From an enquiry to a held date
Most jobs start with a price, not a slot. Soopaspace lets a customer send an enquiry, you reply with a tidy quote, and when they accept, a card deposit holds the date, so a yes is a booking rather than a maybe.
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 quote that turns into a booking
A customer sends an enquiry with what they need. You send back a clear quote with your price, and when they accept, a deposit by card holds the date and the job drops into your diary. No chasing a verbal yes that quietly goes cold.
- Customers enquire with the job, not a time
- You reply with a tidy, priced quote
- A card deposit on the quote holds the date
- The accepted job lands in your diary
The money, sorted before you start
Because the deposit is taken when they accept, the date is paid toward before you pick up a tool, and the rest can be invoiced when the work is done. A job that is agreed is a job that is held, not a Saturday you kept free for someone who drifted off.
- A deposit in before the work starts
- The balance invoiced when the job is done
- A held date, not a tentative pencil mark
- No Saturday lost to a job that goes quiet

Common questions
- How does a customer get a price before booking?
- They send an enquiry describing the job, and you reply with a quote. When they accept, a deposit by card can be taken to hold the date, so the enquiry becomes a booked job.
- Can I take a deposit on a quote?
- Yes. A quote can ask for a card deposit, and when the customer accepts and pays it, the date is held and the money is yours, with the balance settled when the work is finished.
