LatePoint – The Lightweight Appointment Booking Plugin for WordPress
★★★★★
LatePoint is an appointment scheduling and booking plugin for WordPress that lets your clients schedule, reschedule, and pay for appointments without a single back-and-forth email.
It’s the WordPress booking plugin built for coaches, salons, consultants, clinics, and event hosts who rely on appointments and group bookings.
Now with Events. Alongside appointments, LatePoint lets you publish and sell tickets for workshops, classes, and group events, right from the same booking flow your clients already use. Add an events list, or drop a registration button, anywhere with a shortcode, set capacity, and let attendees register and pay in a few clicks. With LatePoint Pro, offer multiple ticket types per event (like General or VIP) at different prices, and every ticket comes with a QR code for fast check-in at the door. Every registration becomes an order, so you manage your event booking system the same way you manage appointment bookings.
Used on 100,000+ WordPress sites, LatePoint gives service businesses a fully branded booking experience that works 24/7. Your clients book from any device. You get paid upfront. No-shows drop. Admin time disappears.
Whether you’re a coach, salon, consultant, or clinic, if your business runs on bookings, LatePoint makes it easy to manage your schedule, take payments, and let clients book online 24/7.
Set it up in 10 minutes. Look professional. Automate the boring stuff. Let LatePoint handle the heavy lifting so you can focus on your business.

Accept payments at the time of booking
LatePoint lets you collect payment the moment a client books, no due invoices, no chasing, no unpaid appointments. Connect Stripe, PayPal or Razorpay in about 10 minutes and start accepting payments on the free plan.
Choose how you get paid:
Full payment at booking: Client pays the complete service fee upfront
Deposit at booking: collect a fixed amount or percentage to hold the slot, balance due later
Pay later: Send a payment link after the appointment via the invoicing feature
Payments are processed directly by your payment gateway. LatePoint never holds your funds.
Card data is handled entirely by Stripe or your chosen processor. PCI-DSS compliant by default.
Accept payments with Razorpay | Accept payments with Stripe
Why accept payments at the time of booking?
Accepting a deposit is the single most effective way to reduce no-shows. When a client has paid to hold their slot, they show up. LatePoint makes it a one-step process at checkout.
Supported payment gateways (free plugin): Stripe, PayPal and Razorpay
