Let customers book up to five services in one booking flow with Picktime’s group booking software. They can schedule services back-to-back for a single visit or choose different dates and times, with the flexibility to select a team member for each service.
Picktime’s group booking software makes managing group bookings easier for both customers and businesses. Customers can choose their preferred team members, find available time slots, and review all their selected services in one Booking Summary. Each service appears as a separate appointment on your Picktime Calendar, keeping staff schedules organized.
Customers can choose multiple services from your Booking Page and add them to a single booking selection. Each selected service appears in the Booking Summary with its price and a running total. All selected services must be available at the same location.
1 locationAll selected services must be available at the same location.
Customers can choose how they want to schedule their services. With the “Book Together” option, appointments are arranged back-to-back for one visit. With the “Pick Separately” option, they can choose different available times or dates for each service. Picktime’s group scheduling software also prevents customers from selecting overlapping times for their own services.
BlockedOverlapping times for their own services.
Not every service needs the same team member. Based on your Booking Page settings, customers can either choose a team member for each service or use No Preference so Picktime assigns an available team member. This makes it easier to schedule appointments that involve different staff members, such as a haircut with one stylist and a facial with another.
No PreferencePicktime assigns an available team member.
Before completing their booking, customers can review their selected services, appointment dates, times, and total cost in one Booking Summary. When online payments are configured, they can proceed to a single payment screen for the combined amount. On the business side, Picktime’s group booking system records each service as a separate appointment in the Online Calendar, so your team can manage each one individually.
Customers see one booking process, while Picktime’s group scheduling keeps track of each service, its scheduled time, and the assigned team member. Here’s how the details are handled from start to finish.
Turn on Enable Multiple Bookings under Online Booking > Settings > Booking Restrictions. Once enabled, your Booking Page lets customers select multiple services before continuing to the scheduling step. You can turn the feature on or off based on how your business accepts appointments.
All services selected in a multiple booking must be offered at the same location. If customers try to add a service from another location, Picktime asks them to book it separately. Customers can also choose available service variations, such as different treatment durations, before scheduling.
Picktime’s group booking software holds selected appointment slots for 10 minutes while customers complete their booking. When customers use Pick Separately, times that overlap an appointment they’ve already selected are unavailable. If they change the team member for a service, they need to select an available time again.
Each service in a multiple booking appears as its own appointment, with its own time and team member, and is tagged with an ‘M’ on the calendar so your team can see it’s part of a multi-service booking.
A customer wants to book a haircut, beard trim, and facial during the same salon visit. Without Multiple Bookings enabled, they have to book each service separately. That means returning to the Booking Page, selecting another service, choosing a team member, and finding an available date and time for every appointment.
Scheduling becomes more complicated when services have different durations or require different team members. Customers need to find available time slots that fit together without overlapping. For business owners, this can lead to more phone calls, scheduling questions, and extra time spent coordinating appointments.
Picktime’s multiple bookings feature makes the process easier. Customers can select up to five services at the same location in a single booking flow. They can schedule services back-to-back for one visit or choose a different date and time for each service. They can also select a team member for each appointment based on availability.
Instead of repeating the booking process, customers can review their selected services, appointment times, and total cost in one booking summary. This makes it easier for customers to schedule multiple services while helping businesses reduce manual coordination and manage appointments more efficiently.

From salon appointments to wellness treatments, customers often need more than one service. Picktime’s group scheduling app helps businesses handle these requests by letting customers schedule services around their preferred times, team members, and visits.
A customer wants a haircut, beard trim, and hair treatment. With Book Together, they can schedule all three services back-to-back, choosing a different team member for each service when needed. Picktime displays each appointment on the calendar under its assigned team member.

A customer needs a pet bath and nail trimming but prefers separate appointments. With Pick Separately, they can choose different dates and times for each service. Picktime prevents their selected appointment times from overlapping and keeps each service visible on the business Calendar.

Group booking software lets businesses schedule several services for one customer or accept reservations for sessions with multiple attendees. With Picktime, Multiple Bookings organizes eligible services or resources in one booking flow, while Class Bookings manages seats in classes and workshops with set capacities. This gives service providers two distinct ways to handle group bookings.
Picktime’s Multiple Bookings lets customers select two to five services or resources in one booking flow. Each selection creates an individual booking, while the customer completes the process in one go. Multiple Bookings is available on Starter and Pro. For the latest plan features and limits, see Picktime pricing.
Yes. Picktime offers two options: Book Together schedules services one after another, while Pick Separately lets customers choose different dates and times. Separate bookings must fall within a 31-day span, and the combined duration cannot exceed 12 hours. This gives customers flexibility when arranging multiple appointments.
Yes. Picktime lets customers select a different team member for each service in a Multiple Booking. You can make staff selection required or leave it optional. When customers choose No Preference, Picktime automatically assigns an available team member based on the service and availability.
Picktime sends one confirmation containing all the selected services. Each service remains an individual booking in your scheduling system, so your team can manage appointments separately. Customers can also use their booking link to manage the bookings in their group without starting the entire booking process again.
Yes. When online payment is required, Picktime processes a Multiple Booking as one transaction. Customers can book several services and complete a single payment rather than checking out separately for every appointment. This keeps the booking process straightforward for businesses offering services such as haircuts, beauty treatments, or consultations.
Picktime uses Class Bookings to manage shared sessions with a set number of participants. Fitness studios, training centers, and workshop organizers can define each session’s capacity and accept online reservations through their Booking Page. Once the available places are filled, the class stops accepting additional confirmed bookings.
Multiple Bookings lets one customer schedule several services or resources in a single booking flow. Class Bookings lets multiple customers reserve places in the same group session. Picktime manages these as separate booking types, so classes and packages cannot be included in a Multiple Booking.
Go to Online Booking, open Settings, and find Enable Multiple Bookings under Booking Restrictions. Turn it on and save your changes. Customers can then select eligible services or resources and choose Book Together or Pick Separately to schedule their appointments in one booking flow.
No. Picktime’s Multiple Bookings lets a single customer schedule up to five services in one booking flow, but it does not support assigning different attendees to individual services. Customers can choose different services, team members, and appointment times within the same booking.
Yes. Picktime lets you create a class-specific booking link so customers can directly reserve a spot without browsing your full Booking Page. Go to Booking Types, select Classes, open the class, turn on Booking Link in Class Details, and click Save. You can then copy and paste the link to your website, emails, or messages.
