Booksy charges a fixed monthly subscription. Quiet month, busy month — the fee is the same. You pay whether your bookings are up or down.
Every client acquired through Booksy costs you the monthly platform fee. If they do not rebook, you have paid for a one-time visitor.
Booksy often incentivises annual subscriptions. Once committed, switching is costly — even if the platform is not delivering results.
Booksy bundles many features into its subscription. Sydney salon owners often pay for a full suite when they only need a fraction of the functionality.
