Custom data in client’s profile (Customer Information Add-on)

All custom fields can be rearranged just as you need by dragging the sandwich icon. These fields will appear on the Details step of the booking process, just below the personal info fields.

If you select the custom field to be a Required field, your clients won't be able to complete the booking before they answer your questions.

The 'Ask once' setting allows you to display custom questions once. If the field was filled in, then it won't be displayed to your clients during the next booking session. It works for authorized in WordPress users.

4. All info the client inputs in custom fields will be stored in Customers section in Bookly.
