Brand Colors lets you match your patient-facing pages to your clinic’s look. Pick a brand color and a page color, and Decoda applies them to self-scheduling, payment receipts, invoices, and the embeddable chat widget. Where to find it: Settings > Brand Colors.
Changes save automatically as you pick colors — there’s no Save button. The previews on the right update live so you can see how each page will look.

Pick Your Colors

1

Open Brand Colors

Go to Settings > Brand Colors.
2

Set Your Brand Color

The Brand Color is used for buttons, links, and the receipt header — it’s the main accent patients see. Click the color swatch to open the color picker, or type a hex value (like #4A5D4E) into the box next to it.
3

Set Your Page Color

The Page Color is the background for pages, cards, and panels. A soft off-white usually works best, but anything goes as long as the contrast check is happy (see below).
4

Review the Previews

On the right side of the page, you’ll see four live previews — Self-Schedule, Chat Widget, Receipt, and Invoice. Each one updates as you change colors so you can confirm the result before you publish.
Colors save automatically about a second after you stop adjusting them. There’s no need to click anything.

Contrast Check

If your two colors are too close in tone, a Contrast check panel appears under the color pickers. It calls out any pair that doesn’t meet accessibility minimums so patients with low vision can still read your pages. The check follows the WCAG accessibility standard:
  • Main Text on Page Color — body text needs at least a 4.5:1 contrast ratio.
  • Brand Color on Page Color — buttons need at least 3:1.
  • Link Color on Page Color — links need at least 4.5:1 to stay readable as text.
Each issue lists the measured ratio and the minimum it should hit. A yellow warning means the pair is borderline; a red error means it’s hard to read and should be fixed before you ship the change. Adjust either color until the panel disappears.
The contrast warnings don’t block saving — your colors apply either way. They’re guidance to keep your pages readable for every patient.

Where Your Colors Show Up

The booking page patients use to pick a service and time. Your brand color highlights the selected service, the Book button, and other interactive elements.
The embeddable chat bubble that lives on your website. The bubble background and the send button both pick up your brand color. The widget pulls these colors automatically — there’s nothing extra to configure on your site.
The receipt header bar uses your brand color, and the page background uses your page color. Patients see this when they open a receipt link or get a receipt by email.
Invoice PDFs and the online invoice page both pick up your brand and page colors so they match the rest of your patient-facing communications.

Reverting to Defaults

If you want to start over, type the default hex values into the inputs:
  • Brand Color: #4A5D4E
  • Page Color: #FAF6F0
The previews update right away and the change saves itself.
  • Practice Name and Logo — Set in General Preferences. Your logo sits next to the brand color on patient-facing pages.
  • Calendar Appearance — Per-user calendar colors and styles are configured separately in Settings > Calendar Appearance, not here.
