Getting Started

From sign-up to your first live booking in under 10 minutes. Here's exactly what to do.

1. Create your account

Go to whoopa.au/registration and fill in your business details — your name, email, ABN, and a URL slug for your booking form. The slug becomes your booking link (e.g. whoopa.au/my-clinic), so choose something short and easy to share.

After registering, check your email and verify your address before continuing. Unverified accounts can't accept bookings.

2. Complete your business profile

Head to Settings → Business in your dashboard and fill in:

  • Business name — shown on your booking form and in confirmation emails
  • Phone number — displayed on your form so clients can contact you directly
  • Address — used in PDF exports and confirmation emails
  • Website — optional, shown in PDF reports
  • Timezone — critical to get right, all booking times are based on this

3. Add your first service

Go to Services and click Add Service. A service is anything clients can book — a class, appointment, or session. See the Services guide for full details.

4. Share your booking form

Once you have at least one active service, your booking form is live. Find your link in Settings → Integration. You can share it directly or embed it on your website as an iframe.

5. Set up email notifications

Go to Settings → Notifications to choose which events trigger an email to you — new bookings, cancellations, and reschedules. Client confirmation emails are sent automatically for every booking.
