All three lists are on this page, because you deserve to find that out now rather than after you have signed up.<\/p>\n<p>Most integration pages are a wall of logos. A logo tells you nothing \u2014 a tool can be &#8220;integrated&#8221; because there is a deep native connection, or because someone once made a Zap, or because a marketing team put the logo on a grid. Those are wildly different things and only one of them will still be working in six months.<\/p>\n<p>So here are Bookafy&#8217;s integrations sorted by what they actually are.<\/p>\n<h2>Native \u2014 built into Bookafy, no third party involved<\/h2>\n<p>These do not touch Zapier. You connect the account in Bookafy, and it works.<\/p>\n<table>\n<tr>\n<th>Area<\/th>\n<th>What Bookafy does natively<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Calendars<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><span class=\"n\">Two-way sync<\/span> with Google, Outlook, Exchange and iCloud. Two-way means your existing commitments block your booking page, not just that bookings appear on your calendar.

A unique link per booking, in the confirmation email and the text reminder.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Payments<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><span class=\"n\">Stripe<\/span> and <span class=\"n\">Authorize.net<\/span>. Take payment or a deposit at the time of booking, on your own merchant account. See <a href=\"https:\/\/bookafy.com\/stripe\/\">Stripe<\/a>.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Text reminders<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><span class=\"n\">Included<\/span>, not metered as an add-on. This matters more than any integration on this page: text reminders are the most effective thing anyone has found for cutting no-shows.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>API &amp; webhooks<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>An open API and webhooks, so you can react to bookings in real time instead of polling. See <a href=\"https:\/\/bookafy.com\/custom_api_public\/\">Custom API<\/a>.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Single sign-on<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/bookafy.com\/single-sign-on-sso\/\">SSO<\/a> for organisations that need staff logging in through their identity provider.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<h2>Through Zapier or Make \u2014 and the one limitation you must know first<\/h2>\n<p>Everything else runs through Zapier or Make. That is not a dodge; it is how a scheduling tool sensibly connects to three thousand apps it will never build against directly. But you should understand the exact shape of it before you design a workflow on top of it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bookafy&#8217;s Zapier triggers:<\/strong> New Appointment, New Customer, New Appointment Type, New User.<br \/>\n<strong>Bookafy&#8217;s Zapier actions:<\/strong> Create Appointment, Create Customer.<br \/>\n<strong>Timing:<\/strong> on Zapier&#8217;s free plan, triggers are polled roughly every 15 minutes. Nothing is instant.<\/p>\n<p><strong class=\"x\">There is no cancellation or reschedule trigger in Zapier.<\/strong> Read that twice, because it is the thing that quietly breaks people&#8217;s automations. A Zap that fires on New Appointment will cheerfully create the CRM deal, the follow-up task and the invoice \u2014 and it will never find out that the client cancelled forty minutes later. If cancellations matter to your workflow, and for anything touching money they do, build on Bookafy&#8217;s webhooks or API instead of Zapier. Every integration page below says this, because it is true on every one of them.<\/p>\n<table>\n<tr>\n<th>Category<\/th>\n<th>Pages<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>CRM<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/bookafy.com\/salesforce\/\">Salesforce<\/a> (a Zapier <em>Premium<\/em> app \u2014 you need a paid Zapier plan) \u00b7 <a href=\"https:\/\/bookafy.com\/hubspot\/\">HubSpot<\/a> (not premium) \u00b7 <a href=\"https:\/\/bookafy.com\/pipedrive\/\">Pipedrive<\/a> \u00b7 <a href=\"https:\/\/bookafy.com\/zoho-crm\/\">Zoho<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Email marketing<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/bookafy.com\/mailchimp\/\">Mailchimp<\/a> \u00b7 <a href=\"https:\/\/bookafy.com\/activecampaign\/\">ActiveCampaign<\/a> \u00b7 <a href=\"https:\/\/bookafy.com\/salesforce-marketing-cloud\/\">Salesforce Marketing Cloud<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Accounting<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/bookafy.com\/quickbooks-online\/\">QuickBooks Online<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Project &amp; task tools<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/bookafy.com\/trello\/\">Trello<\/a> \u00b7 <a href=\"https:\/\/bookafy.com\/asana\/\">Asana<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Support &amp; messaging<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/bookafy.com\/intercom\/\">Intercom<\/a> \u00b7 <a href=\"https:\/\/bookafy.com\/twilio\/\">Twilio<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Ecommerce<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/bookafy.com\/shopify\/\">Shopify<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<h2>Things Bookafy does not do<\/h2>\n<p>No other scheduling vendor will print this list.

Google Calendar is a native two-way sync \u2014 no Zapier involved. The same is true of Outlook, Exchange and iCloud.<\/p>\n<h3>Do I need to pay for Zapier to use Bookafy?<\/h3>\n<p>Not for calendars, video meetings, payments or text reminders \u2014 those are native. You only need Zapier to push booking data into other apps, and Zapier&#8217;s free plan covers simple cases. Salesforce is the notable exception: it is a Zapier Premium app, so it requires a paid Zapier plan.<\/p>\n<h3>Why is there no cancellation trigger?<\/h3>\n<p>Bookafy&#8217;s Zapier integration exposes creation triggers only. It is a real limitation and we would rather you knew now. Bookafy&#8217;s webhooks and API do let you react to the full lifecycle of a booking, including cancellations.<\/p>\n<h3>Which video tools does Bookafy generate links for?<\/h3>\n<p>Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Webex and GoToMeeting. A unique meeting link per appointment, delivered in the confirmation email and the SMS reminder.<\/p>\n<h3>Are text message reminders an extra charge?<\/h3>\n<p>No. They are included. Several competitors meter SMS separately even on paid team plans, so it is worth checking that line on any quote you compare us against.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I build my own integration?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes.
