Sometimes a client contacts you outside your booking page – for example via WhatsApp or a phone call. You can then easily add that client yourself in Bookura. This way everything is neatly in your system, including contact details.

Adding a manual client is useful when:

  • A new client calls or messages for an appointment
  • You want to create a regular client in advance before they book via the booking page
  • You work without a booking page and add all clients manually

After creating a client you can immediately create an appointment, or do this later via the appointments overview.

Form fields when adding

  • First name
    Enter the first name here. This is the only required field.
  • Last name
    Not required, but useful for overview.
  • Email address
    Optional. Fill this in if you want to use email reminders or confirmations.
  • Phone number
    Optional. Always useful if you want to call the client or send messages.

Click the + New client button on your clients page to start.
