What businesses actually switch for

A website, included

Your business page is the booking page. Services, prices, staff, hours, photos, and a map. Clients never need an account.

Three taps to a booking

Service, person, time. Then a name and a mobile number. That's the whole flow.

A waitlist that fills the gap

When someone cancels, Booqspace offers the opening to the next person on the waitlist. They claim it and the slot fills itself.

A walk-in queue

Someone walks in, you add them, and you can drop them on the book when a slot opens.

NoShowNo reminders

Confirmation, 24-hour, and 2-hour reminders in the app. Deposits stay optional, per service.

Numbers you can read

Today's book, the week's revenue, no-show rate, and the money the waitlist actually recovered.

Leave Booksy or Square with a CSV

Export clients and services, then drop the files into Booqspace. We read name and phone for people, and name, minutes, and price for services. Sample files are in the dashboard after you sign in.

Is there a marketplace?

No. Your link is yours. Booqspace never sends your clients to someone else.

Do clients make an account?

No. Name and mobile number. They manage the visit from the reminder page we give them.

What happens after 7 days?

Booking pauses until you subscribe. Cancel anytime after that, and booking stays on until the paid period ends. The shop, clients, and history stay put.

How do reminders get sent?

In the Booqspace app and dashboard. Clients see their reminder on their visit page, with links to confirm, reschedule, or cancel.
