React Widgets: Streamlined Store & Event Booking 📆

COMING SOON! 👀

Get ready to impress your clients with sleek new Store and Event Booking widgets for your website!

The Store widget offers a modern shopping experience, perfect for businesses like yoga studios or gyms selling class sessions, apparel, or equipment. Clients can browse, add items to their cart, and check out with ease.

The Event Booking widget simplifies registration for workshops, events, or classes, making it ideal for businesses like dance studios or wellness centers. For example, a client signing up for a weekend retreat can now select their session and confirm their spot in just a few clicks.

Prepaid Appointment Add-ons: Track & use products with ease! 🛍️

It’s here! You can now encourage your clients pre-purchase service add-ons, like Botox units or instrument rentals, in bulk and use them over time! These add-ons are automatically stored in their profile, making them easy to access for future appointments.

Mark Koepsell, owner of Xanadu Med Spa in Fort Collins, CO played a huge role in shaping the functionality of this feature. Mark’s clients often purchase Botox in bulk, and he wanted a way to track these prepaid add-ons without extra manual work. Thanks to his input, we’ve launched our Prepaid Service Add-ons feature that stores and automatically deducts units during appointments, updating inventory in real-time.

Allow Clients to Preview & Download Attachments with Ease 📂

Now your clients can preview and download important documents right from their profile Attachments page—no extra steps, emails, or external links needed! 🔍

With this update, staff can easily upload treatment plans, aftercare instructions, consent forms, and other essential documents directly to a client’s profile. For example, a practitioner can upload a PDF titled "Botox Aftercare Instructions" for the client to review. When the client logs into the Client Portal, they can preview the document and download it to their phone for easy access after their appointment. 📱

Access to documents is faster and easier for your staff and clients and you have full control over which attachments are visible to clients, ensuring privacy when necessary. 🔒

Enterprise Updates

Enterprise Fee Management: Franchise Royalties Simplified 💼

Now, you can manage franchise fees and royalties in WellnessLiving! The new HQ Fee Management feature gives you complete control over setting and managing fees across your franchise locations.

New Enterprise Traveler’s Mode: Seamless Client Management Across Locations ✈️

For health and beauty businesses where clients frequently visit multiple locations, our revamped Traveler’s Mode for Enterprise customers gives your staff access to a shared client database across locations! They can now update and manage client information no matter which location a client visits.

With Traveler’s Mode, staff can view a client’s entire account, including services booked, products purchased, treatment history, and more, no matter where they visit.

For example, a client who receives Botox at one location and a facial treatment at another can have their profile viewed at any location, allowing staff to see their treatment history, preferences, and remaining banked Botox units. Practitioners at any location can update the client’s progress, add treatment notes, and share recommendations.

Traveler’s Mode really helps to provide a great client experience whether clients visit one location or all of them. For more on how to enable Traveler’s Mode, check out Traveler's Mode and Travelers Mode FAQ.
