What Booksy can't do

01

24/7 SMS Receptionist

Your clients text, your AI answers. It books appointments, reschedules, answers questions about services and pricing — even at 2am. You wake up to a full calendar.

02

Digital Aftercare Cards

Send beautiful aftercare instructions to every client after their appointment. Customizable per service — lash aftercare, brow aftercare, facial aftercare. They remember you as the pro who actually cared.

03

Built-in Intake Forms

Collect allergies, medical history, and consent signatures before appointments. Includes a minor consent form for clients under 18 with parent/guardian authorization. Auto-matches to client profiles.

04

Tap to Pay

Your phone becomes a card reader. Accept contactless payments with Apple Pay, Google Pay, or any NFC card. No dongle, no hardware, no extra cost. Just tap and get paid.
