Flexible booking types
Run attendance bookings, timed sessions, appointments, registrations, demonstrations, collection slots and other reservation workflows.
Book Your Slot
Bookings without forcing your business into somebody else's workflow.
Book Your Slot is a flexible WordPress booking, registration and reservation plugin for businesses and organisations that need a clean way to manage people, places, times, optional items and on-site check-in.
Free core in active development. Advanced Pro capabilities are being built on the shared Bad Otter entitlement platform.
Free core
A useful booking system before you pay for anything.
The free core is designed to handle real bookings rather than acting as a demo that becomes unusable without an upgrade.
Capacity that makes sense
Control people capacity separately from optional reservable items or extras, including session-level availability where required.
QR check-in
Give customers a QR code or booking reference and validate arrivals from a mobile-friendly staff scanner.
Restricted staff access
Create named scanner-only staff accounts without handing out WordPress administrator access.
Customer history
Recognise returning customers, search bookings and keep operational history together.
Consent and exports
Record booking and marketing consent separately and export operational data when needed.
Staff check-in
Give the scanner to staff, not your WordPress dashboard.
Book Your Slot can create restricted staff accounts that sign in through a front-end check-in portal. Staff can validate a booking, check people in and mark reserved items as collected without normal WordPress administration access.
Actions remain attributable to the named staff member in the operational audit trail.
Day-to-day flow
Scan → Validate → Check in → Collect
The customer can show a QR code or booking reference. The scanner distinguishes invalid, cancelled, wrong-event and already-processed bookings so staff have a clear answer at the point of arrival.
Pro direction
Pay for automation, scale and complexity — not basic maintenance.
Book Your Slot is being structured as a Free / Pro product. Pro pricing is not being advertised until checkout, entitlement lifecycle and downgrade behaviour are finished end-to-end.
Advanced reminders and follow-up automation
Premium marketing and CRM connectors
Reusable templates, recurring availability and richer scheduling
Multiple optional items, custom booking questions and advanced rules
Reporting, analytics, waitlists and operational automation
Enhanced staff permissions, integrations and webhooks
