Australian lineOnline booking system
An online booking system that only offers times that really work.
Clients see live availability for each service and staff member, book in under a minute and get a reminder before they come. You get a calendar that never double-books.
How an online booking system works
An online booking system replaces the phone call. Your business gets a booking page with its services, prices and staff; clients choose what they want and a time that suits them; the booking lands in your calendar and both sides get a confirmation. Before the visit, a reminder goes out by SMS or email.
The difference between booking systems is in the details. Ukilu checks each staff member's roster, breaks and days off, adds buffer time after services, supports processing time and fixed on-the-hour slots, and can hold online bookings for your approval before the confirmation is sent. Deposits are paid into your own Stripe account.
Ukilu is made for appointment businesses with a front desk — nail salons, head spas, lash and brow studios, beauty and massage — so the same app also handles check-in, payment on your EFTPOS terminal, loyalty and marketing.
