Besmi vs Fresha
Your clients, your revenue —
no hidden commissions
The all-in-one booking platform built for beauty pros — AI receptionist, aftercare cards, intake forms, and Tap to Pay, all from day one.
Why pros leave Fresha
20% commission on new clients — even if they didn't come through Fresha's marketplace
If you don't import existing clients first, your regulars get charged as "new"
Monthly costs unpredictable — some users report surprise $70+/month bills
Changed pricing model from genuinely free to subscription-based, breaking trust
What Besmi gives you
Zero commission on any client — new or existing, always 0%
No marketplace trap: your booking page, your clients, your revenue
AI receptionist turns texts into bookings — Fresha has no AI
Predictable, transparent pricing — no surprise bills or hidden fees

What Fresha can't do
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.
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.
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.
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.
