Industries

Booking software, by the kind of business you run

TimeToBook is one simple booking system, but a barbershop and a lash studio do not run the same day. These pages walk through what each industry actually needs, how we handle it, and where we fall short.

The same product on every page

There is no "hair edition" or "spa edition". Every business gets the same thing: a public booking page, a calendar, email and SMS reminders, client records, staff hours, and the mobile app. What changes between industries is how you set up your services (durations, processing time, buffers, rebook intervals) and which features end up mattering most.

Pricing is the same everywhere too. One bookable person is free, each additional staff member is £10 a month, and there is no marketplace commission. The only per-transaction fee is on payments taken through TimeToBook, and it includes card processing.
