## Overview

Slotara is a self-hosted, multi-tenant appointment booking system. One installation gives every business you sign up its own booking page, staff schedules, calendar and online payments, and you charge each one a monthly subscription.

Clients book in five steps from any phone: a service, a provider, a free time, their details, and a confirmation email with a calendar invite.

## What's included

- One install runs booking for many businesses
- Booking page, staff hours and calendar for each business
- Stripe, Razorpay, PayPal, Paystack and Paddle at booking
- Drag-and-drop booking form with 10 field types
- Google Calendar sync and email reminders
- Subscription plans for the businesses you sign up

## Features

- **Booking on any phone**: Clients pick a service, a provider and a free time, and get a confirmation email with a calendar invite.
- **A form for every service**: Each business builds its own booking form: ten field types, show-or-hide rules, a different form per service.
- **Paid at booking, or at the venue**: Stripe, Razorpay, PayPal, Paystack and Paddle, chosen per business.
- **You run the platform**: Plans with booking and staff limits, every business in one list, impersonation and an audit log.
