HappenBoard handles your bookings.
A simple, flexible WordPress booking plugin for coaches and consultants. HappenBoard handles your session bookings and reminders, and Pro takes payments online, so you can focus on transforming lives, not admin work.
Still managing your coaching sessions through DMs & spreadsheets?
Here’s how HappenBoard can provide you concrete solutions for scheduling and client booking:
Before HappenBoard
Phone tag and email ping-pong
You spend hours coordinating session times, sending reminders, and chasing confirmations. Your calendar is a mess of DMs and sticky notes.
No-shows that cost you money
Clients forget, cancel last-minute, or simply don’t show up. Without upfront payments or deposits, there’s no accountability.
Payments collected after the appointment
Chasing invoices post-session is awkward and unprofessional. It delays your cash flow and creates unnecessary friction with clients.
No scalable way to run group sessions
Hosting workshops or group coaching means juggling separate sign-up forms, payment links, and spreadsheets. It barely works.
With HappenBoard
Clients book themselves, 24/7
Your booking page is always open. Clients pick their coach, choose a time, and confirm. No back-and-forth needed, ever.
Automated reminders and deposits
HappenBoard emails a reminder 24 hours and 1 hour before every session. With Pro, take a deposit at booking so last-minute no-shows cost you less.
Payments collected at booking
With Pro, clients pay by card through Stripe when they book. Get paid before the session starts, every time, no chasing.
Group sessions and events, handled
Schedule one-time workshops or recurring group coaching with capacity limits, automated emails and, with Pro, ticket sales, all in one place.

Why choose HappenBoard for your practice?
1
Designed for coaching and consulting businesses just like yours
From one-to-one and group sessions, in person, online or by phone, to recurring workshops, approval before you confirm, automated reminders and, with Pro, Google Calendar and Outlook sync, the HappenBoard booking plugin for coaches gives you full control over your schedule.
2
Your client data stays on your own WordPress site
Bookings live in your own WordPress database: no account to create, no per-booking fee, no telemetry. Spam protection and GDPR export and erasure tools are built in, so you can work with confidence from day one.
3
Works for solo coaches and growing practices alike
Whether you coach solo or run a firm with several consultants and services, HappenBoard grows with you: unlimited hosts and booking types, each host’s own availability, and round-robin assignment.
Already on another events plugin?
One click, recurrence rules included, even if the old plugin is already deactivated. You can export again at any time: your data stays yours.
You ask.
We answer!
We’re featured in
Who owns my data?
You do. Events are standard WordPress posts, attendees export to CSV, JSON or vCard, calendars export to iCal, and GDPR export and erase tools are built in. Nothing is locked in and nothing leaves your site without your opt-in.
Do recurring events really work?
HappenBoard uses the same RRULE standard as Google Calendar, stores every occurrence in an indexed table, and keeps series in sync when you edit them. Pro adds per-occurrence exceptions: skip one date, move another, restore a third.
Can I migrate from The Events Calendar or Events Manager?
Yes, in one click from the admin or with WP-CLI. HappenBoard imports events, venues, organizers and recurrence rules from The Events Calendar, Events Manager, Sugar Calendar, EventKoi and Amelia, plus any .ics file.
Will it work with my theme?
HappenBoard is built from standard blocks that follow your theme’s global styles. Block themes work out of the box, and the main blocks are also available as Elementor widgets.
Can I sell tickets with HappenBoard?
With HappenBoard Pro, yes. Charge through Stripe Checkout or through WooCommerce and any payment gateway it supports. Ticket types have their own price and their own number of seats.
Is HappenBoard Free?
Yes. The Free plugin includes the full calendar, recurring events, RSVPs with capacity limits, appointment booking, migration and exports. HappenBoard Pro adds paid tickets, QR check-in, calendar sync, automations and more.
