WAppoint vs Square Appointments

Square Appointments is part of a much wider payments and point-of-sale ecosystem. WAppoint is a focused UK booking tool: booking page, QR code booking, reminders, team scheduling and customer records, without needing to buy into a hardware or payments stack.

Everything you need to fill your diary

Focused on UK appointments

WAppoint is built for UK service businesses — pound pricing, no commission on bookings and SMS top-up packs from £9. Square Appointments sits inside a global commerce platform; check its current UK plans and payments terms before comparing.

Your own booking link

Share one link, embed it on your site or print a QR code — customers book directly with you rather than through a payments ecosystem.

Email and SMS reminders included

WAppoint sends email confirmations and reminders and optional SMS confirmations and reminders, timed per service. Compare which reminder channels are included on the plan you would buy.

Availability rules for service work

Buffer time, minimum notice, maximum advance booking windows, time off and per-staff availability are enforced on every booking — from your link, your website or a QR code.

No hardware or payments stack required

WAppoint runs in the browser and works with the systems you already use. You can start on the free plan without taking a card machine or opening a payments account.

Customer records as standard

Every booking builds a client profile with history and notes, so your team knows who is coming and what they booked before.
