3. Start accepting online bookings via Halaxy
Online bookings allow your patients to book appointments directly into your calendar using Halaxy's free online booking service, available through the Halaxy directory or embedded directly into your own website (check item 4 to learn more).
With the option of time-specific or request-based online bookings, as well as the ability to approve or reject an appointment before it is confirmed, Halaxy gives you complete flexibility to set different preferences for each practitioner at each of your practice locations.
Best of all: after confirmed, online bookings appear automatically in your calendar, without you needing to do anything.
4. Accept bookings directly from your website
You can accept appointment bookings directly from your practice’s website 24/7 using Halaxy’s embedded calendar. All appointments made online via your website are also fully integrated into your Halaxy calendar.

5. Improve your online presence with a superstar profile
Building a strong and reliable online presence takes time and effort. Having a directory profile that promotes your experience, qualifications, and practice details is the first step to make sure patients find you when they need.
Your directory profile is like your business card - in many cases, it's the first impression patients have of you. And the same applies to your practice profile - it's a patient's first interaction with your business.

6. Add a Contact button to your profile
If you're not ready to receive online bookings yet, you also have the option to enable the Contact button. The Contact button is great because it allows patients to instantly contact you via the website - and the email is sent through Halaxy to you automatically without the patient seeing your email address.
You can then manage the booking according to your schedule.

7. Set up online bookings for face-to-face and online consults
Seeing patients in person or via telehealth, and in different locations and time zones can be tricky to manage when receiving online bookings - with Halaxy you don't need to worry:
- Set up a custom email confirmation for online bookings
You can create a customised booking confirmation email for your practice, informing patients about your consultation options, preventive measures for face-to-face appointments, opening hours, etc.
Learn how to customise the online booking email confirmation - Time zones for online bookings
Patients have the option to set their preferred time zone when booking an appointment online with you - your calendar remains the same, but patients can see the available timeslots based on their time zone!
You're able to set a time zone for your practice group, different practice locations, and for individual patients - which is really helpful when scheduling appointments and reminders for patients you see remotely.
