Yatoon Salon Booking & Appointments for WordPress

Customer-facing AI Chat when WordPress AI Client and a provider are connected and Chat is enabled by an administrator

Third-party integrations are optional and require their own accounts, credentials, supported regions, and provider terms. Local mode continues to work inside WordPress when an external provider is unavailable.

What customers experience

A mobile booking flow for services, variations, add-ons, professionals, date, time, customer details, and confirmation

Several services or guests in one booking journey, with separate staff choices and reference photos where enabled

Clear service durations, prices, appointment summaries, directions, and calendar actions

Secure self-service for viewing, rescheduling, cancelling, rebooking, and eligible service changes

A branded service menu, discovery storefront, portfolio, favorites, quick rebooking, and lightweight installable customer app

What your team manages

Services, categories, images, variations, add-ons, pricing, staff qualifications, and schedules

Business hours, staff schedules, breaks, time off, closed dates, and availability rules

Appointment calendar, client records, notes, reports, notifications, and waitlist

Mobile-friendly rescheduling, temporary break controls, shared-resource checks, and role-specific staff workspaces

Before a booking or sensitive change is saved, Yatoon rechecks staff qualification, schedules, breaks, closed dates, existing appointments, shared resources, and relevant external availability. If a time is taken during checkout, the customer keeps their details and gets a clear recovery path.

Add it to any WordPress page Use the native block, Elementor widget, or one of these shortcodes:

[yatoon_booking] – complete booking form

[yatoon_service_menu] – visual service menu with Book buttons

[yatoon_customer_portal] – customer self-service portal

[yatoon_staff_portal] – mobile staff schedule portal

[yatoon_discovery] – discovery storefront and booking entry points

External Services and Privacy Google Maps – www.google.com/maps. The confirmation page displays a lazy-loaded map when a business address is configured. The preview sends the public business address and normal browser connection information to Google; it does not include customer names, email, appointment details, or manage tokens. Clicking the map opens Google Maps directions to that address. See Google Privacy and Google Terms.

Free Local mode performs booking and availability inside WordPress and does not require Square, Vagaro, Stripe, PayPal, Twilio, Google Calendar, Microsoft Outlook, or Meta WhatsApp.

Every external service Yatoon can contact is listed below with what is sent, when it is sent, and the provider’s own policies. Nothing in this list is contacted unless the corresponding feature is switched on by an administrator.

Fonts. Yatoon does not download fonts from any remote host, and does not bundle font files either. Choosing a font family under Brand & Colors only adds that family name to the CSS font stack; otherwise the system font is used.

Yatoon push relay (Cloudflare Worker) – https://yatoon-api.yatoon.workers.dev. Optional and disabled by default. When explicitly enabled, Yatoon sends a signed, pseudonymous browser push subscription endpoint and a generic event type to this Cloudflare Worker. Customer names, contact details, services, appointment times, and notes are never sent. See Yatoon and the Cloudflare Privacy Policy.

Freemius – https://api.freemius.com. Used for optional account connection, licensing, plugin updates, and upgrade screens. It is contacted only when an administrator opts in or uses one of those features. See Freemius Privacy Policy and Freemius Terms.

Provider integrations. Each service below is contacted only when an administrator has configured its credentials and switched the corresponding feature on, and only while performing the action that needs it. Provider credentials are stored encrypted in WordPress; Yatoon diagnostics must not include them.

Free package providers. Free can use the following optional services when the site owner enables them:

Google Maps – www.google.com/maps (confirmation-page directions map)

OpenAI – api.openai.com (optional AI assistant)

Anthropic – api.anthropic.com (optional AI assistant)

Google Gemini – generativelanguage.googleapis.com (optional AI assistant)

Cloudflare Turnstile – challenges.cloudflare.com (optional booking-form bot check)

Before any customer text can reach an AI provider, an administrator must enable the relevant AI feature, and Yatoon requires explicit one-time customer consent and screens the message for sensitive data. Customer-facing AI is off by default on new installations, and connecting a provider alone does not publish it.

Site owners are responsible for obtaining required consent, publishing an accurate privacy notice, configuring retention, and complying with the rules of their region and chosen providers.
