Add-ons (also referred to in the admin as Additional Services) are optional extras clients can add to their sessionâthings like highlight reels, trailers, podcast branding, or makeup.
Unlike upgrades (which are tied directly to base services), add-ons are flexible, standalone enhancements that appear in the final step of the booking flow. Theyâre a great way to:
Offer creative extras without overwhelming clients up front
Increase booking value through non-intrusive upsells
Tailor sessions to client needs on a case-by-case basis

đ§ Where to find it:
Admin Panel â Additional Services
đ How to create or edit an Add-On:
When adding a new add-on, youâll configure:
Name â This is shown in the client-facing interface (e.g. â3 Signature Highlightsâ)
Description â Short, punchy copy to explain what the add-on is and why itâs valuable
Price per unit
Minimum quantity (optional) â Set this for items like highlight clips or reels where it only makes sense to sell in batches
Unit pricing type
Per session â Flat price added once, no matter how long the session is
Per hour â Multiplies based on session duration (e.g. 2-hour booking = 2x price)
Custom label â You can write something like âPer edited clipâ or âPer remote guestâ to make pricing crystal clear
đď¸ Visibility Settings
Add-ons can be either:
Status | Use Case |
Visible | Shown in the booking flow to all users |
Invisible | Hidden from public view, but available when creating admin bookings |
Invisible add-ons are perfect for scenarios where you want something ready in the CMS (for bundles or custom client work), but donât want clients selecting it directly.
đ§Š How Add-Ons Appear in the Booking Flow
Add-ons show up in Step 4 of the clientâs booking journeyâafter theyâve selected their setup and base service.
They are presented in a visual card-style layout, each showing:
Name
Description
Price (with multiplier if applicable)
Quantity selector (if allowed)
Clients can add as many as they want before moving to payment.
đ§ Add-ons appear dynamically based on the Setup theyâre tied to. If you donât link an add-on to a setup, it wonât show upâeven if itâs marked as visible.
â When to Use Add-Ons
Add-ons are great for:
Services that vary from session to session (e.g. makeup, parking, jingle)
Extras that donât make sense baked into base services
Premium content like highlight reels, trailers, or audience clips
Optional gear (e.g. teleprompter, multi-cam)
They help studios generate more revenue without overloading the core booking experience.
đ§ Add-Ons vs. Upgrades
Letâs make the distinction super clear:
Feature | Add-Ons (Additional Services) | Upgrades (Attached to Base Service) |
When it shows | Step 4 of booking flow | Pop Up immediately after base service is selected |
How itâs configured | Standalone in Admin Panel | Attached inside each Base Service editor |
Visibility options | Can be made visible or invisible | Always visible if attached |
Flexibility | Can apply across many setups | Specific to one base service |
â ď¸ Quick Tips
Minimum quantity is perfect for editing-related services. Donât offer "1 clip" if you know itâs not worth your time.
If an add-on isnât showing up, check:
Is it linked to the correct Setup?
Is it set to visible?
Use custom unit labels to clarify complex servicesâthis can reduce support questions and increase confidence in checkout.
â Summary:
Add-ons help you tailor the experience, increase session value, and keep your offerings flexible. Whether youâre offering creative services, on-site upgrades, or just making sessions easier for clients, add-ons give you full control over how your studio adds value without complicating your base services.
Build your add-on library thoughtfullyâand revisit it often as you learn what clients love most.
