Choose your workflow
The right setup depends less on an industry label and more on what happens before the work is confirmed.
Appointment-led
Publish services, show live availability and keep repeat appointments, packages, reminders and payments connected.
Quote-led
Capture the enquiry, respond with a clear quote and turn agreed work into a scheduled booking without rebuilding the customer record.
Mobile and local
Keep the customer, location, scheduled work, assigned staff and payment status together so the office and field team share one view.
Keep the people, resources and paperwork for each job together. Choose the tools that fit the way your business works.
A treatment, lesson or studio session can need a staff member, a room or both. Available times follow their working hours and closures.
Assign the staff and rooms each service can use. A booking that needs both reserves them together, so the room is shared safely across different team members.
Rooms are a Pro feature.
Run a class, club or shared appointment with minimum numbers, capacity and one reserved session. Add the people attending and choose who pays for their booking.
Per-person pricing supports one payer, separate contact bills or split payers. A fixed whole-group price uses one organiser’s booking with one or split payers. When waivers are enabled, each payer signs for the participants on their bill. The attendance register keeps everyone in one list.
Group bookings are enabled separately for your business. Waivers require Pro.
When a customer needs a tailored price, review their request and create a custom-priced booking. Book a time, schedule later or track work without an appointment.
A photographer, cleaner or event professional can keep customer details, job notes and the agreed price together. Delivery-only work can have an optional due date without reserving staff or a room. Send an itemised bill and follow the balance as payments arrive.
Customer quote requests are a Pro feature.
