Matching results open right in the booking widget. ## Installation 1. In your WordPress admin panel, go to **Plugins Add New Plugin**, search for ** BookiFlex**, and click **Install Now**, then **Activate**. 2. An **onboarding wizard** launches automatically — walk through the basic setup ( company info, rental units, pricing, and booking terms) or load demo data to explore the plugin before configuring anything. 3. You’ll be asked whether you’d like to share anonymous usage data to help improve the plugin — choose what feels right for you. 4. Enter your license key, or click **”Free version”** to activate the plugin at no cost. 5. After activation, the **Book Now** button is visible to administrators only. Once you’re ready, enable it for all visitors in **BookiFlex Settings**. That’s it — guests can now book directly from your website. ## FAQ ### Do I need to create a separate booking page? No. BookiFlex works out of the box. The booking button is automatically added to your website and opens a modal widget where guests can complete their booking — no separate pages or shortcodes required. ### Can I manage multiple apartments or rental units? Yes. You can create multiple rental units (apartments, cabins, glamping units or guesthouse rooms), each with its own availability calendar and pricing. Each unit is booked as a whole. The plugin is not designed for shared rooms, beds or hostel-style accommodation. ### Is this a booking system or just a contact form? This is a real booking system. Guests select dates, see availability and confirm their reservation directly on your website. ### Can I accept online payments? Yes. You can configure offline payments, bank transfers and online payments with optional prepayment settings. Additional payment options may be available in the Pro version. ### Can I customize the booking button and widget design? Yes. You can customize the booking button text and color directly from the plugin settings. If you need more control, the default styles can be further customized using CSS to match your website design. ### What happens if two guests try to book the same dates? The plugin includes built-in overbooking protection. Once a booking is confirmed, availability is automatically updated. ### Does the free version have limitations? The free version is fully functional and allows you to accept real bookings without artificial limits on apartments, rates or reservations. The Pro version adds advanced availability rules, synchronization and pricing logic for growing rental businesses. ### Is BookiFlex a good WordPress hotel booking plugin for guesthouses, B&Bs and small hotels? Yes. If each room or unit is booked as a whole, BookiFlex is a great fit for guesthouses, bed and breakfasts (B&Bs) and family-run small hotels. It handles small hotel bookings just like a single apartment — each room is its own bookable unit. It’s not built for large hotels that need room-level inventory pooling, a channel manager or a full PMS with housekeeping and advanced reporting. ### Not sure if this plugin fits your use case? If you’re unsure whether BookiFlex is the right solution for your property, open a topic in the support forum and describe your setup. We’ll help you evaluate if the plugin fits your needs. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/833a86b506b23dd983adc2ab8189def389c86b9af6c512d7421b79f92ddd12c4? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Growth and development to you](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/growth-and-development-to-you/)󠁿 [waldekapart](https://profiles.wordpress.org/waldekapart/) Meurth 24, 2026 1 reply Thanks to the guys for the plugin and quick response, I installed it on a live website, and everything worked fine on my computer, but on my phone, no button was visible. I emailed them about the issue, and it turns out I simply forgot to enable the button for users! Documentation is still missing, but they promised it would be soon. I hope they’ll add a Polish language version, too.
