Getting started with Nabooki

Getting started with Nabooki

An overview of the self-onboarding journey and everything you need before you begin.
 What is this guide for?

This guide walks you through setting up your Nabooki account from scratch and getting your first real bookings live. Each article has step that links to a dedicated article with detailed instructions.

  • Your services listed out — names, durations, and prices

  • Your payment gateway details (Stripe or PayPal account)

  • Access to your website (for embedding or linking your booking tools)

  • Any staff or resources you want to manage through Nabooki
