What are Session Categories?
Session Categories allow you to take control of your booking form and customise your sessions and events into different categories. This is incredible helpful for businesses that have a lot of different sessions, but still want to keep the online booking process simple and quick for customers. Using session categories can take a lot the of stress and manual work out of having to constantly update your website with new links and images, while still giving you powerful branding and visual options.
Why are Session Categories useful?
They are entirely customisable, so you can change all the text, all the images, and set what appears where.
They keep your main form clean, so regular bookable sessions aren't lost amongst different events
Multiple similar events like SEN sessions or Christmas Parties, can be booked together
You can even set categories to link out to an external page, for example, a menu, or an FAQ.
Each session can still have it's own introduction message on the following page, allowing you to display more vital information to customers but only showing them things applicable to them.
