Important
All add-ons for Bookly require Bookly PRO installed and activated.
The Service Extras (Add-on) for Bookly allows you to offer extra services, goods, or options to enhance the primary service. Extras purchased by customers may influence the price and duration of the appointment but cannot be delivered independently from the main appointment.
The user experience of the booking will stay the same, as the main focus of the booking process remains on the primary appointment, but a new step (#2) is introduced for selecting additional extras after choosing the service. This step allows customers to opt for extra services before proceeding to select a time slot for the appointment.

Setup and configuration
1. Purchase, download, install and activate Bookly Service Extras (Add-on).
Alternatively, you can activate the Service Extras feature via the Bookly Cloud section.
2. In the Appearance section, select your preferred booking form and ensure that the 'Show Extras step' option is enabled for the Step by step booking form. For modern booking forms, the Extras step is automatically enabled.
3. In the Services section, open each service you want to add extras to. Click Edit > Extras tab. Upload an image for each extra item, specify their prices, minimum and maximum quantity per customer, and duration if necessary.
To make an extra mandatory, set the minimum quantity to at least 1.
4. Determine when the Extras step should appear in your front-end booking form. Navigate to Settings > Service Extras > After Service step or After Time step.
5. Customize the appearance of the Extras step based on your preferences. Go to Appearance > your booking form > 2. Extras tab, and use the checkboxes to select which elements should be visible on this step.
The details about booked extras along with the main service will be displayed in the appointments list and in the appointment edit window #2, which you can access by clicking on the customer’s name.
Additionally, information about the booked extras will be visible in the payment details.
If you're using the Cart (Add-on), you have the option to enable or disable the display of booked extras in the cart. You can find this setting in the Appearance > Step by step form > Cart step > Show extras.
To personalize your notifications and booking form, you can use the {extras} and {extras_total_price} variables.
Your booking form can display information about booked extras only if there are any using the if structure at the Details step. Here's how you can implement it:
You selected to book {service_name} by {staff_name} at {service_time} on {service_date}.
{#if extras} Additional items: {extras} {/if}
The total price of your booking is {total_price}.
Please provide your details in the form below to proceed with the booking.
This structure will ensure that information about booked extras is displayed only when there are extras associated with the booking.

Service Extras with Group Bookings
Your configuration options for Service Extras include additional settings when using the Group Booking (Add-on). In Settings > Service Extras, you'll find an option to multiply extras by the number of persons in group bookings. Enable this setting if you want extras to be multiplied based on the number of persons in the group.
For a demonstration of how the Service Extras (Add-on) functions, you can try both the front-end and backend versions of our free live demo.
