Hello,

I have a question with regards the API feature. I would like to have some minor customization to the way the booking system work (not visual). Does API allow these changes.

The two changes I’m looking at are:

  • First: For certain services I would like the default booking quantity to be two. so when customer click on that service it shows 2 as quantity and he cannot drop it to one. Or with another approach, i want some services to occupy two time slots when they are booked in a quantity of 1 (example: Family package that has two adult, so customer picks the package but this package will cause the system to book two slots at the same time since it is two adult)

  • Second. I would like to have a discount that will be applied automatically based on quantity. For example, if customer book one service he got no discount, however if book two slots, he get 5%, three slots he get 7& and 4 slots he get 10%. this discount will show automatically at checkout.

In case this is doable using the API, do you offer this service at a certain cost, or I have to do it myself though a person who is familiar with your coding.

Thanks & Regards
Tammam

Hi,

one more question. If I do some customization with API, does that limit the possibility to do changes using your general interface. I mean if i start using API, then all changes need to be done through API, or I can still use the standard interface to do changes.

Also do you have a paid service to do customization with API, or i have to find a person who is familiar with that. I have zero knowledge about programming and web page building.

API and our interface fully compatible. But if you will make your own API based booking page with some tricks then this things may not be reflected in our default booking page.

We are thinking about this option, but do not offer it yet. You will need to find some developer
