Reasons people switch.
Some pros want their booking page on their own domain, not a shared platform URL.
Owners who want flat pricing they can plan around.
Pros whose business spans more than the beauty niche a tool is built around.
What you get instead.
Bookings happen on your page and your domain — never a directory listing next to other businesses.
You pay a flat plan; payments run through your own Stripe account and your clients stay yours.
Month-to-month with no contract — the features small shops need are in every plan, not paywalled add-ons.
Free import help to move in, and free CSV/JSON export so you can always take your data back out.
GlossGenius may be the better fit if you want a beauty-specific all-in-one with its own card reader and a tightly integrated payments/marketing suite. Dropinly is multi-vertical and Stripe-based, focused on booking, deposits, waitlist, and reminders rather than a beauty-only ecosystem.
Switching questions.
Yes — host your booking page on a domain you control, like book.yourstudio.com.
No. It's multi-vertical — barbers, salons, tattoo, grooming, wellness, and mobile pros all use it.
