Can clients book without calling or messaging me?

Yes. The Bizzly booking portal shows your real-time availability. Clients book, pay upfront, and receive a confirmation, all without any involvement from you.

Can I take bookings from social media?

Yes. Your booking page is built into your Bizzly website. Share your Bizzly site URL in your Instagram bio or Facebook page, clients tap the link, land on your booking page, and pay upfront.

Can I set minimum notice for bookings?

Yes. You set a minimum notice period (e.g. 24 or 48 hours). Same-day bookings are blocked unless you choose to allow them.

How does the cancellation policy work?

You define your cancellation window (e.g. 24 hours). Cancellations made before it receive a full refund. Cancellations inside the window forfeit the payment automatically, the system enforces your policy.

Can different treatments have different booking settings?

Yes. Each treatment can have its own duration, price, minimum notice period, and cancellation policy.

Does the booking system work for group treatments?

Yes. Group sessions (e.g. a hen party pamper package) can be set up with a maximum participant count. Booking is per group slot, and all participants receive the WhatsApp confirmation.

What happens if a client doesn't show?

Their payment is forfeited per your policy. The slot can be marked as a no-show in the system. The client's profile is updated so you can see their attendance history.

What is Beauty Salon Booking Software?

Salon booking software replaces manual appointment coordination via phone, text, and social media with a self-service portal your clients use at any time of day.

✓ Clients book directly from a branded portal or your website
✓ Full upfront payment required at the time of booking via Stripe
✓ Real-time availability blocks confirmed slots instantly
✓ Rescheduling within your permitted window handled by the client
✓ Automatic WhatsApp reminders sent before every appointment

The result is fewer missed messages, zero double-bookings, and a professional booking experience that builds client trust before they even arrive.

The problems beauty salon booking software solves

Manual workarounds that cost beauty salon businesses hours every week.

Booking appointments via Instagram DMs and WhatsApp

Managing availability across a dozen conversations, checking your mental calendar, and confirming by message is unreliable and exhausting at scale.

Double-booking two clients for the same slot

Without a real-time calendar confirming each booking instantly, double-bookings happen. They're embarrassing, damage trust, and take time to resolve.

No-shows eating your most profitable slots

Without payment required at booking, clients cancel at the last minute or simply don't arrive. Your slot goes unfilled and you lose the income.

Spending evenings replying to "are you free Thursday?" messages

Every availability enquiry that could be answered by a booking link takes time from your personal life and professional development.

How Bizzly works

From sign-up to your first paid booking in under 15 minutes.

Choose your industry Launch Pack

Pick the pre-configured template for your industry. Subscription plans, booking calendar, and Stripe payments are already set up, just add your services and rates.

Customer pays first, then books

A customer subscribes or buys a session pack. Stripe processes the payment. Bizzly creates their quota. They can now book sessions up to their limit.

Calendar enforces quota automatically

The booking calendar only shows slots to customers who have available quota. No double-bookings, no unpaid slots, no manual checking, the system handles it.

The Solution

How Bizzly handles beauty salon booking software

Purpose-built features for beauty salon businesses — not bolted-on workarounds.

Self-service booking portal

A clean, branded portal where clients browse your treatments, select a time slot, pay for their appointment, and receive instant confirmation, without contacting you.

Self-service scheduling

Upfront-payment bookings

Clients can only confirm a booking after paying the full appointment price via Stripe. Every slot on your calendar is paid for before it's confirmed.

No-show protection

WhatsApp appointment reminders

Clients receive a WhatsApp reminder 24 hours before their appointment. Dramatically reduces no-shows and last-minute cancellations.

24h WhatsApp reminders

Google Calendar sync

Your personal Google Calendar syncs with your booking portal. Personal commitments block appointment slots automatically. No double-booking risk.

Real-time calendar sync

Real-world use cases

How beauty salon booking software works in practice.

Use case 1

Solo therapist taking all bookings online

Share your Bizzly booking link in your Instagram bio. Clients book directly, pay upfront, and receive a WhatsApp confirmation, without a single message from you.

Use case 2

Multi-treatment salon with separate staff calendars

Each therapist has their own calendar and treatment menu. Clients choose their preferred therapist and see their live availability when booking.

Use case 3

Repeat client recurring appointment management

Loyal clients claim a regular slot (e.g. every 4 weeks for a facial). The system populates their next appointment automatically when the current one is completed.

Use case 4

Handling last-minute availability

Cancelled slots reopen immediately on the booking portal. Send a broadcast to your WhatsApp client list and fill the gap before the day is out.
