Overview

Easy Appointment Booking can connect with your Klaviyo account so you can send emails from your brand and domain for follow-ups or the core booking confirmation and reminders. This allows you to create Klaviyo flows whenever customers:

  • Place a booking

  • Booking gets rescheduled

  • Booking gets cancelled

  • 24-hours before a booking

  • When a booking occurs

  • 24-hours after a booking

Additionally, Easy Appointment Booking will also automatically create or update customer profiles on Klaviyo. This keeps your email lists accurate and lets you segment customers. For example, you could segment customers who have placed a booking in the past week, and send them a discount code or upsell them on other products.

It is possible to send multiple reminders using Klaviyo. You can create different email flows to trigger at various times before the appointment, such as 24 hours and one hour beforehand.

Does the Klaviyo integration work with the Free Klaviyo plan?

The Klaviyo integration will send to your free Klaviyo account, however you would need to use Klaviyos plans to send an email as you require. For example 500 emails are free: https://www.klaviyo.com/pricing

Adding Intake Questions Responses to your Klaviyo Email Templates

Any Intake questions that your customers have answered can be added to your Klaviyo email template. To do this, add the following block of code in your email template:


{% for item in event.booking_line_items %}
<p style="text-align: left;">
{{ item.name }}: {{ item.value }}
</p>
{% endfor %}

This tells Klaviyo to loop over all of the intake question responses in the {{ event.booking_line_items }} variable and add them to your email template.


13. Once you select an Email Template and save it, make sure to uncheck the Skip recently emailed profiles checkbox. This will ensure that all triggered emails are sent to the customer.

Once your email template is created, save your flow. You are now ready to send emails through Klaviyo!

Once you have set up your flows through Klaviyo, you can test your Klaviyo integration by creating a new test appointment booking. You can do it a few different ways:

  2. Create a booking from your Shopify store.

Enter a valid email address that is different from the email address you are sending Klaviyo emails from. Once a booking is made, your klaviyo email should arrive in your inbox within 2-3 minutes!
