Über dieses Produkt

In-Store Appointment & Service Booking turns Shopify POS into a real booking terminal for service-led retailers. Your front desk can schedule a haircut, a consultation, a class seat or a treatment, collect a deposit or full prepayment to confirm it, and then ring up that service together with shampoo, supplements or merchandise in one POS cart and one checkout.

This is not an instant App Store download. ECOSIRE designs, builds, installs and configures the app directly on your store as an embedded Shopify app, using the Admin GraphQL API, OAuth for authentication, webhooks for order and fulfillment events, and metafields to store booking data (service duration, assigned staff/resource, location, appointment time) against orders, customers and product variants. Services are modeled as Shopify products/variants so they flow natively through POS, taxes, discounts and reporting.

What you get: a service catalog with duration and resource/staff assignment, a calendar that two-way syncs to Google, Outlook and iCal, deposit-or-prepay rules to cut no-shows, automated SMS and email reminders, and multi-location awareness so each branch sees its own schedule and inventory. Retail products sold in the same visit decrement multi-location inventory correctly.

Because it is built to order, we adapt the booking rules, buffer times, cancellation policy, reminder copy and deposit logic to how your business actually runs — then hand it over installed and tested. You own a tailored tool, not a rented one-size-fits-all widget. Typical delivery is 2–4 weeks depending on scope, with documentation, a walkthrough and ongoing support included.

Salon & barbershop owner

Wants the front desk to book a cut or color, take a deposit to stop no-shows, and sell retail haircare in the same POS sale without juggling a separate booking tool.

Clinic or wellness practice manager

Needs appointment scheduling tied to specific practitioners and rooms, prepayment to secure slots, and reminders that reduce missed visits across multiple locations.

Studio or class-led retailer

Runs classes or sessions with limited seats and also sells products; needs capacity-aware booking, deposits, and one checkout for the class seat plus merchandise.

Häufig gestellte Fragen zu In-Store Appointment & Service Booking

Is this an instant download from the Shopify App Store?

No. This is a build-to-order app. ECOSIRE designs, builds, installs and configures it directly on your store as an embedded Shopify app. There is no public App Store listing to click-install — we tailor the booking rules, deposits, reminders and calendar logic to how your business actually runs, then hand it over installed and tested.

How long does delivery take after I purchase?

Typical delivery is 2 to 4 weeks depending on scope — the number of services, locations, staff/resources, and any custom rules. After purchase we run a short scoping call, confirm your services and policies, build and install the app, connect your calendars and reminders, then do a walkthrough with your team before go-live.

What support and updates are included after launch?

Every build includes a post-launch support window covering bug fixes and configuration adjustments (reminder copy, deposit amounts, buffer times, new staff or locations). Because the app runs on the Shopify Admin GraphQL API and webhooks, we also keep it working as Shopify evolves its APIs. Extended support or new features can be arranged after the included window.

How does checking out a service and a product together actually work?

Services are modeled as Shopify products/variants, so a booking adds a line item to the same POS cart as your retail products. Your front desk rings up the appointment and the shampoo (or supplements, or merch) in one transaction, one payment and one receipt. Retail items decrement multi-location inventory correctly, and the booking details are stored on the order via metafields.

Will it work across multiple store locations?

Yes. The app is multi-location aware — each branch sees its own calendar, its own staff or resources, and its own multi-location inventory for any retail sold alongside the service. Deposits, reminders and cancellation policies can be configured per location if your branches operate differently.

Can customers book online, or is this in-store only?

The core is the in-store POS booking and checkout flow. We can also enable customer-facing confirmation and reschedule links tied to the original order, and an optional online booking surface can be scoped as an add-on. We confirm exactly which booking surfaces you need during scoping so the build matches your workflow.
