# Adding extra time to a booking from the survey

**Adding the different fields to the survey** with questions and answers that your users can fill in from the online calendar before booking, providing information or explanations during the survey and setting up the flow between the different survey options, is done in a **very simple and visual way in TuCalendi**.

In addition, **from the survey** you **can add extra time to the appointment**, depending on the answers your users give to the questions you ask to gather the information you need for the meeting they are going to book with you.

> [!TIP]
> We have developed a **visual editor** that lets you build the survey and set up the flow between the different steps.

[Log in](https://account.tucalendi.com/login) to your TuCalendi account. Go to the **"Survey Templates"** option:

![Survey templates](https://www.tucalendi.com/images/content/surveys/en/v2-survey-templates.png)

To create a new survey, click on **"New"**.

There are two types of surveys available:

- **Standard**. This is a new survey that can be assigned to each event type.
- [Standalone](https://www.tucalendi.com/en/s/surveys/creating-an-intelligent-survey-with-routing). This is a new survey that can be used as a **standalone widget** and with **routing** to different event types.

To add extra time to a booking, just enter the **number of extra minutes** the appointment will have in the **"Add time"** field. When you are done, click on **"Add"**:

You can either **add time** to a booking or **subtract time** from the appointment. Just select **"+"** to add time or **"-"** to subtract minutes.

When you have added the options and completed the flow by **joining the boxes**, click **"Save"**.

To make the survey visible, you must [**choose the event you want to associate the template with**](https://www.tucalendi.com/en/s/availability-configuration-events/assigning-survey-event). This way your users and customers can answer the survey you have created. In this case, **30 minutes will be added to the normal meeting time**.

> [!TIP]
> From the survey and based on your clients' answers, you also have the option to **subtract time** from the booking.
