Built for appointment-only businesses

Nail salons and other appointment-first businesses get their own signup path, a tuned day-one setup, and settings without class-studio noise.

Booking Bible now treats appointment-only businesses as first-class. Nail
salons and massage clinics appear in the signup wizard's venue types, and a
new nail salon starts with the right setup on day one: appointment booking,
walk-in queue, point of sale, treatment notes and technician portfolios on,
class features off, plus a realistic starter menu of services and stations
in your own language — appointments, technicians, stations and packages
instead of classes, instructors and rooms.

If your venue runs appointments only, your Settings home no longer shows
class booking rules, class types, course types or streaming — the
Appointment settings card covers your rules instead. Class and hybrid
venues see no change.

Solo professionals on the Free plan get a real public booking page, so
clients can book you online from day one. The Free plan covers one
provider, five services and twenty-five appointments per week — when you
outgrow it, the new appointment tier is ready.

Working with freelance technicians got simpler too: a collaboration can now
carry one base appointment rate (for example a percentage of everything
they deliver) instead of a rate per service, dated rate periods apply to
appointments exactly as they do to classes, and your check-in page shows
appointments assigned to you at partner venues. Appointment reminder emails
also stopped repeating — each reminder now sends exactly once, and venues
that turned reminders off are respected.

You choose when clients are notified

Staff actions on a client account no longer email automatically — every action asks which channels to use, and nothing sends unless you choose.
