If you have a Facebook page for your business, you want people to be able to book an appointment without leaving Facebook. Adding a "Book Now" button to your page takes a couple of minutes and sends people straight to your BookingTimes booking page.
Before you start
You need to be an admin of the Facebook page, and you need the link to your booking page. That's your website address followed by /Bookings, for example https://yourbusiness.com/Bookings. Just add "/Bookings" on the end. The rest of the details are added automatically so the page opens on today's availability.
Adding the button
- Open your Facebook business page, not your personal profile.
- Below your cover photo, click + Add a Button. If your page already has a button, click the three dots next to it and choose Edit action button instead.
- Choose Book Now from the list of button options, then click Next.
- Choose the option to link to a website, and paste in your booking page link.
- Save, then open your page and click the button to check it goes where you expect.
A few things worth knowing
- A Facebook page can only have one action button at a time. If you already have "Send Message" or "Learn More", adding Book Now replaces it.
- If Book Now doesn't appear as an option, check your page role. You need admin access, not editor.
- If your Instagram account is connected to the page, you may need to add the button there separately.
- Facebook moves these settings around from time to time. If the steps above don't match what you see, look for "action button" or "Add a Button" near your cover photo.
Once it's live, anyone who finds your page can book with you in a couple of taps, instead of looking for your phone number and calling during business hours.
