CATbooking modules
For CATbooking there are several optional modules available.
Online booking standard: With the standard variant of online booking you have the possibility to choose from several layouts. In addition to choosing a standard layout, you can also define the colors and fonts yourself. You can book on object group, object type and on individual object level. This standard variant online booking uses an iFrame.
This iFrame is easy to fit into your website so that the costs can remain low.
