Team profile pages and a safer switching guide

  • Each team member now has a full profile page with tabs for profile, services, about, portfolio, booking, working hours, breaks, special days, time off and sign-in — no more pop-up that jumps around.
  • Switch & import steps now unlock in order: team after services, bookings after services and clients.
  • Where do I find this file? now lists the systems your type of business usually uses, with a picker for your old system.

How it works

Live in an afternoon.

Three steps. No developer, no committee, no hosting bills.

01

Pick your business type

Barbers, spa, nails, property teams or something else — we preload the right service list, terminology and design.

02

Add your team & hours

Staff, chairs, rooms or beds. Working hours, breaks and closures. Drag to reshape at any time.

03

Share your link

Your branded booking site is live at yourshop.bookappointment.co.uk. Add a property viewing link or custom domain when you're ready.

Product

Everything you need. Nothing you don't.

Your own booking site

A branded site, single booking page or embed widget at yourshop.bookappointment.co.uk or your own domain.

Drag-and-drop website builder

10+ templates, editable header, footer, menus and extra pages with their own SEO. Undo, preview, publish when ready.

Bring your existing website with you

Already have a site? Paste the address and we rebuild it in the builder — your words, photos, prices, hours and pages — as drafts you review before publishing.

Smart calendar

Staff, room and equipment scheduling with buffers, time off, closures, waitlists and recurring group classes.

Customer messaging

Two-way thread per booking. Email and SMS reminders sent automatically, with quiet hours so nothing pings at 3am.

Deposits, payments & Tap to Pay

Take deposits online, tap cards on your iPhone in the chair, and add ID checks for age-restricted services.

Property viewing bookings

Estate agents can add property-specific booking forms to their website, show negotiator availability and let buyers choose a viewing.

Memberships, classes & courts

Gyms and padel clubs can sell recurring memberships, fill classes with waiting lists and let players book free courts at member prices.

Smart waitlist

A cancellation never stays empty for long. Waitlisted customers get a one-tap offer the moment a slot opens — and you see who claimed it.

Group & family bookings

Book for a partner, child or friend in the same reservation — each with their own team member and service, side by side, one payment.

Email campaigns to your own customers

Send a branded offer, quiet-week filler or seasonal update to customers who opted in — filter by team member, service or last visit, preview, test and schedule it.

Reports that matter

Revenue per team member, busiest hours, repeat-rate and waitlist conversions, on dashboard tiles you can scan in seconds.

Why businesses switch

Less admin. Fuller days. Customers that stay yours.

Every feature we build has to earn its place against one test: does it save an hour, save a booking, or make the business look more professional?

24/7

Bookings while you sleep

Two thirds of appointments get booked outside opening hours. Your site takes them, checks availability and confirms instantly — no missed calls, no DMs to answer at 11pm.

Fewer

No-shows, quietly solved

Automatic email and SMS reminders, per-service deposits and card-on-file rules. Cancellation windows are enforced for you, so you stop chasing and start filling the gap.

0%

Commission on your bookings

Marketplaces rent you your own regulars and take a cut forever. You pay one flat monthly fee here — every repeat booking is yours, at full price.

Yours

Your brand, your customer list

Your domain, your logo, your emails, your data. Export everything whenever you want. We never market to your customers behind your back.

We move your data for you, free.

Changing booking system is the job everyone puts off, because nobody wants to lose their customer list. So we do it for you: customers, past and future appointments, your service menu with prices and durations, and your team with their hours. No charge, however long your list is.

  • Nothing goes live until you've seen a preview and approved it
  • Keep taking bookings on your old system while we work
  • We never ask for passwords — only exports you produce yourself
