Plugins - Coming Soon

We're excited to announce that we're working on a robust plugin system to extend the functionality of the Bookla Platform. This system will allow for easy integration of additional features and third-party services, as well as provide an opportunity for developers to create and share their own plugins.

We're currently developing a range of official plugins to enhance the Bookla Platform. Some of the planned plugins include:

  1. Subscriptions
  • Manage recurring bookings and memberships
  • Handle subscription billing and renewals

  • Issue and redeem digital gift cards
  • Track gift card balances and usage
  1. Intake Forms
  • Create custom forms for client information gathering
  • Automate pre-appointment questionnaires

  • Collect and display customer reviews
  • Implement a rating system for services and resources

  • Sync bookings with popular calendar services (Google Calendar, iCal, etc.)
  • Manage availability across multiple platforms
  1. Payment Gateways

Developer Opportunities​

We believe in the power of community-driven innovation. That's why we're creating a framework that will allow developers to build and integrate their own plugins with the Bookla Platform.

What to Expect​

  • Plugin Development Kit (PDK): A comprehensive set of tools and documentation to help you build, test, and deploy plugins.
  • API Extensions: Ability to extend the Bookla API with custom endpoints and functionality.
  • Integration Capabilities: Hooks and events to seamlessly integrate your plugin with the core Bookla system.
  • Developer Portal: A dedicated space for managing your plugins, accessing analytics, and collaborating with the community.

Use Cases for Custom Plugins​

  • Industry-specific features not covered by official plugins
  • Integration with niche third-party services
  • Custom booking flows and business logic
  • Specialized reporting and analytics tools

We're excited about the possibilities that plugins will bring to the Bookla Platform and can't wait to see what innovative solutions our developer community will create. Stay tuned for more updates, and thank you for your interest in extending the capabilities of Bookla!
