Shopify booking shop + Google calendar 2 way sync ## Project Title Shopify Bowling Lane Booking System with Google Calendar Sync & Stripe Integration --- ## Project Overview We are building a Shopify-based booking system for a bowling venue with 5 lanes. Customers must be able to book lanes in real-time, while availability is synchronized with Google Calendar where some bookings are manually managed by staff. The system must prevent double bookings and allow flexible pricing, packages, and real-time availability updates. --- ## Scope of Work ### 1. Shopify Store Setup - Configure Shopify store for booking-based services (not just physical products) - Integrate a suitable booking app (or develop a custom solution if required) - Ensure clean UX for selecting: - Date - Time slot - Bowling lane (resource) --- ### 2. Booking System (Core Requirement) - 5 bowling lanes treated as independent resources - Each lane must have: - Individual pricing - Independent availability - Customers can: - Select a lane - Select time slots - Book and pay online - System must: - Prevent double bookings - Support buffer time between bookings - Allow admin control over availability --- ### 3. Google Calendar Integration (Critical) We require 2-way synchronization with Google Calendar: #### A. Shopify → Google Calendar - Every confirmed booking creates an event in Google Calendar - Event must include: - Lane number - Time - Customer name #### B. Google Calendar → Shopify - If admin adds or edits a booking in Google Calendar: - The corresponding time slot must be blocked in Shopify - The correct lane must be marked unavailable ⚠️ This is a critical requirement. The system must avoid conflicts between manual and online bookings. --- ### 4. Packages & Offers - Ability to sell bundled offers such as: - “2-hour bowling + drinks” - Group packages - Event deals - Packages must integrate with booking logic (time + lane allocation) --- ### 5. Payment Integration - Full integration with Stripe via Shopify - Support: - Full payment - Optional deposit-based bookings (nice to have) --- ### 6. Automation / Middleware (if needed) - Use of automation tools (e.g. Zapier / Make) OR - Custom middleware (Node.js, Python, etc.) to handle: - Calendar sync - Availability updates - Conflict prevention --- ## Technical Requirements - Strong experience with Shopify (apps, APIs, customisation) - Experience with booking systems or scheduling platforms - Experience integrating Google Calendar API - Experience with Stripe payments - Ability to build reliable 2-way sync systems - Clean, maintainable architecture --- ## Deliverables - Fully functional Shopify booking system - Google Calendar fully synchronized (2-way) - No double booking issues - Clean and intuitive frontend UX - Documentation for admin use - Optional: short walkthrough video --- ## Nice to Have - Experience with booking apps such as Sesami or BookThatApp - Experience building custom Shopify apps - UX/UI optimisation for conversion - Performance optimisation --- ## Timeline - Preferred: 1–3 weeks depending on approach --- ## Budget - Open to proposals (fixed or hourly) - Please justify based on approach (app-based vs custom build) --- ## To Apply Please include: - Examples of similar booking systems you’ve built - Explanation of how you would handle Google Calendar 2-way sync - Recommended architecture (apps vs custom backend) - Estimated timeline --- ## Notes We are looking for a long-term partner if the collaboration goes well. Future work may include additional automation, analytics, and system expansion.

Hi, I hope you're doing well! I'd love to help you build this Shopify bowling lane booking system. Here's my approach: Lane-based booking: Each of the 5 lanes set up as an independent resource with its own availability and pricing. 2-way Google Calendar sync: Using a custom middleware or Make/Zapier to ensure Shopify and Calendar stay in perfect sync with no conflicts. Stripe payments: Full checkout with optional deposit support. Packages: Bundle deals tied directly to lane and time slot logic. Three questions before I dive in: Do you currently use any Shopify booking app like Sesami or BookThatApp, or are you open to a fully custom solution? Should customers be able to choose a specific lane, or just a time slot with auto-assignment? Do you have an existing Shopify store, or does this need to be set up from scratch? Looking forward to being your long-term tech partner on this! Azeem Amin

Hi, This is Elias from Miami. I checked your project description and understand you're looking to create a Shopify booking system that syncs with Google Calendar to facilitate two-way scheduling. This will streamline bookings for your bowling lane business. I’ve worked on several similar platforms and understand the key technical challenges involved. I would approach this by ensuring seamless API integration between Shopify and Google Calendar, allowing for real-time updates and efficient management of bookings. I have a few questions to get a better understanding: Q1 – What specific features do you want for the booking system (e.g., availability, cancellations)? Q2 – Are there any existing systems or plugins you currently use that need to be integrated? Q3 – How do you envision handling user roles and permissions for managing bookings? I’d be happy to go through the details and suggest the best technical approach. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Hello, I understand you need a robust Shopify booking system for a 5-lane bowling venue with real-time availability, 2-way Google Calendar sync, Stripe payments, and flexible packages. I will design a clean, responsive flow where customers pick date, time, and lane, with per-lane pricing and explicit buffers to prevent overlaps. The system will push confirmed bookings to Google Calendar and reflect manual calendar changes back in Shopify to avoid conflicts. I’ll architect a reliable 2-way sync (preferably via a lightweight Node/Python middleware or a trusted automation tool) with clear state management, admin controls, and permissions. Packages and offers will tie directly into the booking logic, ensuring correct timing and lane allocation. I’ll deliver clear admin docs and optional walkthrough video. What is the preferred approach for the 2-way Google Calendar sync (custom middleware vs an established integration), and what is your preferred hosting/maintenance plan for the middleware? Best regards,

Interesting project, I will build your 5-lane booking system on Shopify with real-time availability, Google Calendar two-way sync, Stripe payments, and package support. For the sync, I will use a custom lightweight middleware — likely Node.js — that listens to Google Calendar webhooks and Shopify order events simultaneously. Webhooks beat polling here because availability updates within seconds rather than minutes, which is critical when staff are manually blocking lanes in Google Calendar while customers are booking online. The middleware will enforce a lane-level lock to prevent race conditions that cause double bookings. Questions: 1) Do you already have a Shopify booking app in mind (Sesami, BookThatApp), or are you open to a fully custom approach? Looking forward to potentially working together. Thanks, Kamran

Hello, I understand you need a Shopify-based booking system for a five-lane bowling venue with real-time lane selection, individual lane pricing, and strict 2-way Google Calendar sync to prevent conflicts between online and manually managed bookings. My approach is to implement a robust, scalable booking layer on Shopify (using either Sesami/BookThatApp or a lightweight custom module) that treats each lane as a separate resource with independent availability and pricing. A reliable 2-way sync will be built (via a middleware layer) to push confirmed bookings to Google Calendar and to block gaps in Shopify when staff updates Google events. We’ll ensure buffers, prevent double-bookings, and allow staff to adjust availability easily. The architecture will be clean, maintainable, and well-documented, with Stripe integration for full or deposit-based payments, and support for bundles like “2-hour bowling + drinks.” One placeholder remains for your input: What Shopify booking app do you prefer (e.g., Sesami, BookThatApp) or should I build a custom solution? Do you want a middleware option (custom Node.js/Python) or rely on Zapier/Make for the sync?. Key technical questions to confirm scope: What Shopify booking app do you prefer (e.g., Sesami, BookThatApp) or should I build a custom solution? What deposit model would you like (full payment now vs deposit with balance)? How should buffer times be configured per lane (constant or per-slot variability)? Any specific Google Calendar

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ✅Hi there, hope you are doing well! I recently developed a Shopify-based booking platform with real-time resource allocation that synced seamlessly with external calendars, enabling easy management and avoiding conflicts. From my experience, the key to success is ensuring flawless 2-way synchronization with Google Calendar to prevent double bookings and maintain up-to-the-minute availability. Approach: ⭕ Configure Shopify with an advanced booking app or custom solution tailored to 5 independent bowling lanes. ⭕ Implement flexible pricing and package options with a user-friendly UX for date, time, and lane selection. ⭕ Develop robust 2-way Google Calendar API integration to sync bookings and manual entries reliably. ⭕ Integrate Stripe payments, supporting full and deposit options. ⭕ Use custom middleware if necessary for automation and conflict resolution. ❓ Could you clarify if you prefer an app-based solution, or would a custom middleware backend architecture be acceptable? I am confident I can deliver a performant, maintainable system within your timeline and budget while ensuring flawless user experience and booking reliability. Looking forward to collaborating.

Hey, I’ve reviewed your project and understand you need a Shopify based booking system for bowling lanes with real time availability, Stripe payments, and a reliable 2 way sync with Google Calendar to prevent conflicts. The goal is to create a smooth booking experience where customers can select lanes and time slots while ensuring staff managed bookings stay perfectly aligned. I will implement this using a hybrid approach with a booking app like Sesami or a custom Shopify app depending on flexibility needs. The core system will treat each lane as an independent resource with pricing, buffers, and availability rules. For the critical 2 way sync, I will build a middleware layer using Node.js or Make to handle event creation from Shopify to Google Calendar and continuously monitor calendar updates to block or update slots in Shopify. This ensures no double bookings and real time consistency across both systems. Before delivery, I will test all booking scenarios including manual calendar entries, package bookings, and payment flows to ensure accuracy and stability. You’ll receive a fully functional system, clean UX, and clear documentation with optional walkthrough. Let’s connect so I can confirm the best architecture and timeline for your setup.

Hi, I understand you need a reliable Shopify booking system for 5 bowling lanes with real-time availability and true 2-way Google Calendar sync to prevent any double bookings. I’ll approach this by using a proven booking app (like Sesami/BookThatApp) for core scheduling, combined with a custom middleware layer (Node.js or Make/Zapier) to handle bi-directional sync—ensuring every Shopify booking creates a calendar event, and any manual Google Calendar entry instantly blocks the correct lane and time slot in Shopify. I will configure lane-based resources, pricing, time slots with buffers, and package logic, then integrate Stripe for payments and optional deposits. The system will be tested end-to-end to guarantee conflict-free bookings and smooth UX. You’ll receive a fully working booking store, synced calendar system, admin documentation, and a simple walkthrough for managing availability and bookings. Ready to start right away. Usman Bashir
