To allow customers to make online bookings, you'll need to implement Xola Book Now button code on your website. You can find this code you need by navigating to Settings > Button Code, and following the steps below. Please note that installing the Javascript only needs to be done once per website - From then on you can simply paste in new button HTML code as needed.

  1. Paste this code into your website's universal header or footer. It should be the last piece of code in your <head> </head> tag.
    • Note: Once you install the Javascript you do not need to ever repeat this step!
  2. CSS: 
    • Choose Your Checkout Type: 
      • Pop up Checkout: Iframe allows people to stay on your site but pop-ups a separate check out window. Select whether you'd like to use Xola's green Default Book Now button or if you'd like to designate your own Custom CSS button class.
      • Embedded Checkout: Embeds the checkout on your website, no extra windows. Click here for more information.
      • URL Checkout: Utilizes a URL to trigger a pop-up Checkout window.

Note: URL checkout will not track Google Analytics for your account if you do not install the Xola Javascript.
