Booking management software for service businesses

One system to manage your business bookings and team schedule

Show availability by service and provider, collect a deposit or payment, and send confirmations and reminders from booking to completion.

  • Customer and staff bookings share one schedule
  • Duration, capacity, and provider configured per service
  • Payments, invoices, and messages tied to the booking

Rekaz fits businesses that need one source for every booking

Fit is not determined by business size. It depends on connecting the appointment to the provider, time, payment, customer, and communication.

01

Bookings arrive through multiple channels

Website, WhatsApp, and phone bookings need to be recorded in one schedule instead of separate copies.

02

Duration and provider vary by service

Availability must account for service duration, eligible providers, and time between appointments.

03

You collect a deposit or partial payment

Payment status, remaining balance, and invoice need to stay connected to the customer and booking.

04

Changes consume team time

Cancellations, rescheduling, and add-ons happen in chats and then require manual schedule updates.

05

You manage capacity or multiple providers

You need limits for simultaneous bookings or people and services connected to one or more providers.

06

You want customers to self-book

Your branded site presents the service, price, availability, and questions, then records booking and payment.

Examples: Salons · Clinics · Physical therapy · Pilates and yoga · Academies · Cleaning · Car washes · Consulting · Chalets

A connected booking journey

From service setup to appointment completion, every step stays tied to the booking

This is the daily journey for customers and staff—not a standalone calendar.

  1. 01

    Configure the service and availability rules

    Set duration, providers, capacity, buffer, branch, price, deposit, and booking window.

  2. 02

    Publish it on your branded site

    Present the description, images, prices, available times, and custom questions under your identity.

  3. 03

    The customer selects an appointment

    They choose the service, provider when enabled, time, and required details—or staff record an inbound booking.

  4. 04

    Collect the deposit or payment

    Connect the payment method, paid and remaining amounts, and invoice to the booking under the enabled setup.

  5. 05

    Send confirmation and reminders

    Customer and team receive updates through enabled channels instead of separate manual follow-up.

  6. 06

    Manage changes and attendance

    Update the appointment and attendance or cancellation status according to policy and permissions.

  7. 07

    Review history and reports

    Bookings, payments, invoices, and customer history stay together for the next action.

Booking logic

Not every booking works the same way—identify the model that actually controls your time

Rekaz calculates availability from service setup, while full-day, mobile-location, and complex resource bookings require scenario review.

Appointment

One-to-one provider appointment

A defined duration, eligible providers, buffer, booking window, and optional customer provider choice.

For salons, clinics, consulting, and specialist services
Capacity

Group or capacity-based booking

Set simultaneous booking and maximum person limits according to product configuration.

For classes, workshops, and some group activities after testing capacity rules
Resource or location

Full-day or customer-location booking

May require different location, resource, and timing fields from a standard appointment, so the flow is reviewed before launch.

Do not assume route planning, room inventory, or a waitlist without verification

Booking schedule

Who has an appointment and when is the provider available?

View bookings by day and provider and record inbound bookings in the same schedule.

Confirmation and reminder

Did the customer receive the booking update?

When is Rekaz clearer than the booking tools you use today?

You may continue using WhatsApp or Google Calendar with Rekaz, but each tool has a different role.

A customer story about self-booking
“After registering with Rekaz, the customer no longer needs to contact me directly. They have a booking link, see what is available, choose a time, and book immediately.”

01

The problem he wanted to solve

Every booking depended on direct contact with the owner to ask about availability and confirm a time.

02

The change he described

Customers can now see availability and book directly from the link. We do not attribute a measured drop in calls or increase in bookings because no validated measurement is available.

Clarity before you choose

What should be verified before running bookings?

Availability, payment, and cancellation behavior differ by business. We review these points before you rely on the setup.

01

Conflict prevention depends on correct setup

One schedule reduces cross-channel collision, but we do not guarantee zero conflicts without testing duration, capacity, providers, buffers, and staff recording behavior.

02

Cancellation, changes, and refunds follow your policy

Define who can change a booking, deadlines, fees, and refunds. Do not assume every policy is enforced automatically in the same way.

03

WhatsApp messaging depends on plan and setup

Confirm message types, templates, sender number, balance or cost, and the connection method before activation.

04

Payment provider fees are separate from Rekaz commission

Rekaz does not take a percentage of bookings, but payment or installment providers may apply their own contractual fees.

05

Full-day and mobile bookings require matching

Full-day, customer-location, or complex-resource bookings may need different fields and rules. Do not assume route planning, room inventory, or waitlists.

06

Migration and integrations depend on data and plan

Customer import, API booking creation, and calendar or external tool connections require field, plan, and technical scope review.

A structured start

How do you move from notebooks and chats to one booking schedule?

We do not promise one timeline for every business; timing depends on services, providers, branches, data, and integrations.

  1. 1

    Map the current booking journey

    Booking sources, services, duration, providers, capacity, payment, communication, and change policy.

  2. 2

    Configure availability and products

    Set working hours, duration, buffer, branch, price, deposit, and required customer questions.

  3. 3

    Review data and integrations

    Inspect customer data, calendars, and systems that need to move or connect and define their scope.

  4. 4

    Test both sides of the booking

    Test customer and staff booking, payment, messaging, changes, and attendance before fully switching.

Decision questions

Direct answers before choosing booking management software

These questions repeatedly appeared across 217 demos with appointment and reservation businesses.

Review plans and pricing
How does Rekaz stop website and WhatsApp bookings from taking the same slot?

All recorded bookings use the same availability schedule. Staff must enter phone and WhatsApp bookings in Rekaz and configure duration, provider, capacity, and buffer, then test the scenario before launch.

Can availability differ for each provider?

Services can be linked to eligible providers and working hours. Customers may be allowed to select a provider and see the provider name. Review schedules and branches for each setup.

Can one booking use more than one provider?

The booking product guide shows an option allowing customers to select more than one provider for the same booking. Test availability and duration calculations for this scenario.

Does Rekaz support group or capacity-based bookings?

You can define simultaneous booking and maximum-person limits. Test the actual capacity rules before publishing the service.

How do deposits and remaining balances work?

A booking product can include a price and deposit with enabled payment methods. Confirm how remaining balance, invoice, and refund behavior work in your configuration.

Can customers reschedule or cancel themselves?

Customer permissions, deadlines, fees, and update messages depend on configuration and business policy. We review the scenario rather than assuming every change or refund is automatic.

Does it support customer-location services or full-day bookings?

Custom fields can collect additional information, but location, service-area, full-day, and resource logic differ. Test the flow first; route planning is not implied.

Can customers be migrated or bookings created through an API?

Customer import and integration through the documented API can be reviewed. Booking endpoints and available fields depend on the current API, plan, and data quality.

How much does it cost and what may cost extra?

Cost depends on plan, capabilities, and add-ons. Review pricing and request written confirmation for messaging, payment, integrations, and custom setup fees.
