Online Appointment Booking from Facebook Page

You can now use the Charm Web Embed feature to add a 'Book Now' button to your Facebook Business page, which is another great way to increase your Appointment bookings. This feature enables your Patients to book Appointments instantly from your Facebook page.

If you have already created the Charm Web Embed and using it in your Practice Website to book Appointments, you can straight away go through the steps below to add a 'Book Now' button to your Facebook Business page.

Before you get started, you need to:

  • Enable Web Embed Calendar in your Charm EHR Account
  • Have a Facebook Account (Facebook sign-in required) with a Business Page
