Ever felt that you wanted to draw your customers' attention during the booking process? Then Eyecatchers are here to help!
To set up an Eyecatcher you first need to go to Account > Extension Store and install Eyecatchers.
Once installed you will find Eyecatchers in the list here when you go to Account.
You can use them for anything you want to promote to your guests such as selling Gift Vouchers, advertising upcoming events or restaurant and bar opening times.
How do a I set up an Eyecatcher?
Click on ADD EYECATCHER
Title - optional
You can give your eyecatcher a title such as
Gift Vouchers
Description - compulsory field
If you are just informing guests about something and aren't using a title or linking out to a page you can just add a description here and we will centre it within the eyecatcher.
If you have a title the description will sit under the title. So if you are using it to sell Gift vouchers you could add here Looking for a Gift Voucher for someone?
Background and Text Colours
Here you can set the colours to match your booking engine or website colours.
If you are used to using Hex colours then you can change this by clicking on the up and down arrows here.
โ
Link Location
If you want to link your guests to a separate page - For example for them to buy gift vouchers you need to add the page link here.
For Gift Vouchers you need to add /gift-vouchers
This will then show as a Learn More button on the Eyecatcher
Preview
You will then see a preview of what your Gift Voucher looks like, so for my example it would look like this,
