Accept appointments and bookings on your website through one of these three methods:

1. Acuity Scheduling Integration

  • Seamlessly embed a booking system directly on your Squarespace site
  • Allow clients to book appointments and classes
  • Filter and display specific appointment types
  • Access through the Acuity Scheduling block after account setup

2. External Booking Page Links

  • Add booking links through:
    • Button blocks ("Book Now" or "Get Appointment")
    • Navigation menu items
    • Text links within content areas

3. Custom Booking Widgets

  • Available for Business and Commerce plans
  • Embed third-party calendars using code blocks
  • Implementation steps:
    1. Copy embed code from your booking service
    2. Open page/post editor
    3. Add a code block
    4. Paste the embed code

Notes for Custom Widget Implementation:

  • Requires JavaScript or iframe compatibility
  • Functionality not guaranteed across all templates
  • May need adjustments during platform updates
  • Custom code support available through Squarespace Experts

For code-based solutions, ensure compatibility with responsive design and consider consulting documentation or hiring an expert for proper implementation.
