How we compared: This example uses four weeks per month, 100 bookings a week at a £20 average, 70% paid by card in person with Tap to Pay, and 20 first marketplace visits at £20. It includes Fresha payment processing, while the Setora figure is its platform price with no VAT currently added and excludes payment processing and SMS. Compare equivalent payment usage and account for whether your business can reclaim VAT before deciding. Setora is £59/month per location, before VAT where applicable. SMS credits and card processing are separate if you use them. Competitor prices, add-ons, taxes, marketplace fees and exchange rates can change, so check the current provider pricing before you decide.

Data and timing
Your data stays yours.
Request the records Fresha provides before cancelling. Import the supported fields, review them and keep the old account live until your Setora setup has been tested.
Export before cancelling. Ask for the records you need while your current account is still active.
Check before changing links. Review imported records and test the booking flow first.
Keep a secure copy. Store the original export safely while you check the move.
Keep an exit route. People with permission can export customer records and available reports from Setora.
Before you decide
Check the details for your business.
Before you switch
The practical questions.
What to check before moving away from Fresha.
Will I lose my client data when I switch?
You should not lose your client list if you export it before cancelling. Under GDPR, you have rights over your data, and Fresha documents a client-list export flow. Setora gives you a clear migration path and helps you import the records you receive.
Is it really no commission? What's the catch?
£59/month per location is how Setora makes money. We do not take a cut of your bookings, card payments or walk-ins. SMS credits and card processing are separate if you use them.
How long does it take to switch from Fresha?
Add services and staff, import the supported files you receive, test a booking, then move your public links when you are ready.
What if I want to leave Setora?
Cancel any time. There are no exit fees or fixed-term contracts. You can export the customer list and download available reports when needed.
Fresha sends me new clients, won't I lose that if I switch?
Your existing clients already know your shop. Setora is best for owners who want more direct bookings, clearer costs and ownership of the client relationship. If a marketplace is your main source of new clients, include that in your decision.
What are the best Fresha alternatives in the UK?
Booksy, Treatwell, Square Appointments and Setora all serve UK barbershops and salons. Compare commission, data ownership, staff pricing and the booking experience. Setora is built around flat pricing and direct bookings.
