A deposit holds the appointment
A missed appointment is a slot you cannot fill at short notice. Soopaspace takes a deposit by card the moment a client books, so the people who book are the people who turn up.
Free to start with your booking page, bookings and clients. Everything else is one paid plan: £9.99/month billed yearly, or £12.99 monthly.

A deposit on any treatment
Set a fixed deposit on each treatment you offer, taken by card as the client books, with the balance paid on the day. A longer or more popular appointment can ask for more, so the slots you most want protected are held firmest.
- A deposit set per treatment
- Taken by card at the moment of booking
- The balance paid on the day
- More for the slots you most want protected
The rest paid the way you work
The deposit comes off the total, so the client only owes the balance. Settle it in person, by bank transfer, or by card where you offer it, whatever suits you both.
- The deposit comes off the total
- Balance in person, by transfer or by card
- Card offered only where you switch it on

Common questions
- How much deposit can I ask for?
- You set it per treatment, as a fixed amount, taken by card when the client books. You can ask for more on a long or in-demand appointment and nothing on others.
- What if a client reschedules?
- As long as they move the appointment within the notice period you set, the deposit carries over to the new time rather than being lost.
