Enable Services for Sparkforge Sub-Accounts

By Sparkforge Support Team ·Last reviewed May 3, 2026

Services is Sparkforge's enhanced booking tool for service businesses. Enable it from Agency Settings per sub-account or in bulk via Sub-Accounts > Bulk Actions > Setup Calendars.

Services is the upgraded booking and scheduling tool for service businesses in Sparkforge. It runs alongside existing Calendars, so turning it on does not break anything you already configured. Use it when you need add-ons, resources, staff-specific pricing, or multi-service checkout.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will enabling Services break my existing calendars or workflows?
No. Sparkforge copies your existing service calendars into equivalent Services. Existing calendars and workflows continue to run, and you can use both side by side.
Do I need to connect a payment provider before enabling Services?
No, but you have to connect one before you can collect payments on the booking page.
Can I enable Services for only some sub-accounts?
Yes. Activation is per sub-account, so you can roll out selectively. Other sub-accounts stay on their current setup.
Are Services included in Snapshots?
Yes. Calendar Services, Service Add-Ons, Service Categories, and Service Resources are all selectable when creating or restoring a Snapshot.
Can I edit a Service Appointment after it is booked?
Yes for unpaid appointments (services, add-ons, duration, staff, time, and more). Paid appointments restrict structural changes; use Duplicate Appointment to clone, edit, and rebook.
