What is WaveBookings?

A flat-fee booking calendar for UK salons, trades and clinics. Customers book on your site, not a rented marketplace.

Updated 2026-07-16

WaveBookings is a calm booking calendar for UK small businesses. Customers book on your own site or widget. You keep the diary, the reminders and the relationship. There is no per-booking commission.

What it is for

  • Salons, barbers, clinics, tutors and trades who want a proper diary without marketplace rent
  • Staff hours, time off and resource capacity so double-bookings stay blocked
  • Email confirmations and timed reminders that cut no-shows
  • An optional review loop with WaveReviews when an appointment is done

How it differs from marketplace apps

Marketplace booking apps often take a cut of every new client. WaveBookings is a flat monthly fee on the site you own. Your customers never leave for a rented storefront.

Q Does it work with WaveSites?

Yes. Embed the booking widget on your WaveSite, or share a branded booking link. Bookings are a WaveSites feature, not a separate storefront.

Q Can I take deposits?

Deposit handling is being rolled out carefully. Ask us about your trade and we will confirm what is live on your account.

Q Where are prices?

Start at /pricing for Flow, Rise and Surge tiers. Contact us at /contact?service=WaveBookings if you want a walkthrough first.
