds a site or opens a second one can use it. The free plan copies up to 3 services per site.
