Categories enable the customer (and you) to easily find what they want to add to their booking. You can see some examples on the Extra's overview page.

Your Categories will show on your booking screen after your customer has selected their room (as shown below) and in your iBex system when you add an extra to a booking.

If the customer clicks on the Details option it will provide them with a full description of the extra's in that category.
