Customer payment details (card number, expiration, CVC) are transmitted directly to Stripe’s servers and never stored on the WordPress site. Appointment name, email address, and amount are also sent to Stripe. This connection is only made when a customer completes a booking with payment enabled. – Service: https://stripe.com – Privacy Policy: https://stripe.com/privacy – Terms of Service: https://stripe.com/legal ### Privacy Policy Serenity Booking does not collect or transmit any data to external servers owned by the plugin author. When the site owner enables Stripe payments, customer name, email address, and payment card details are transmitted to Stripe, Inc. for payment processing. This data is governed by the Stripe Privacy Policy (https://stripe.com/privacy). The site owner is responsible for disclosing this to their customers. All booking data (appointments, customers, staff records) is stored exclusively in the site’s own WordPress database. ## Installation 1. Upload the `serenity-booking` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/` 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** menu in WordPress 3. Go to **Settings Permalinks** and click Save Changes 4. Access the booking wizard at `yourdomain.com/appointment` 5. Access the business dashboard at `yourdomain.com/serenity-booking-dashboard` ## FAQ ### Does this require Stripe? No. Stripe is optional. Toggle it on/off under Serenity Booking Settings Stripe. When disabled the payment step is removed from the wizard entirely. ### Where is the booking page? The booking wizard is available at `yourdomain.com/appointment` — no page creation needed. ### Where is the business dashboard? The business dashboard is at `yourdomain.com/serenity-booking-dashboard`. Log in with any WordPress admin or staff account. ### Can I manage multiple locations? Yes. Add unlimited locations under Serenity Booking Locations, each with its own address, business hours, and holiday schedule. ### Will this slow down my site? No. Assets load only on the booking page and dashboard route. Stats are cached via WordPress transients. Nothing loads site-wide. ### Can my staff use the dashboard without full admin access? Yes. Serenity Booking registers a `serb_staff` role with permission-scoped REST access — staff can view and update appointments but cannot access financials or settings. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Serenity Booking” is open source software.
