Payments and reminders, connected to the booking

Collect the right amount without holding card details.

Deposits and full payment

Each business connects its own Stripe account. Customers pay a deposit or the full price during booking, and that money goes to the business, not OpenSlot. OpenSlot never stores card numbers.

Useful notifications

Confirmations, reminders and cancellation messages stay distinct, traceable and easy to understand.

Rules that protect your time

Each service has its own duration, price, location and buffers before and after the appointment. Set a minimum notice period so nobody books the next half hour, and a maximum number of days ahead so the diary does not fill months in advance.

Add your own booking terms, such as cancellation, lateness and refund policies. Customers see and accept them before the booking is confirmed, and they can cancel through their private link only until the notice period you choose.

Teams of up to five

On the Team plan, each staff member has their own working hours, breaks and time off. Customers see which team member each available time is with, so regulars can book with the person they prefer.

Team permissions control who can manage settings and billing, and reports show bookings and payments across the business. See pricing for what each plan includes.

Built for your kind of business

Questions, answered

Common questions

Anything else you need to know before you start?

Ask us directly

Do customers need an account to book?

No. Customers choose a service and time, then enter their name, email and phone number. They get a confirmation email with a private link to view or cancel the booking.

Can customers cancel their own bookings?

Yes, through their private booking link, until the cancellation notice period you set (for example 24 or 48 hours). After that the link asks them to contact you.

Can I take deposits or full payment?

Yes, on Solo and Team. Connect your own Stripe account and choose a deposit or full payment for each service. OpenSlot takes no commission.

Does OpenSlot send reminders?

Yes. Automatic email reminders go out before each appointment at the time you choose. Reminders are included on Solo and Team.

Can I manage a team?

Yes. Team supports up to five staff, each with their own working hours, time off and services, plus team permissions and reports.

Is there a mobile app?

Yes. There is an installable Android app, and on iPhone you can add OpenSlot to your home screen from Safari.
