The delay that builds up
Two sixty-minute sessions back to back, and the third starts late. By the fourth, you cut short.

Massage and wellness
Between two sessions, time to breathe.
Linen to change, a room to air, a client to see out: sutempo blocks that time after each session without showing it, lets the client choose the length, and caps your sessions for the day.
- Blocked time after the sessionNever offered online, saved on the appointment.
- Length chosen by the clientPrice calculated pro rata.
- Daily capBeyond it, no more online slots that day.

Online bookings that day4 of 4
The client sees 60 minutes; the diary blocks 75. The cap only applies to online booking.
What goes wrong in the treatment room
An hour of massage never takes an hour.
A cluttered page
Sixty, seventy-five, ninety minutes: three identical services for three lengths.
Hands have a limit
Past a certain number of sessions, quality drops. A page open all day does not know that.
A typical afternoon
One Thursday, four sessions.
One practitioner, one room, one service with a variable length. The time between sessions is never sold.
The cap only applies to online booking: from the diary, you can still add a session.
- 15:00Fifteen minutes blocked after each session. The page offers 15:15, not 15:00.
- 15:15Ninety minutes chosen by the client between 60 and 90; the price follows the length.
- 17:00Session paid with a credit from a card bought online.
- 18:15Fourth booking: the daily cap is reached and the page closes for this Thursday.
The settings that matter
The time between sessions, and the rest.
The session itself takes two fields. Wellness is mostly about what surrounds it: the minutes after, the length, the fatigue, the prepaid.
Blocked time, not an inflated length
The service lasts 60 minutes and you add 15 minutes blocked after. Blocked time goes from 5 to 60 minutes and is saved on each appointment: changing it later does not shift sessions already booked.
Catalogue › service › BookingOne service, several lengths
A minimum, a maximum and a step. The client chooses, the price is calculated pro rata of the base length, and your page keeps one line instead of three.
Catalogue › service › Price and durationA cap on sessions per day
From 1 to 20 appointments booked online per day. Add a minimum notice so you never discover a 2 pm session at 1 pm, and a horizon so your diary is not open a year ahead.
Settings › Online bookingSession cards and prepaid vouchers
A card of five massages is sold as a session pack, a voucher of a given value as a value pack. A cancellation within your deadline gives the credit back; a no-show uses it.

Questions
What people in the trade ask us.
Does the client see the 15 blocked minutes?+
No. They see the length of the session. Blocked time only exists in your diary and in how available slots are calculated.
Does the daily cap stop me adding a session myself?+
No. It only applies to online booking. From the diary, you book whatever you want.
How is the price of a chosen length calculated?+
Pro rata of the base length and price. A 60-minute massage at €70 becomes €105 when the client chooses 90 minutes.
I work in two places: what do I need?+
Solo covers one location. A second location, with its own hours and services, needs Pro, billed per location.
Can a card bought online pay for any session?+
Only the services you declared eligible for that pack, and within its validity if you set one.
Is it really free for a practitioner working alone?+
Yes. Solo covers one person in one location, with the public page, online payment and emails, no limit on appointments and no card required.
