An accomplished Square Online developer is requested to seamlessly integrate a calendar booking system into a venue website. The objective is to allow customers to book and pay for events on the website via Square's appointment functionality, while simultaneously blocking undesired weekends from the venue calendar.
Specifically, the developer will connect the venue's Square account to display an online calendar on the website. Website visitors must be able to browse available dates and make a reservation, but the booking should only be confirmed upon payment processing through Square. Simultaneously, the venue owner requires administration access to the calendar in order to blacklist weekends or dates the space is unavailable.
Upon booking confirmation, the developer will ensure relevant event details - like customer information, date, headcount etc. are sychronized between the website reservation and Square appointment. Both the customer and venue owner should receive automated notifications for all booking activity and inquiries. The integrated solution aims to provide a seamless, contactless reservation and payment experience for customers while keeping the venue owner informed of upcoming events through their connected Square account.
The freelancer selected for this project will have an advanced working knowledge of Square Online APIs and capabilities. They should be equipped to design, code and implement the calendar/booking integration according to the specifications outlined. Customer experience and data synchronization between systems will be top priorities.
