Online spa marketplace Wahanda has launched a new mobile booking site to allow' on-the-go' customers to book health and beauty treatments easily and quickly.

The mobile-optimised site was launched in response to 43 per cent of Wahanda customers using their mobile phone to search, view and book appointments.

The new mobile site will allow the customer to log on to Wahanda.com from their phone or
tablet, select the preferred service or treatment icon and it then takes the user
through the site to search the desired location and date and time.

Confirmation of the booking is then sent to the mobile phone via text and email.

Wahanda's CEO, Lopo Champalimaud, said mobile accessibility is paramount to being a viable and competitive online service.

"This is an exciting next step in transforming the digital landscape for beauty & health services, giving customers the most efficient and effective way to coordinate their appointments.

"It also provides our suppliers with an increased audience of potential customers, so is an invaluable added tool to help them reach their full potential," said Champalimaud.
