Free booking link generator

Paste your booking page address and get back a clean link you can put in a bio, a signature or on a poster, optionally tagged so you can tell later which one people used. Nothing is shortened, nothing is tracked, no account.

This link generator needs JavaScript to run. Everything below it reads perfectly well without it, from how it works through to what it will not do and the questions people ask.

No booking page to link to yet?
A free Picktime plan gives you one, with your services and your hours on it.

Nothing leaves this browser. Nothing is saved to us and no link is shortened, redirected or tracked by this page: it tidies the address, you paste it.

How it works

Paste your address, say where it is going, copy the result

01

Paste the address people use today

Whatever your booking page is. Leave off the https:// and it is added; leave a space in and it is taken out; a trailing slash is trimmed so you never end up with two of them. If what you typed is not a web address yet, it says so rather than handing you a broken link.

02

Tag it, if you want to know where people came from

Choosing where you are posting it adds utm_source, which is a long-standing convention rather than anything this page does. It means something only if your analytics reads it, and it is what lets you tell the Instagram link from the one on the poster later.

03

Copy it as a link or as a button

Copy the link gives you the plain address for a bio or a message. Copy as a Book now button gives you the HTML for a website or an email signature. The character count is there because a link on a printed card has to be short enough for somebody to type.

Honestly

It tidies the address. It cannot put anything at the end of it.

What is above tidies an address and adds one optional tag. It fixes the things that break a link when it is typed out or read off a poster, like a missing https, a trailing slash or a stray space, and it checks the result is a real address before it will let you copy it. Nothing is saved here, because there is nothing worth keeping between visits.

It also cannot do the four things that happen once somebody clicks. It cannot make the page they land on, so a tidy link to nothing is still a link to nothing. It cannot let them pick a time and have it booked. It cannot put that choosing inside your own site instead. And it will not tell you how many followed it. Only whatever reads the tag can do that.

If you want the next four things

Picktime is what goes at the other end of it. It gives you a booking page at an address like the one you just tidied, people pick a time on it and are booked without anybody being asked, and afterwards you can see what actually came in. It is a free plan rather than a free trial, so the link has somewhere to point today.

Questions

Booking links: common questions

Is the booking link generator really free?

Yes, and there is nothing to sign up for. No account, no email address, no trial that runs out and no limit on how many links you build. It is free because it is useful on its own, and because a link is worth having only if there is a booking page at the end of it.

Can I make the link open on a particular service or person?

Not from here, and we would rather say so than guess. That depends entirely on what your booking page supports, and a parameter invented by this tool would either be ignored or send somebody somewhere you did not intend, while this page told you it worked. Check what your own booking system documents.

Does it shorten or track the link?

Neither, deliberately. A shortener would put somebody else’s server between you and your customers, and this page has no server of its own to track anything with. What you get is a plain address on your own domain that will still work in five years.

What does the tag actually do?

It adds utm_source, a widely used convention rather than a promise. It means something only if your analytics reads it. Nothing here collects it, and a page that ignores it is not broken by it. That is the point of the convention.

Will the link work if I have not got a booking page?

No. This writes an address; it does not create anything at the other end. If nothing is there, the link goes nowhere, which is why the tool says so instead of handing you something that looks finished. A free Picktime plan gives you the page the link is supposed to point at.

The link written. Now give it somewhere to go.
