Getting started

You can be taking real bookings the same day you sign up — there’s no setup fee and nothing to install. Here’s the whole first run, start to finish.

Your first day, step by step

  1. Create your account. Sign up with your email and you’re in — no software to download, no onboarding call to sit through. Most people are set up and sharing a link inside an hour.
  2. Tell us what kind of business you run. Pick one of five — training, classes & workshops, tours & activities, appointments, or food & drink. This quietly renames the whole app to match your trade and switches on the right tools, so you only ever see what’s relevant to you. More in Bookings & sessions.
  3. Choose a look. Your public page comes in three finished designs — Ledger, Shopfront and Studio. You’re picking between rooms we’ve already decorated, so it can’t come out looking wrong. See Your page & hosted websites.
  4. Make it yours. Add your colour, a logo, a font pairing, a voice and a photo. Every colour auto-adjusts to stay readable, and the page re-dresses instantly as you choose — there’s no way to break it.
  5. Connect Stripe. Customers pay straight into your own Stripe account — we never hold your money and take no booking fee. Everything runs in test mode until you switch your account to live, so you can have a practice run first.
  6. Add the first thing people can book. Create your first Course, Class, Service — whatever your trade calls it — with a name, a price and a short description, then a date and time if it has one. Customers book straight into it.
  7. Share your booking link. That’s it — you’re live. Drop the link in your bio, your emails or a message to a customer. The page works on a phone.

Nothing’s charged while you find your feet. Every plan comes with a 1-month free trial, no card needed — you start it from your dashboard once you’re set up — and payments stay in Stripe’s test mode until you’re ready to go live. See Pricing & plans.

Good to know

  • You can change anything later. Your look, colour, voice, prices and details all live in Settings — nothing you pick on day one is permanent.
  • Lily can help as you go. The assistant inside your account answers “how do I…” questions and can even draft a few changes for you to confirm. Meet her in Lily, the assistant.
  • The words follow your trade. A trainer sees Courses and Sessions; a salon sees Services and Appointments; a café shows a Menu of Dishes. It’s the same tool underneath, just wearing your trade’s language.
