The switch promise

Move over without losing what matters.

Three things every owner worries about before they switch. Here is exactly what happens to each one.

Keep your customer list

Import the customer records your current provider gives you, then keep them exportable from Setora later.

Keep your bookings

Keep the old diary live while Setora is set up and tested. Import future bookings when the export is clean enough.

Keep your customers' trust

The same familiar booking experience, just a new link. No awkward re-registration for your regulars.

What comes across

What you can bring across from Vagaro.

Use the files your current provider gives you to rebuild Setora without starting from a blank diary. Here is what usually moves and stays yours.

Services & prices

Your full service menu with durations and prices, mapped onto Setora ready to book.

Staff & rotas

Every team member with their working hours and the services they offer.

Opening hours

Location opening times and breaks, so the diary reflects how you actually work.

Customer records

Names, contact details, consent and any visit history included in your export, so the useful customer detail is not left behind.

Booking history

Past and upcoming appointments can be imported when your current platform includes them in the export.

Notes & preferences

Client notes and preferences can move with the record when they are included in your export.

The switch, step by step

Four steps off Vagaro.

Keep taking bookings on Vagaro the whole time. You only switch your link once everything is in place and tested.

1

Export from Vagaro

Download what Vagaro makes available, or request your portable data before you cancel. We help you work out what can be imported.

2

Set up Setora

Map your services, team and opening hours onto Setora, so you are not rebuilding the menu by hand.

3

Import and test

Bring in the files you have, then run a test booking to check services, staff, customers and opening hours look right.

4

Switch your link

When you are happy, point your booking link at Setora from Google, Instagram, WhatsApp or your site.

A note on this comparison: Full disclosure: we built Setora, so this comparison has a point of view. This example uses a three-chair Vagaro setup with common add-ons. Some shops will use fewer add-ons, and currency or package changes can move the number. Last reviewed July 2026. Setora is £39/month per location. 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.

Before you switch

The questions owners ask.

The practical stuff about moving off Vagaro. Still unsure? Start the free trial, no card needed.

Will I lose my client data when I switch?

Vagaro offers customer list exports in standard formats for business owners. Setora helps you import the useful records into your new setup.

Is it really no commission? What's the catch?

£39/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.

What about Vagaro add-on costs?

Vagaro has a wide feature set and some capabilities may sit behind add-ons. Setora keeps the platform price simple, with SMS credits and card processing separate only when used.

Do clients need to create a profile to book?

Setora's Booking Page is focused on picking a service, staff member, date and time. Customers can book directly without being pushed into a third-party marketplace profile first.

What if I want to leave Setora?

Cancel any time. There are no exit fees, no lock-in contracts, and your customers, bookings and reports stay exportable.

Is Setora stable for busy shops and salons?

Setora is built for shops and salons that need simple, fast booking routines during busy hours. The switch template lets you test your Booking Page before changing public links.
