Booking Nest

Booking Nest is a native Orderain plugin that lets you sell appointments, classes, and rentals directly from your store. Simply mark any product as a "Service" type and customers can book available time slots through your existing cart and checkout.

Whether you run a salon, clinic, coaching business, or rental service, Booking Nest gives you everything you need to manage providers, availability, and bookings — all from your Orderain dashboard with no separate booking platform required.

Key Features:

• Turn any product into a bookable service by setting its type to "Service"
• Add providers (staff, rooms, or resources) and assign them to services
• Set working hours, buffer time, capacity, and advance booking windows per service
• Block holidays and unavailable dates to prevent bookings
• Customers see only available time slots in real time
• Manage all bookings from the Booking Nest dashboard — confirm, reschedule, or mark as complete
• Works alongside physical products in the same cart and checkout

Follow these steps to set up Booking Nest on your Orderain store.

Step 1: Go to your Orderain Dashboard, navigate to Shop, then select Plugins from the left sidebar and click on Booking Nest, then click Install to activate it. Once installed, it will appear under Installed Plugins in your sidebar.

Step 2: Go to Products → All Products and open an existing product or create a new one. Under Product type, select Service (bookable) and save.

Step 3: In the sidebar, click Booking Nest. Go to the Providers tab and click + Add provider to add the staff members, rooms, or resources that deliver your services.

Step 4: Go to the Services tab — your bookable products appear here automatically. Click Configure on any service to set its duration, buffer time between bookings, capacity per slot, advance booking window, minimum notice, working hours, and blocked dates.

Step 5: Your store is ready. Customers can now select an available time slot and book directly from the product page. All incoming bookings appear in the Bookings tab, where you can view, confirm, or manage each appointment.
