Continue with Facebook Feature
Overview
The Continue with Facebook feature in Mysched allows your clients to quickly and easily fill out their personal information during the booking process by using their Facebook account credentials. This feature helps streamline the booking process, making it more efficient and ensuring that customer information is accurate. Like the Continue with Google feature, it is automatically enabled for all Pro and higher Mysched plans—tenants do not need to configure or adjust any settings for this feature to work.
Key Benefits of the Continue with Facebook Feature
-
Time-Saving Convenience: Customers can bypass manual data entry by using the Continue with Facebook button, which automatically fills in personal information such as their name and email from their Facebook account.
-
Increased Accuracy: By retrieving data directly from Facebook, the chances of errors or typos in the booking form are greatly reduced, ensuring that customer details are correct.
-
Improved User Experience: Offering the option to log in via Facebook simplifies the booking process, providing a more streamlined and user-friendly experience for customers who prefer using social media logins.
How It Works
The Continue with Facebook button appears on the information step of the booking panel. When customers choose this option, they are prompted to log in to their Facebook account (if they are not already signed in). Once authenticated, Mysched retrieves basic information, such as the customer’s name and email address, and automatically fills in the required fields on the booking form.
Step-by-Step Process for Clients
-
Select Continue with Facebook: On the booking panel's information step, your customers will see the Continue with Facebook button.
-
Facebook Authentication: When they click the button, a Facebook login window will open. If the customer is not logged into Facebook, they will be prompted to sign in and grant Mysched permission to access their basic profile information.
-
Auto-Filled Information: Once the customer is authenticated, their name, email, and other relevant information will automatically populate the booking form. The customer can then proceed to the next step in the booking process.
Why is This Feature Important?
Efficiency for Clients
Even though entering personal details manually is not particularly difficult, automating this step makes the process faster and easier for customers. With a single click, they can skip typing in their details and complete the booking more quickly.
Reducing Errors
Manual data entry is prone to errors such as typos or incorrect formatting. The Continue with Facebook feature eliminates this risk by pulling information directly from the customer’s Facebook account, ensuring greater accuracy.
Enhanced Customer Experience
Offering a familiar and widely used option like Facebook login simplifies the process for users. Many clients already have their personal information saved on Facebook, and they appreciate the convenience of not having to manually enter their details when booking an appointment.
No Setup Required for Tenants
This feature is available by default for all Mysched Pro and higher-tier plans. There is no need for tenants to configure any settings to enable it. The Continue with Facebook button will appear on the booking panel, ready for customers to use without any additional setup.
Conclusion
The Continue with Facebook feature provides a seamless, convenient, and accurate method for customers to fill in their information during the booking process. It is an excellent tool for enhancing customer satisfaction and reducing errors. Since it is automatically enabled for Pro and higher plans, tenants can offer this feature without any extra effort or configuration.
