Leading Alternatives to BookingNinja for Your Business

Appoint Me is an online booking system for any business that takes appointments: clinics, physios, therapists, hearing and dental practices, salons, barbers and trades that visit customers at home. Each location gets its own address, opening hours and team, all run from one account. The Diary shows the day on one screen with a column for each person, and every screen updates as soon as a booking moves. Customers book online from a page that shows only your business, never a marketplace of rivals. They can choose a person or the earliest free time, add several services in one visit, join a waitlist, and move or cancel their own booking outside the window you set. Health questions and consent forms are filled in and signed online before the visit. Services can require an earlier visit first, such as a patch test or consultation, and you can approve bookings yourself. Deposits, no-show fees, saved cards, tips and prepaid sessions go straight into your own Stripe account. Appoint Me never takes a cut. Also included: rooms, walk-in queue with a waiting-room screen, recurring bookings, recalls, gift cards, email confirmations, reminders by email, WhatsApp and text, reports, reviews from real customers only, promo codes, loyalty points, tracking links, client list with export, and customer accounts with Google or Apple sign-in. Free apps for Android are on Google Play, and the Apple apps, for iPhone and iPad, are on their way. Available in 23 languages and 17 currencies. Pricing is one flat fee: £50 a month for the first location and £40 for each extra one, with unlimited staff, unlimited bookings and every feature included.
