Questions owners actually ask
- Do I need a card to start?
- No. The 14-day trial takes an email and your shop’s name. Nothing else. We’re in early access: the trial starts when your shop’s spot opens.
- What happens if I cancel?
- You pay until the end of your period and that’s it. Export your client list any time. Your data is yours.
- What if I run out of messages?
- Confirmations inside WhatsApp’s free 24-hour window keep working. For reminders beyond your allowance you add a message pack yourself. We never silently charge you.
- Do prices include VAT?
- Prices exclude VAT.
- Any hidden fees?
- No. Plan price, extra professionals, message packs if you want them, and card costs when you take deposits. That list is complete.
- Is there a contract?
- Month to month, or annual with two months free. Cancel any time and stay until your period ends.
Your lane to a fresh cut.
