Hold the date with a deposit

A date someone has paid toward is a date they keep. Soopaspace takes a deposit by card when a job is booked, holds the slot, and leaves the rest to be settled when the work is done, so your week is not built on maybes.

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 that holds the slot

Set a deposit on the services you book in, taken by card the moment a customer books, with the balance paid on completion. The slot is held and paid toward, so a date in your diary is one someone has committed to, not just pencilled in.

  • A deposit by card when the job is booked
  • The balance settled when the work is done
  • Set per service, at the amount you choose
  • A held date, committed to and paid toward

Fewer gaps, less chasing

A deposit gives a customer a reason to turn up and gives you something to hold the date with. A job that falls through has at least covered the slot, and the day is far less likely to vanish from your week at the last minute.

  • A reason for the customer to turn up
  • The slot covered if a job falls through
  • Fewer last-minute gaps in the week
  • Less chasing people who go quiet

Common questions

When is the deposit taken?
The deposit is taken by card at the moment the customer books, and it holds the slot. The rest is settled when the work is finished, your usual way.
Can I set a different deposit on different jobs?
Yes. A deposit is set per service at the amount you choose, so a big job can carry a larger deposit while a small one carries little or none.
