Quick start
Install Hollow Reserve, choose a plan, and publish your first Experience Blueprint with a bookable client journey.
Use this checklist to go from install to a published blueprint in under 15 minutes. Hollow Reserve works standalone — you do not need Arcanum Engine or Hollow Sentinel to sell experiences on Shopify.
Checklist
- Install Hollow Reserve from the Shopify App Store or your Arcanum partner link.
- Open the app from Shopify Admin → Apps → Hollow Reserve.
- Choose a subscription plan (Starter includes a 7-day trial).
- Open Command Center — follow the Setup progress card (publish blueprint, add staff, set default experience, add theme block, connect email, test booking).
- Go to Blueprints — pick a vertical template (salon, spa, studio) or create from scratch, then publish.
- Enable the theme app extension in your Online Store theme editor and place the booking widget.
- Book a test appointment on your storefront and confirm it appears on Calendar and in Clients.
- Optional on Professional+: enable consultation intake, deposits via Shopify checkout, SMS reminders, waitlist, and Klaviyo journey sync for client email flows.
- Optional on Studio: add memberships, session packages, rebooking automation, and POS check-in.
