Service templates (quick start)

Industry quick-start templates create a base service catalogue in one step during setup, and can optionally apply a matching opening-hours and accent-colour template.

Service templates let new providers skip adding services one by one. Pick an industry template and Bokko creates a base catalogue in a single step, with typical durations and a category — you can then freely edit, extend or remove individual services.

When to use them

In the setup Services step (“Add at least one service”) you add your first service by hand and save it with Save service. As a secondary option, Start with a template creates a whole base catalogue. Templates are only available during setup; after setup you add new services on the Services page.

Available templates

Templates appear in two sections inside the picker dialog.

Common service categories: Basic hairdresser bundle, Basic cosmetics bundle, Basic nail-care bundle, Basic massage bundle, Basic barber bundle.

More templates: Basic tattoo bundle (consultation-first), Basic pet grooming bundle, Basic personal trainer bundle, Basic consulting bundle, Basic teaching bundle, Basic repair bundle.

WarningEach template contains 5–7 pre-configured services with durations typical for the industry, and marks two services as featured. A template does not fill in prices: every service is created with On request pricing, and guests see “Price on request”. Add your own prices before you publish, on the Services page.

Applying a template

  1. In the setup Services step, click Start with a template.
  2. In the Pick a vertical template dialog, choose the template that fits your business.
  3. Apply opening hours template and Apply accent color template are switched on by default; turn off the one you do not want. If a template has no such preset (for example the consulting, teaching and repair bundles), the switch is not shown.
  4. Click Start with the … template.
  1. 1. Basic hairdresser bundle
  2. 2. Apply opening hours template
  3. 3. Apply accent color template
TipThe opening-hours and accent-colour templates only take effect if you have not yet confirmed your opening hours and have not yet customised the accent colour. If either is already set, Bokko leaves it untouched.

How the capacity limit works

The number of active services is bounded by your plan limit. Template application is all-or-nothing: if the template's services would not fit within the remaining slots, the application is aborted entirely — no service is created. In that case, either delete some existing services or move up a plan before trying again.

WarningTemplates never create a partial catalogue. If there isn’t enough room, Bokko tells you how many services the template contains and how many fit, and writes nothing — not the opening-hours or colour template either.

Applying a template twice

If you apply the same template again, Bokko says “This template is already applied to your salon.” and creates no new services. Services from the earlier application remain untouched.

After applying

  1. Open the Services page in the dashboard.
  2. Add prices to the services the template created — the template creates them with On request pricing and no price.
  3. Review which services were marked as featured and adjust them to your own.
  4. Delete items you do not offer and add your own where needed.
  5. If you applied the opening-hours template, review it on the Opening hours page (it is saved as confirmed).
  6. If you applied the accent-colour template, review it on the Branding page.
InfoIf templates fail to load (network or transient error), the dialog says so; close it and try again, or add the service by hand.
