How it works

Live in three steps.

1
Drop it on your site
Activate the plugin on your rental site. It overlays your existing booking platform — no data move, no migration.
2
They plan the event
A friendly gate captures event type, date and time, checking availability before the visitor ever browses.
3
They browse & quote
Branded inventory cards and a streamlined quote form turn qualified visitors into real booking requests.
On every listing

A live availability calendar, right on the item.

Every rental page gets an on-page month calendar beside the item — open dates, booked dates greyed out, and the real price for that day pulled live from your platform. Pick a date and it carries straight into the cart, so it’s never re-entered.

  • On-page calendar on every listing
  • Live availability & date-specific pricing
  • The picked date carries into the cart

Qualify first

Capture the event before they ever browse.

A friendly, on-brand gate asks what they’re planning, when, and for how long — then checks availability against your platform. You get qualified visitors and a captured date instead of anonymous browsers.

  • Event type, date & time captured up front
  • Live availability against your booking platform
  • One toggle: require a date, or let them browse
The first step of the BookFlow gate asking what the visitor is planning.
A real calendar

A visual calendar with your lead time and live availability baked in.

Step through a proper month calendar and time picker — past dates and anything inside your minimum lead time are greyed out automatically, and booked dates can be pulled live from your platform.

  • Month calendar with smart date blocking
  • Enforces your minimum lead time
  • Optional live availability per item
The BookFlow gate time step, asking for a start and end time after a date is chosen.
On-brand browsing

Beautiful inventory cards on top of your existing catalog.

BookFlow replaces the stock inventory grid with clean, branded cards — real photos, clear pricing and add-to-cart — while quietly using your booking platform’s same backend, so nothing about your operations changes.

  • Branded cards with photos & pricing
  • Add-to-cart wired to your real backend
  • No migration — it overlays what you already run

You stay in control

Tune every part of the flow from one clean settings panel.

One clean toggle — “Require date before browsing?” — decides whether the pop-up auto-opens or visitors browse freely (“Book Now” always opens it). Set your event types and lead time, choose the calendar and live-availability behaviour, and pick the style — all without touching code.

  • One “Require date before browsing?” toggle
  • Set event types, lead time & default time
  • Choose the gate style & availability source

Questions

Good to know.

What does it sit on?
BookFlow is an overlay for rental sites — it uses your existing booking platform’s backend (built for InflatableOffice) so your operations and data stay exactly where they are.
Will it disrupt my current setup?
No. It overlays your inventory and checkout with a branded flow; add-to-cart proxies into the same cart you already use.
Can I force visitors to pick a date?
Yes. You can allow date-free browsing or make the gate required, and set a minimum lead time so no one books inside your prep window.
Does the calendar show real availability?
The calendar always blocks past and lead-time dates; with your platform API key it can also grey out dates an item is fully booked, live.
Can I match my brand?
Out of the box the gate ships in four styles and the inventory cards inherit your site’s look. Full brand fitting — your colors, logo and theme matching — is an optional one-time $199 setup (a separate add-on), so the plugin looks made-for-you.
How is it billed, and what’s included?
BookFlow is $39/month, cancel anytime. That covers the product as-is: install, standard settings, the date toggle, updates and break-fix support.
What about custom features?
One-off features and custom work are quoted per job — not bundled into the monthly price — so you only pay for what you actually need.
