10 best WordPress booking plugins

There are numerous website booking plugins available for your business, but some are better than others. Of course, it depends on your specific needs. For that reason, we’ve compiled a list of top tier booking plugins for WordPress, along with what makes each one stand out.

Here are 10 of the best WordPress booking plugins to consider for your website!

1. Booking and Appointment Plugin for WooCommerce

Price: $119+

 

 

Does your website feature an online store? If so, the Booking and Appointment Plugin for WooCommerce might be the ideal plugin for you.

WooCommerce is a WordPress plugin that helps you set up and run ecommerce sites. If you use WooCommerce for your site, the accompanying Booking and Appointment Plugin is a fantastic additional tool.

When you integrate it with WooCommerce, you can coordinate equipment rentals based on your online store’s inventory. 

2. Booked

Price: $49

 

 

Booked is another website booking plugin, and its value is in its flexibility. While some plugins restrict you in many ways, Booked provides a variety of options.

For starters, you can set the plugin to several different languages. You can also choose from different types of bookings — paid, guest, and registered — and use either a calendar or a list view for your time slots.

3. Booking Calendar

Price: Free, or $60+ for an upgraded version

 

 

The WooCommerce booking plugin is an excellent tool for integrating with WooCommerce, but what if you want to integrate with a different platform? In that case, you might want to consider Booking Calendar.

Booking Calendar offers integration options with various websites and external calendars, including Google Calendar and TripAdvisor. That means you can keep using whatever booking platforms you’re already using and keep everything connected.

4. Sugar Calendar

Price: $49+

 

 

Many of the plugins on this list boast an extensive list of features on their respective websites. And if you’re looking for a plugin that can do everything, many features will be ideal. But what if you’re new to all this and want something basic?

That’s where Sugar Calendar comes in. Sugar Calendar still has all the necessary features of a booking plugin, including the ability to create schedules and collect payments. However, it’s lightweight and simple to use.

5. Bookly

Price: Free, or $89 for an upgraded version

 

 

Some businesses schedule appointments with different members of their staff. If that describes your business, you’ll want a way to assign appointments to your separate staff members — and Bookly is a great way to do that.

Bookly provides access by multiple people and lets you assign appointments to specific individuals. It even notifies your staff members whenever they’re assigned an appointment.

6. StartBooking

Price: $12–$28 monthly

 

 

If your business is trying to set up appointments for servicing, such as car repair, StartBooking is an optimal platform to look into. It presents a clean and easily navigable interface to users where they can set up appointments.

StartBooking lets you create set lists of specific services you offer so that users can choose from them when they set up their appointments. It also has programming to keep you from scheduling overlapping appointments by mistake.

7. MotoPress Hotel Booking

Price: $89

 

 

MotoPress Hotel Booking is distinct from the previous entries on this list because it’s industry-specific. It exists specifically for booking stays at hotels or rental properties.

This plugin uses real-time availability calendars to show how many rooms are currently available, making sure you don’t overbook. It also allows you to list any amenities or special accommodations that come with your rooms.

8. Bookingo

Price: $40+

 

 

It may be that your business doesn’t schedule appointments for service, reservations, or purchases, but instead for classes. Maybe the classes are what you’re selling, or maybe they’re part of a marketing campaign you’re offering to users.

Whatever the case, if class scheduling describes you, Bookingo is the perfect tool for your business. It’s built to schedule training or classes.

Unlike other types of appointments, classes are usually scheduled by you in advance, with users then signing up for them afterward. Bookingo accommodates that structure, letting you list all the information about your scheduled classes for users to see.

9. Team Booking

Price: $29

 

 

Different businesses have different priorities. Maybe you want a plugin that has tons of features, or maybe you want one that’s simple. But if your priority is affordability, Team Booking is a great plugin to try.

Team Booking provides the same basic function as other booking plugins, but for a considerably lower price. Of course, you may have noticed that a couple of the plugins on this list have a free version.

However, the free versions lack many of the features that make those plugins good to start with, so if you’re not going to pay for the premium version, it’s best to switch to a different plugin. As such, Team Booking is the cheapest paid option on this list, coming in at a low $28.

10. Simply Schedule Appointments

Price: Free, or $99+ for an upgraded version

 

 

The final entry on this list is Simply Schedule Appointments (SSA). SSA’s greatest strength is that it lets you schedule multiple types of bookings all in one plugin.

Maybe you offer a particular type of appointment-based service, but you also want to schedule marketing videoconferences. You could set up two separate forms, each with a different format, for those bookings.
