The Wix Bookings Next.js Template is a web-starter project for building appointment-based professional service sites powered by Wix Headless Bookings and Wix Pricing Plans. It pairs the Next.js 13 App Router with Wix's booking and subscription APIs to handle session scheduling, client payment plans, and content pages out of the box.
What is the Wix Bookings Next.js Template?
This template is a Next.js application bootstrapped with create-next-app that connects to a Wix Headless project through the Wix JavaScript SDK. It uses the Wix Bookings solution to let visitors schedule appointments and the Wix Pricing Plans solution to offer recurring packages or subscriptions. The template requires a Wix project with the Bookings and Pricing Plans apps installed, and it exposes a complete coaching site with a home page, service listings, and booking-oriented flows. The frontend runs on Next.js 13 with the App Router, and the backend relies entirely on Wix's hosted services.

What can you do with it?
- Fitness coaches: Let clients book personal training sessions directly through your site, with availability managed by Wix Bookings.

How does the template work?
The template connects to a Wix Headless project you create and configure. You add the Bookings and Pricing Plans apps, authorize the template through quick start or an OAuth app, copy the environment file to .env.local, and paste your Wix client ID into NEXT_PUBLIC_WIX_CLIENT_ID. After running npm run dev (or yarn dev), the site loads at localhost:3000.
FAQ
Is a Wix account required?
Yes. You must create a Wix Headless project and install the Bookings and Pricing Plans apps before the template can fetch or write booking data.
What environment variables are needed?
Only one: NEXT_PUBLIC_WIX_CLIENT_ID, which should contain the client ID of an OAuth app authorized to access your Wix project's data.
Which Next.js version does the template use?
It uses Next.js 13 with the App Router and React Server Components, so it requires a deployment platform that supports Next.js 13.
Can I customize the homepage?
Yes. Edit app/page.tsx to change the content, and the page auto-updates during development. For other routes, follow the same file-based routing pattern.
Does the template include pricing or payment pages?
The Wix Pricing Plans integration handles plan creation and payment processing on the Wix side, while the template provides the booking flow and plan display components.
