How to Add Jobber’s Online Booking to a WordPress Site

If you run a home service business on WordPress, Jobber’s free plugin lets you embed booking and request forms directly on your site. No code, no plugins to configure from scratch. Just a few clicks and your website starts sending leads straight into your Jobber account.

Step 1: Confirm You’re Eligible

Before you install anything, check two things. First, you need a self-hosted WordPress site (WordPress.org) or a WordPress.com Business or Commerce plan, since plugin installs aren’t available on lower WordPress.com tiers. Second, you need an active Jobber account on the Core plan or higher. The plugin itself is free, but it only works with paid Jobber plans.

Step 2: Install the Jobber Plugin

1. Log in to your WordPress admin dashboard.
2. Go to Plugins and select Add New Plugin.
3. Search for Jobber.
4. Click Install Now, then Activate.

Step 3: Connect Your Jobber Account

1. From the Plugins page, click Connect Now on the Jobber banner (or go to the plugin’s Settings and click Connect).
2. Log in with your Jobber credentials.
3. Authorize the connection so WordPress and Jobber can talk to each other.

Step 4: Add the Booking or Request Form to a Page

1. Open the page or post where you want the form to appear, using the WordPress block editor.
2. Click the + icon to add a new block.
3. Search for Jobber and select the Jobber block.
4. In the block settings, choose which form to display: a Booking Form (customers pick a date and time) or a Request Form (customers submit details and you follow up).
5. Publish or update the page.

Step 5: Test the Form

Submit a test entry through the live form on your site. Then check your Jobber account to confirm the new client and request or booking showed up correctly. This is worth doing before you promote the page, since a broken form quietly costs you leads.

Step 6: Decide Where It Lives

Don’t bury the form. A booking or request form works best above the fold on your homepage, your contact page, and any service pages tied to work customers frequently schedule online, like routine maintenance or inspections. The easier it is to find, the more visitors actually use it.

Booking Form vs. Request Form: Which Should You Use?

• Booking Form: Best if you offer standardized services with predictable time slots, like recurring lawn care or HVAC tune-ups. Customers pick a slot and it’s on your calendar.
• Request Form: Best if your jobs vary in scope, like custom remodels or larger repairs, where you need to review details before confirming a time.

One note: for security reasons, the payment method field only shows up when a client accesses the form through their client hub, not when it’s embedded on your website. Clients can add payment info later.

Benefits of Embedding Jobber on Your Website

• Turns website visitors into booked jobs without a phone call
• Keeps new client and job data in one place, automatically
• Lets you offer 24/7 booking without adding office work
• Matches your site’s design, so it doesn’t feel bolted on
