Where Bookr wins
The only one built for every industry — the beauty-only and barbers-only tools each serve one trade; Bookr serves 0 verticals from barbers to restaurants and escape rooms. No marketplace commission on new clients, ever. Free to build your page, and ONE all-in fee with card processing included — no separate Stripe bill, ever.
Where we don't
Some tools start cheaper per user (around £7), and a few advertise a free plan for sole traders — but the "free" ones still take a card-processing fee on every booking, and several add a per-booking or marketplace commission on top. We charge a 2.5% Booking Protection Fee the customer sees at checkout — we show it openly rather than hiding it in markup.
Common questions
Simple: your customer pays your price plus a flat 2.5% Booking Protection Fee (same on every plan, non-refundable — how it works), and Bookr takes one all-in fee from the charged total — card processing included, paid out of our fee, never billed to you: 4% Starter, 3.5% Duo, 3% Studio, 2.5% Shop, 2% Chain (50p minimum per booking). On a £100 service on Starter: the customer pays £102.50, Bookr's fee is £4.10, and you receive £98.40. On Chain you'd receive £100.45 — your full service price and more. There is no separate Stripe bill: we pay the card processing out of our cut.
There's a 48-hour booking protection hold after each appointment (so customers can raise a dispute if needed), then Stripe processes the bank transfer — typically 2–5 working days after the hold expires. For new Stripe accounts the transfer window may be longer (up to 7 days) until your account builds history. Once verified, you can switch to a weekly or monthly payout schedule from your Stripe dashboard.
No. Starter is free forever — build your full booking page, set up services, hours, photos and your team without paying a penny. Connect Stripe in the app and your Starter page takes card payments — no subscription needed. Downgrade any time and your bookings, customers and data all stay put.
Yes, any time. Upgrades are prorated to the day, downgrades take effect at the end of your current billing period. You won't lose any of your bookings, customers, or data when changing plans.
You decide. Refunds are issued from your dashboard in one click. Bookr's fee is returned automatically when you refund the customer in full — and the card-processing cost inside it is our problem, not yours. The 2.5% Booking Protection Fee is non-refundable — it covers customer protection regardless of the booking outcome.
Set your own cancellation policy — for example free cancellation up to 24 hours before — and customers agree to it when they book. With card payments taken at booking, a no-show on a non-refundable policy stays paid.
Yes. Like any platform that handles payments, Stripe requires KYC (Know Your Customer) verification before you can receive payouts. Usually takes 5 minutes — passport or driving licence, bank details, business address. We don't see your ID documents; Stripe handles all of that.
Right now Bookr is UK-only and runs in GBP (£). EU and US support is on the roadmap — drop us a line at contact if you'd like to be notified.
Migration help available — contact us at support@mybookr.app and we'll move your data across from any platform during onboarding.
A few things working together. First, your page is dark — invisible to the public — until you complete Stripe identity verification (KYC). That requires a real government ID and bank account, so creating 10 throwaway accounts is basically impossible. Second, we may reclaim long-dormant handles that have never taken a booking or connected Stripe, so good names don't stay locked up by accounts that aren't really using them. Active businesses — especially those on paid plans — are never affected. Good names stay available for businesses actually building something.
Yes. No contracts, no notice period. Cancel from your dashboard and you're done — you keep all your data and can export it as CSV. Your booking page goes offline at the end of the current billing period.
No. Customers can book as guests with just an email — they get a confirmation, a reminder, and a link to their booking. They can optionally create a free account to see all their bookings in one place and reschedule in one click.
All data is stored encrypted in EU data centres (Supabase / AWS Frankfurt). We're UK GDPR compliant. You can export your full data — bookings, customers, services — as CSV from your dashboard at any time. See our Privacy Policy for the full breakdown.
