Bespoke booking software
We build booking applications for independent businesses, shaped around how your business actually runs rather than squeezed into someone else's template. Your brand, your rules, your customers.

What we do
Most booking platforms hand every business the same system, put their name on it, and take a cut of each appointment. It works right up until you need it to do something the platform hasn't thought of.
BookingsAid works the other way round. We sit down with you, learn how your business actually runs, and build a booking application around it: your services, your pricing, your staff, your opening hours, your quirks. It carries your name, not ours. And when you need it to do something new, you ask us. You don't wait for a feature vote.
How we work
How you take bookings today, what eats your time, where you lose money to no-shows and phone tag.
Services, staff, hours, deposits, loyalty and payments, all configured for how you work and styled in your branding.
Hosting, updates and support included. As the business changes, the app changes with it.
What we build
Pick what fits your trade. We build in what you need and leave out what you don't.
Every business we build for joins the BookingsAid community. Your app carries a local advertising space, so independent businesses near you can promote to your customers, and you can promote to theirs.
Every app we build carries a slot for local businesses. It sits where your customers already are, at the moment they are booking.
Promote into other businesses' apps in your area, and they promote into yours. The audience is already local and already spending nearby.
You are paid for the space on your own app. It is money that stays in the area rather than going to a platform taking a cut.
Every business that joins widens the reach for everyone already in it. Nothing to opt into and no extra work for you.

List your business
Tell us how you work today and we'll come back with what we'd build, what it costs, and how long it takes. No obligation, no sales call unless you want one.
Customers book when it suits them, day or night, and get reminded automatically the day before.
Take deposits, set your own cancellation window, and let the app enforce it so you're not chasing people.
Your branding, your customer list, your prices. No commission on bookings and no marketplace in between.
We build it, launch it and look after it. You get a working app, not a project to manage.
Questions
There's a one-off build cost and a monthly fee to host, support and update it. Both depend on how much you need, so we quote per business rather than publishing a price that fits nobody. We never take a commission on your bookings.
Typically a few weeks from first conversation to taking real bookings. Simpler setups are quicker. We build in stages so you see it working early rather than waiting for one big reveal.
Yes. We bring your services, staff and customer list across, and run alongside your existing system until you're confident. Nothing gets switched off before you say so.
You do, completely. It's your client list and you can export it whenever you want. We don't market to your customers and we don't share them with other businesses.
Hosting, updates and support are included in the monthly fee. When you want something changed you ask us directly and we build it, rather than raising a ticket and hoping.
No. It works in any web browser on any phone, and they can save it to their home screen so it behaves like an app if they want to.
