Checkout Customization
Configure Checkout Settings
How to set the page title, success message, return URL, behavior toggles, and section title text for your Resytech booking checkout.
General checkout settings control the text customers see, how the booking flow behaves, and where customers go after completing a purchase. These are the foundational settings you should configure before customizing the theme or adding custom code.
Before you begin
- You need access to the Resytech Dashboard with permission to edit checkout settings.
- Have your post-booking redirect URL ready if you want to send customers to a specific page on your website.
Steps
- In the sidebar, click Checkout Settings. The checkout settings page opens with a sidebar of tabs.
- Select the General tab (this is the default).
- Configure the fields in each section, then click Save Changes at the top of the page.
General settings reference
Text and URL settings
| Field | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Page Title | Book Your Adventure | Shown in the browser tab and at the top of the checkout page. Keep it short and action-oriented. |
| Return URL | (empty) | The full URL customers are redirected to after completing a booking (e.g., https://yoursite.com/thank-you). If left empty, customers stay on the Resytech confirmation page. |
| Success Message | Thank you for your booking! You will receive a confirmation email shortly. | Displayed on the confirmation screen after a successful purchase. Supports plain text. |
Behavior settings
| Setting | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Show Activity Selector | On | When enabled, customers see a page listing all published activities and choose one. Disable this if you link directly to a specific activity from your website. |
| Auto-redirect to First Activity | Off | Skip the activity selector entirely and send customers straight to your first published activity. Only available when Show Activity Selector is turned off. |
| Auto-select Single Equipment | On | When an activity has only one equipment option, it is selected automatically so the customer skips that step. |
| Allow Guest Checkout | On | Let customers complete bookings without creating an account. Turning this off requires customers to log in or register. |
Title text settings
These labels appear as section headings during the booking flow. Customize them to match your terminology.
| Field | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Duration Title Text | Select Duration | Heading above the duration picker. For hourly rentals you might use Choose Your Rental Time. |
| Date Title Text | Select Date | Heading above the date calendar. |
| Time Slot Title Text | Select Time | Heading above the available time slots. |
| Popup Window Title | Book Your Experience | Title shown in the booking popup when the checkout is embedded as a widget. |
Booking card settings
These control how the booking card and equipment pages present their controls and images.
| Setting | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Quantity Select Type | Dropdown | How the quantity picker renders: a dropdown or tappable pill buttons. |
| Duration Select Type | Pills | How the duration picker renders: a dropdown or tappable pill buttons. |
| Guest & Ticket Selector Style (Tours) | Dropdown | How customers pick guests or tickets per category on tour activities: a dropdown per category, or a stepper row with +/− buttons showing each category's name and per-person price. Applies to tours only -- other activity types always use the dropdown. |
| Show Seats Available | On | Whether time slots and the tour guest selector display remaining seat counts (e.g., "12 seats available"). Turning it off also strips the counts from the public API response, so they cannot be read from the network either; "Fully booked" always shows. Embeds can additionally hide counts per page via showSeatsAvailable: false on /init -- an embed cannot re-enable a setting that is turned off. |
| Quantity / Duration / Date Note | (empty) | Optional short note shown under the matching control. Each note has a display style: plain Text, a Warning Alert, or an Info Alert. |
| Equipment Slideshow Layout | 2 × 2 | Desktop only. 2 × 2 shows two slides side by side; 1 × 2 features one large image with a scrolling thumbnail strip below. |
| Equipment Category Display | Small Image | Applies to activities with Allow Equipment Mixing enabled (multi-item selection). Small Image shows a thumbnail beside each category title; Large Image shows a full-width banner photo above it. |
Tips
- Auto-redirect is great for single-activity businesses. If you only offer one activity (e.g., jet ski rentals), turn off the activity selector and enable auto-redirect so customers land directly on the booking calendar.
- Auto-redirect and Show Activity Selector are linked. The auto-redirect checkbox is disabled when the activity selector is turned on, because there is no reason to skip a page that is already hidden.
- Return URL is optional but recommended. Sending customers back to your website after booking gives you control over the post-purchase experience, lets you display upsells, or simply keeps visitors on your domain.
- Unsaved changes are protected. If you switch tabs with unsaved edits, the dashboard prompts you to confirm before discarding changes.
