Salon booking software with 0% commission
All features included
$2/mo
+ $1 per additional staff seat · no tiers, no add-ons
- 0% commission on every booking — forever
- No booking fees for your clients
- Free migration from your current software
Your own branded booking page, email + push reminders, client records and analytics — built only for salons, barbershops and nail studios. Not a marketplace: clients book you, not the salon next door.
Why salon owners are leaving the booking marketplaces
The apps that promise to fill your chair often charge you for your own regulars — and keep the client list.
Commission on your own clients
Marketplaces charge up to 20% when a "new" client books — even one who found you on Instagram. On Fresha, the marketplace fee applies to every first booking.
Pricing that grows per staff member
At $9–30 per bookable calendar, adding your third chair can double the bill before it earns a cent.
A client base you can't take with you
On a marketplace, the client account belongs to the platform. Leave, and years of history and contacts stay behind.
Own your clients. Own your revenue.
Boona gives you a private booking page — not a profile in a marketplace catalog next to your competitors.
One link that belongs to you: put it in your Instagram bio, on your Google profile and your website. Clients see your brand, your services, your prices — and nothing else.
Your own booking link
One private link for Instagram, Google and your website. No ads, no "similar salons nearby".
An exportable client base
Every client, visit, note and preference is yours. Export any time — no lock-in, ever.
Discreet by design
Roles decide who sees client phone numbers — staff see what their work needs.
0% commission, no client fees
A flat subscription is all you ever pay. Your clients never pay a booking fee.
On a marketplace
- Your profile sits in a catalog next to competitors
- Commission on "new" clients — up to 20%

- An algorithm decides who gets seen
On your Boona page
- Only your salon, under your brand
- 0% commission on every booking
- Your client list — exportable any time
- Your link works anywhere you share it

Every visit, note and preference on file

Fewer no-shows — on autopilot

Last-hour fill
A gap opens tonight? Boona discounts it on your booking page automatically until someone takes it.
- You set the discount and the time window
- The journal keeps full price one click away
Waiting list
Fully booked? Clients join the waitlist and get a one-tap claim email the moment a slot frees up.
- Matching runs automatically on every schedule change
- First to claim gets the slot — no phone tag
Return reminders
Boona learns each client's visit rhythm and emails them just before they're due back.
- Timing learned per client, not one-size-fits-all
- One reminder per lapse — never spam
All included in every subscription — no add-ons, no extra fees.

Why salons switch to Boona
From the owners who made the move
Three chairs cost us $4 a month — my old software charged more than that for every day it ran. Same bookings, same reminders.
Rachel B.
Owner, nail studio
Manchester, UK
We moved the whole client base over in one afternoon — the import was free, and nobody lost their visit history.
Marta K.
Barbershop owner
Berlin, Germany
The booking link in our Instagram bio quietly replaced the marketplace. Clients book us directly now, and no one takes a cut.
