A deposit holds the slot
A treatment ties up a slot and uses products you buy in, so a booking that falls through costs you twice. Soopaspace takes a card deposit when the job is booked, so the slot is paid toward before you set off.
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 when the treatment is booked
Set a deposit on a job, taken by card when the customer books, with the balance due on completion. A full treatment plan or a bigger callout that holds a slot and needs products can carry a bigger deposit, so you are not out of pocket before you start.
- A card deposit when the treatment is booked
- Bigger jobs can hold a bigger deposit
- Covers the products you buy in
- The balance paid on completion
The rest settled your way
The deposit comes off the total, so the customer owes only the balance when the work is done. Settle it by card from an invoice, by transfer, or in cash, whichever suits the household or the business you are working for.
- The deposit comes off the total
- Balance by card, transfer or cash
- The customer sees exactly what is left
- A reminder before the visit itself

Common questions
- Can I take a deposit to cover materials?
- Yes. You set the deposit per job, so a treatment that needs products bought in can carry a larger deposit, taken by card when the customer books.
- What if the customer cancels?
- The deposit is taken at booking and recorded against the job, so a held slot and products bought in are paid toward rather than lost on trust. Your own terms decide what happens to it.
