Booking around the clock
Treatment, date, time, done. They get a confirmation, you get a notification, and nobody has to answer a DM at half ten at night.
Your own site, on your own domain, taking bookings and deposits at midnight on a Sunday. Not a profile on somebody else’s marketplace next to three competitors. Your brand, your clients, your diary. £15 a month, and we’re ten minutes away.
A proper website, and then the six things that save you an evening a week.
Treatment, date, time, done. They get a confirmation, you get a notification, and nobody has to answer a DM at half ten at night.
Take the full amount, a fixed deposit or a percentage. Your call, per treatment. Money lands in your own Stripe account, not ours.
Sent automatically by text and email. This is the single cheapest thing you can do about no-shows.
Let them add a treatment, a massage or a take-home product while they’re already checking out. Average ticket goes up without you asking.
Today, tomorrow, next week. Move an appointment with a tap, block out a lunch or the school run in seconds.
Sold from your own site. Christmas and Mother’s Day tend to pay for the year.
Everything in the Sites plan comes with it, website, domain, hosting, SSL, backups, support. Full Beauty plan →
If you only count the card fee, a marketplace usually wins. Here’s the argument for doing it your own way anyway.
On a marketplace, the client who found you gets marketed to by the platform, sometimes for the salon two streets over. On your own site they’re just yours.
You can’t pay to rank above yourself on your own website. No promoted competitors sitting above your name.
£15 a month whether you take ten bookings or two hundred. Card fee only applies when someone actually pays online.
Every booking through your own domain is a search signal that belongs to you. Marketplace traffic builds their brand, not yours.
The Glow Hut runs exactly this setup: her own site, her own domain, deposits taken at the booking.
Cream and bronze brand, treatments laid out plainly, and a booking flow that takes a deposit before the slot is held. She stopped negotiating times over Instagram DMs and started waking up to a filled-in diary. £15 a month on the Beauty plan.
