A headline price cannot tell you whether a system fits your salon. Record these answers for your current provider and Elite Booker before changing your booking link.
Price the same working month
Count bookable staff, direct and marketplace bookings, card transactions and reminder messages. Ask for a written total separating subscription, tax, payment charges, acquisition fees and optional extras.
Try your most demanding appointment
Choose a service with the staff, duration and payment arrangement you actually need. Look at the customer journey and the diary entry it creates: processing time, bundles and deposits work differently from one platform to the next.
Plan what will move
List client contact records, future appointments, paid deposits, gift balances and consent history separately. Elite Booker has no automatic import, so we set up your services, prices and availability with you and you decide how to bring clients across.
Choose a safe changeover point
Reconcile upcoming bookings and money already paid before replacing website or social booking links. Assign someone to check both diaries during the transition and tell clients how to contact you.
