New Picktime Features
Our features will serve you both a functional and a promotional purpose, as they are tailored to reflect your brand’s credibility and values. Let’s dive in:
Custom Button
Everyone loves convenience, and your customers will too. Picktime now allows you to add a new custom button action that appears right after a booking gets confirmed. With this custom button feature, you can link it to any URL you want, whether it’s your social media, website, or About page, so clients can learn more about your brand. No coding is needed; just paste the link and you’re all set. It’s a great way to reinforce your branding and give customers a quick preview of what to expect before their appointment.
Auto-Redirect Clients in Seconds
Picktime offers auto-redirect links to an external website or a specific URL just after a meeting is scheduled. Create new opportunities to earn credibility by showing your website or previous work on your Facebook page. This is perfect if you want to redirect your customers to a thank-you page or any other site that includes the next steps or service prep instructions.
Service & Team Specific Links
Booking popular services and your credible team members is now even easier! With Picktime, you can share direct links of specific team members or services and see how easily your calendar fills up.
For instance, whether you're promoting a particular service or recommending a team member, instead of making it complex, you can simply send them a link or specific QR codes. Your audience will be able to see the availability of particular team members or services. Both you and your customer save time, so they won’t have to second-guess or jump through unnecessary steps.
Announcement Bar
We’re excited to launch our value-added feature, the announcement bar. It will give your business an extra edge to communicate with every booking page visitor. Showcase special promos and discounts, run limited-time deals, or newly added services, right on your appointment booking page. They will appreciate clarity since the announcement bar will guide users towards high-value services.
Share Your Booking Page Instantly
Digital advertising opens up endless opportunities for your business. If you are stepping into marketing your brand online, our latest feature is here to help. You and your customers can directly share your Picktime profile from the booking page on LinkedIn, Facebook, WhatsApp, and even Reddit. After a booking, you can encourage customers to share their bookings with friends or on social media. This means a faster and easier way to promote your booking page and get more leads.

Ready to try them out? Features like team-service-specific links, auto-redirect, and a custom button make it easier to guide customers to the right page after booking. Furthermore, Picktime’s online appointment scheduling app supports these features from any device, including desktop, mobile, and tablet, which adds quick actions that fit your workflow.
