Calendra connects to Google Calendar, Zoom and online payments, and offers a booking widget you can add to an existing website without writing code.
Calendra connects to Google Calendar for two-way sync, to Zoom for automatically generated video meeting links and to Stripe for online payments and deposits. Integrations require a connected account, suitable permissions and the enabled feature; check availability for your plan. Add the booking widget to your existing website.
Integrations solve two kinds of problem: duplicated work across tools, and gaps in the booking flow.
A stylist or consultant keeps personal commitments in Google Calendar and business appointments in Calendra. Once connected, Calendra appointments appear in Google Calendar, and Google Calendar commitments can block availability, so the personal and business schedules stop colliding.
For services delivered over video, Calendra creates the Zoom link when the appointment is confirmed and includes it in the confirmation and the reminders. Nobody creates meetings by hand or sends links separately.
Instead of redirecting to another domain, you add the booking widget to your existing site. The client completes the whole booking on your page, which reduces drop-off mid-process.
Connecting an online payment provider lets a deposit or full payment be a condition for confirming the appointment, which is the most direct measure against last-minute cancellations.
An appointment created in Calendra appears in the employee's Google Calendar. There is no retyping and no risk that one of the calendars is out of date.
The video meeting link is created when the appointment is confirmed and included in every notification, so nobody hunts for a link before the meeting.
The widget means the client never leaves your website. Fewer steps and fewer redirects mean more completed bookings.
A calendar plus a video tool plus a payment link works, but every step has to be triggered by hand.
| What we compare | Separate tools | Calendra with integrations |
|---|---|---|
| Appointment in a personal calendar | The employee enters it again, or forgets to. | Google Calendar synchronisation happens automatically. |
| Video meeting link | Created by hand and sent in a separate message. | The Zoom link is created on confirmation and included everywhere. |
| Booking on your website | A redirect to another domain, or a contact form. | The widget allows the whole booking on your own page. |
| Prepayment | A payment link sent manually, unconnected to the appointment. | Payment is a built-in step in the booking flow. |
| An employee's personal commitments | Invisible to the business calendar. | Can block availability through Google Calendar. |
| Maintenance | More tools, more accounts, more places to break. | One setup an administrator enables once. |
An administrator enables the integration in settings.
The employee or business connects their account through the provider's official sign-in.
On each service you decide where the integration applies, such as online meetings or prepayment.
Calendra uses the connected data in the booking flow, the calendar and notifications.
Once an account is connected, Calendra appointments appear in the employee's Google Calendar and Google Calendar commitments can be taken into account when calculating availability. Each employee connects their own account, so calendar access stays under their control.
When a service has the online meeting option enabled, the Zoom link is created as the appointment is confirmed and included in the confirmation and reminders. Rescheduling keeps the link, and cancelling removes the meeting. The full flow is documented on the Zoom integration page.
