Booking Control

Deposits and rescheduling - fewer no-shows, zero hassle

Deposits lock in serious bookings. Rescheduling lets clients move instead of cancel. Together, they keep your appointments full and your revenue predictable.

  • Set deposit amounts per service or apply a global policy
  • Collect deposits at booking checkout via Stripe
  • Reduce no-shows by requiring commitment upfront
  • Move bookings to a different time, date, or barber without cancelling
  • Availability rules enforced automatically - no double-booking risk
  • Clients receive an updated confirmation when anything changes

Calendar

Barbershop calendar - your schedule at a glance

The calendar is where your day lives. Staff columns on desktop, a clean agenda on mobile. Switch between day, 3-day, week, and month views to see exactly what you need. Service categories are colour-coded, a red line tracks the current time, and clicking any empty slot starts a new booking instantly.

  • Day, 3-day, week, and month views - switch with one tap
  • Staff columns show every barber's schedule side by side
  • Mobile agenda view - a scrollable list optimised for phones
  • Service-category colour coding so you can read the day at a glance
  • Current-time indicator so you always know where you are in the day
  • Click any empty slot to start a new booking - no extra steps
  • Progressive disclosure - summary first, full detail on tap
  • Smart defaults - the calendar opens to today with sensible hours

Waitlist

Waitlist management - never miss a booking opportunity

When your schedule is full, Setora captures demand automatically. Clients join the waitlist, get notified when a slot opens, and confirm in one tap - no staff intervention required.

  • Clients join the waitlist when their preferred slot is full
  • Automatic notifications via email or SMS when a slot opens
  • Time-limited holds so the next person is notified if no response
  • Configurable minimum notice periods for waitlist alerts
  • Automatic expiry keeps the queue fresh and relevant
  • Seamless conversion from waitlist entry to confirmed booking
