No 12-month contract. No transaction fees. No fine print.

Booksy charges a monthly subscription plus transaction fees on every payment processed through Booksy Pay — and typically requires a 12-month contract. yAppointment is €10/month, no contract, no transaction fees, 0% commission.

You signed up for Booksy at a monthly rate that seemed reasonable. Then you noticed the transaction fees on every payment processed through Booksy Pay. Then you tried to cancel — and discovered you're locked in for 12 months. The exit clause is buried in terms you never read. Your 'affordable' booking software now costs more than you expected, and you can't leave without paying a penalty.

Booksy's app puts your business in a marketplace — alongside every other barber, stylist, and therapist in your area. Your clients find you there, but they also find your competitors. One scroll down and they're booking someone else. Your marketing dollars drive traffic to a platform that serves everyone equally, not just you.
