# Online booking for car detailing Source: https://terminio.ai/en/branchen/car-detailing Online booking, WhatsApp reminders and a phone assistant that picks up while the polisher is running. For detailers and valeting studios. Book, get paid, remind, answer. While the polisher is running. In the browser, apps coming soon. ## For you. And for your customers. - Your page. Open around the clock. Customers book in the evening, on Sundays, on the go: pick an interior clean, a polish or a ceramic coating, pick the vehicle size, pick a day, done. No account, no phone call. In your design, with your logo. - Paid up front. If customers want to. If a service has a price, customers can pay it right at booking, by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. Anyone who would rather pay on site books without payment. Secure through Stripe. - No call gets lost any more. The AI assistant answers while the polisher is running: around the clock, in German. It asks whether it's a small car, an estate or an SUV, quotes the price, checks free days, books and summarises every call in the app. Pet hair and smoke smell it hands over to you. - Reminds about the slot, the keys and pick-up. Confirmation on every booking, a reminder the evening before, plus the key hand-over time and your note to empty the car out. From your number, in your words. You don't type a single message, not even in spring. - One calendar for the whole bay. Bays, services, who's in: terminio works the free days out from them. A ceramic coating blocks the bay for the whole day, an interior clean for two hours. Customer records, statistics and reports included. - At the front desk, in the browser. Apps coming soon. Web app at the front desk. Coming soon: apps for iPhone and Android and the smartwatch for the next hand-over without taking the gloves off. One account, the same picture everywhere. Database in the EU (Frankfurt). ## Common questions **My prices depend on the size of the car. Does that work?** Yes. You set the service up per size, say interior clean for a small car, an estate and an SUV, each with its own duration and price. Customers pick their size, and the phone assistant asks for it. **What about jobs that take the whole day?** Every service carries its own duration. An eight-hour ceramic coating only appears on days when the bay is free. Gaps that are too short never show up as availability. **Can I take a deposit on big jobs?** A deposit as a partial amount is not available at the moment. Once you set up online payment, customers can pay the full price of the ceramic coating right at booking, secure through Stripe; anyone who would rather pay at collection books without payment. **Customers drop the car off in the morning and collect it in the evening. How does the reminder handle that?** The reminder goes out the evening before, with the key hand-over time and your note to empty the car out. You add the pick-up time in your own words. **How do I check the condition of the car beforehand?** The phone assistant asks about the car and its condition and summarises everything in the app. For pet hair, smoke smell or badly scratched paint it hands the call over to you instead of guessing a price. Customers send you photos on WhatsApp. **Do my customers need an app or an account?** No. They open your link, pick a service, a vehicle size and a day and enter their name and mobile number. That's it. **Does every WhatsApp reminder cost extra?** No. The Free plan includes five reminders a month, from Pro they are unlimited. There is no cost per message. --- terminio.ai is online appointment booking for small businesses with WhatsApp reminders and an AI phone assistant, from €0 a month.
