Chairs, color, the front desk
The desk already knows the menu. The internet should too.
Bring the Booksy catalog over. Keep deposits on the rails you already use. Let the public page look like the shop, not a marketplace listing.
Salons, barbershops, and color studios that want their own booking page — with or without a Booksy past.
Ask once. Don't wait on a DM.

What they struggle with
Two menus, two truths
Booksy has last month’s prices. The printed menu has this week’s. Instagram has a third.
Marketplace tax
You pay to be found next to competitors, then pay again to get paid. Regulars did not come from the marketplace.
Why not the usual tools
Booksy
Fine as a starting catalog. Poor as the only front door if you want your own URL, your own Venmo, and your own reviews in one place.
Square
Strong if you already run their POS. Awkward if the shop still takes a deposit on Cash App for color.
What it costs to start
Rivvo Starter includes the menu, the book, and service / order reminders. You keep Zelle. You do not pay a processor to take a $45 order.
| Platform | To start | What that means |
|---|---|---|
| Rivvo Starter | $9.99/mo | 14-day trial. Menu, booking, 100 reminder emails/mo, SMS at $0.03. Zelle / Venmo / Cash App stay yours — no card cut. |
| Rivvo Base | $29/mo | Team seat, shared staff calendars, daily reviews, 50 SMS/mo. Still no processor required. |
| Booksy | $29.99/mo + $20/staff | No free-forever plan. 14-day trial. Deposits go through Booksy Payments (~2.5%+). |
| Square Appointments | $0/mo + 3.3% + 30¢ online | Free only if they take the card. On a $45 tray that’s about $1.80. Plus plan is $29–$49/location. |
| Calendly | Free (1 event type) or ~$12/seat | A calendar, not a menu. No sold-out item, no cashtag, no pickup vs delivery. |

What Rivvo does instead
Import the Booksy profile
Services and categories come across so you are not retyping the menu the week you leave.
Reviews you already earned
Google, Yelp, and Booksy pull into one list. The booking page does not start from zero stars.
