  3. Confirmed in seconds

    Most bookings are accepted the moment you tap. Your phone buzzes, the slot is yours, and the whole thing took under a minute.

From a trim to a training session.

Is the app free?

Yes. The app is free to download, and you can browse without an account. You pay for the appointment itself, either in the app or at the business.

How do I pay?

If a business takes card payment, you pay in the app when you book, and your card details are handled by Stripe. Otherwise you pay at the business.

How do I cancel a booking?

Open the Bookings tab and choose the booking. Up to 24 hours before the appointment it cancels straight away. Closer than that, the app sends the business a cancellation request, and the business answers it.

How do I ask for a refund?

For a visit you paid for in the app, open the booking after the appointment and ask for a refund. You can ask for up to 7 days. The business or our team answers in the app.

How do I list my business?
