Bookings for WooCommerce is a WordPress plugin developed by Plugin Republic that transforms your WooCommerce store into a powerful booking and rental system. It is designed for businesses that need to sell reservations instead of traditional physical products: property rentals, vacation homes, vehicles, equipment, spaces, classes, or appointment-based services. With this plugin, your customers can select dates, times, or resources directly from your catalog, without manual emails or spreadsheets.
The plugin adds a new "Booking" product type to WooCommerce, allowing you to define exactly how your bookings work. You can configure booking units by day, night, or week, set available quantities, establish start days, minimum and maximum durations, buffer periods between bookings, and booking deadlines. You can also block specific dates on the calendar and apply custom seasonal pricing, allowing you to charge premium rates during high-demand periods or offer discounts during quieter times.
One of its most notable features is iCal synchronization, which lets you import and export booking data with external platforms like Airbnb, Booking.com, or Google Calendar. This ensures your availability is always up to date across all channels, avoiding the risk of double bookings. Additionally, the plugin includes an availability search system on archive pages, so customers can filter products based on their desired dates.
The admin panel includes a visual calendar where you can manage all bookings at a glance, view availability by day and by product, and create manual bookings from the backend. You can also configure automatic email notifications for confirmations, reminders, and cancellations, keeping your customers always informed.
Bookings for WooCommerce is compatible with WooCommerce Product Add-Ons Ultimate, allowing you to offer optional extras like insurance, cleaning, or breakfast during the booking process. It is a flexible, intuitive solution perfect for both users without technical knowledge and developers looking for a solid foundation for booking projects.
