The switch promise
Move over without losing what matters.
Keep Youzse running while Setora is set up. Bring across the supported records Youzse provides and change your public booking links only after you have tested the new flow.
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 Youzse.
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.
Customer records
Names, contact details, notes and consent fields can be reviewed when they are present in the export.
Services
Bring across service names, prices and durations from a supported CSV or Excel file, then check the mapping.
Bookings
Past and upcoming appointments can be imported when the export contains the fields Setora needs.
Team details
Use the exported staff details to rebuild your team and confirm who provides each service.
Opening hours
Set each location's opening hours and staff working patterns, then compare them with your current diary.
Notes and consent
Client notes, preferences and marketing consent can move when the export includes clear fields for them.
The switch, step by step
Four steps off Youzse.
Keep taking bookings on Youzse the whole time. You only switch your link once everything is in place and tested.
Request your Youzse export
Download the customer, appointment and other records Youzse makes available. Keep the account active until the move is checked.
Set up Setora
Add each location, your services, team and opening hours. Build the Booking Page while Youzse stays live.
Import and test
Upload supported files, review the mapping and run test bookings. Compare customer records and future appointments.
Switch your links
When you are happy, update Google, Instagram, WhatsApp and your website. Publish your Shop Website at the same time if you use one.

Youzse vs Setora
A broad platform or a focused booking system?
Both cover online booking, calendars, customer records, deposits, reminders, waitlists, walk-ins and owner access on mobile. The useful differences are plan structure, payment fees and the tools around the diary.

How we compared: Figures use publicly available UK pricing and product information. Prices and features checked 8 September 2026. Youzse describes Essentials for solo operators, Growth for growing teams and Scale for established businesses, but its public pricing page does not state exact size thresholds. Do not assume a multi-staff salon qualifies for £19. Youzse says VAT is not added to its displayed prices. Setora is £39/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.

Payment-cost example
The card fee can matter more than the headline plan.
Youzse publishes 2.5% + 35p per card transaction. Setora adds no payment markup, so the applicable Stripe rate applies. Here is one clearly labelled standard-UK-card illustration.
| Monthly payments | Card volume | Youzse at 2.5% + 35p | Stripe at 1.5% + 20p | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 100 | £2,000 | £85 | £50 | £35 |
| 200 | £4,000 | £170 | £100 | £70 |
| 400 | £8,000 | £340 | £200 | £140 |
Assumptions: £20 average payment, standard UK cards, Stripe's published 1.5% + 20p rate and every payment processed online. Subscriptions, VAT, refunds, disputes and non-standard cards are excluded.
This is an illustration, not a guaranteed rate. Your actual Stripe pricing depends on card type and account terms. Use your own payment mix before making a decision.

Before you switch
The questions owners ask.
The practical stuff about moving off Youzse. Still unsure? Start the free trial, no card needed.
Is Setora cheaper than Youzse?
It depends on the Youzse plan that applies, your locations and your card volume. Youzse starts at £19/month and Setora is £39/month per location before VAT where applicable. Youzse publishes 2.5% + 35p per card transaction. Setora adds no payment markup, so the applicable Stripe rate applies. Compare subscription and processing together.
Will I lose client or booking data?
Youzse says customers, appointments and invoices can be exported. Setora can import supported CSV or Excel records for customers, services and bookings, with a mapping review before you switch links. The exact result depends on the fields in your export, so export and check everything before cancelling.
Does Setora have iPhone and Android apps?
Yes. Setora has iOS and Android apps for owners and staff. Customers continue to use the web-based Booking Page, so they do not need to download an app to book.
What Youzse features does Setora not currently replace?
Setora does not currently offer native WhatsApp messaging, quotes, invoices, gift cards, loyalty, memberships, classes, VAT returns, Tap to Pay, a payment terminal or a customer marketplace. If those are essential, Youzse may be the better fit.
Does Setora bring in customers through a marketplace?
No. Setora is built for direct bookings from your Google profile, social channels, Shop Website and existing customer base. If marketplace discovery is important to you, Youzse has an advantage.
Can I keep my existing card machine?
Yes. Setora does not require its own terminal hardware. Keep your existing card machine and use Setora's Stripe payment tools only where they suit your business.
Can Setora help with the move?
Yes. Use the reviewed CSV or Excel import for supported records, and ask Setora for hands-on help checking the mapping and your Booking Page before you change public links.
Switch from Youzse
Ready to move from Youzse?
Request your Youzse export, bring across the supported records, test your Setora Booking Page and switch your public links only when you are ready. Start without a card, then pay £39/month per location before VAT where applicable if you stay. SMS credits and Stripe processing are separate when used.
