Barbershops

Booking software built for barbershops

Your chairs, your barbers, your hours. Clients pick a barber, grab a real opening, and get the confirmation in their inbox.

Free to start · No setup fees · Live in minutes

What you keep

One flat monthly price

Per business. No per-staff seats, no setup fee.

No marketplace in the middle

No commission for sending you clients. No competitor ads on your page.

Your clients, your link

Your own booking address. Your client list never feeds a marketplace.

Card payments carry a platform fee by plan (5% on Free, 2.9% on Solo and Team, 1.9% on Business) plus Stripe processing. Appointments paid in person carry none.

BookingMaven is barbershop booking software with a public booking page for your shop. Clients choose a barber, a service, and an open time, then book as a guest with a name and an email. Every booking reserves that barber's slot, so a taken chair never shows as open. You confirm from the dashboard, and the client gets confirmation and reminder emails. Start free with one chair, then move to Team when you add barbers.

How booking works for barbershops

  1. 1

    Pick a barber

    Clients see your team with photos and specialties. They search by name or specialty and tap a card.

  2. 2

    Pick a service

    Your menu with durations and prices. A fade blocks 30 minutes, a cut and beard blocks 45, whatever you set.

  3. 3

    Pick a time

    Only real openings show. The calendar reads your hours, blocked time, and every booking already on that barber's book.

  4. 4

    Confirm

    Name and email, optional phone, done. Clients choose Pay in Person and can create an account to manage bookings. You confirm from the dashboard and the email goes out.

Built for barbershops

Real-time availability

Every booking goes through a slot ledger that checks the barber, the time, and the service length before it saves. Two clients cannot take the same chair at the same time.

Per-barber profiles and calendars

Each barber gets a profile with a photo, title, bio, and specialties, and a calendar of their own bookings. Clients filter by specialty and book the barber they want.

Hours, blocked time, and buffers

Set weekly hours and closed days. Block time off from the calendar. Add a buffer between bookings so back-to-back cuts get breathing room.

Email confirmations and reminders

Clients get a booking-received email with a Google Calendar link and directions, a confirmation when you accept, and reminders 24 hours and 1 hour before. On every plan.

A storefront and a QR code

Your page at bookingmaven.com/business/your-shop shows a cover photo, logo, brand color, services, team, reviews, and hours, plus a gallery tab on Solo and up. Download a Scan-to-book QR code for the counter or the window.

Card, cash, or a payment link

Connect Stripe and use the POS tab to charge a card, record cash, or copy a payment link for a walk-in or a finished booking.

Common questions

Can clients book a specific barber?

Yes. Every barber has a profile and their own calendar. Clients tap the barber they want, or you share a direct link that preselects that barber.

Do clients need an account?

No. Clients book as guests with a name and an email; phone is optional. They can create an account at checkout to see their bookings, rebook in one tap, and leave reviews.

How do clients pay?

Clients choose Pay in Person at booking. Connect Stripe in Settings, then use the POS tab to charge a card, record cash, or copy a payment link. Card payments carry a platform fee of 5% on Free, 2.9% on Solo and Team, and 1.9% on Business, plus Stripe processing.

What about walk-in days?

Block time from the calendar on the days you keep for walk-ins, or shorten your online hours. Ring up walk-in sales in the POS tab.

How do reminders work?

By email, 24 hours and 1 hour before every confirmed appointment. The confirmation email also has a Google Calendar link and directions.

Can I put booking on my own website or Instagram?

Yes. Paste the embed snippet from the Customize tab into your site, or put your booking link in your bio. The embed runs the same booking flow inside your page.

Can a client cancel?

Yes. The confirmation email carries a manage link. Clients can cancel from it up to 24 hours before the appointment. Inside 24 hours they need to contact you.

How many bookings can I take on the free plan?

Five a month, with one barber and five services. Solo removes the booking limit. Team adds up to five barbers. Business removes the staff and service limits.
