I've never heard of pre-booking to mean pre-paying. A pre-book is just an appointment that is booked ahead of time.
"Booking" is something that is done within a few hours or few minutes of the appointment time. "Pre-booking" is done days or weeks in advance.

Pre-book just means you are booking in advance instead of making a same day appointment.
