Treatwell alternatives for salons that want their own bookings

Treatwell is a salon-focused marketplace with booking tools attached, which is useful for discovery but means customers often arrive through someone else’s front door. If you want your own booking link, your own brand and your own customer records, here is what to look for — and why WAppoint qualifies.

Everything you need to fill your diary

Your brand on the booking page

Your logo and colours, your page, your customers. WAppoint puts your branding on the booking experience rather than placing you in a directory next to everyone else.

No commission on bookings

Look for a flat subscription with no cut of each appointment. WAppoint charges a free plan and paid plans from £24 per month, and never takes commission.

A booking link you own

Share one URL on socials, in messages and on your Google profile, embed it in your site, or print it as a QR code at the counter. It works whether or not a marketplace sends anyone your way.

Check: your own booking link

Share one link on socials, in messages and on your Google profile — clients book with you, not through a directory.

Check: SMS reminders to cut no-shows

WAppoint sends email confirmations and optional SMS reminders — allowances of 50 per billing cycle on Starter and 200 on Pro, with top-up packs in pounds: 50 for £9, 100 for £25, 500 for £40 and 1,000 for £65.

Check: stylist diaries and client history

Each stylist needs their own hours and time off, and every client benefits from a record of past visits and notes. WAppoint includes both.

Frequently asked questions

What should I look for in a Treatwell alternative?

Decide whether you want discovery through a marketplace or a booking system you own. If the latter, look for your own booking link and branding, no commission, staff scheduling, SMS reminders and customer records.

Does WAppoint take commission like a marketplace?

No. WAppoint is software, not a marketplace: a flat subscription with a free plan and paid plans from £24 per month, and zero commission on the appointments you take.

Can clients book a specific stylist?

Yes. Each stylist has their own availability and time off, and clients choose who they want when they book online.

Can I move my client list across?

You can start taking bookings immediately with your own link, and bookings then build customer profiles in WAppoint with history and notes, so your records grow from your existing client base.
